43 Florida-licensed landscaping subcontractors serve The Villages (Sumter County). Browse listings below, or create a free* GC account to see phone and email and invite a sub to bid on your RFQ.
Landscape subcontractors install the planted and hardscape elements of a site — soil prep and grading to finish elevations, sod, mulch, annual and perennial planting, trees and palms, and hardscape items like pavers, planters, and retaining walls. On commercial and multifamily jobs they price from the landscape plans and the plant schedule, and coordinate with the irrigation, site-work, and concrete trades around sleeving, finish grade, and the timing of topsoil and planting after the rest of the site is buttoned up.

A landscape RFQ usually references the landscape plans, the plant schedule, and any hardscape details, with a clear scope: plant counts and sizes, sod type and area, mulch type and depth, soil-prep assumptions, and any hardscape units. For bid prep a GC typically wants the quote broken out by plant material, sod, and hardscape so bids compare cleanly, confirmation the sub priced to the schedule, and a note on whether the quote includes the warranty period for plant material, finish grade tolerances, and a maintenance period after substantial completion.
Landscape contracting is not a state-licensed trade in Florida — there is no statewide DBPR landscape-contractor license the way there is for electrical or plumbing work. Florida does license Landscape Architects (LA), but that is a separate design profession regulated under Chapter 481, F.S. — not a contracting license for installation work. Landscape contractors are instead regulated at the county or municipal level: many jurisdictions require a competency card or contractor registration, and general-liability insurance (a current certificate of insurance) is the baseline a GC should confirm. Landscape subs in this directory earn their verified status through the insurance path rather than a license upload.
No. Florida has no statewide landscape-contractor license. Landscape contracting is regulated locally — most counties and cities require a competency card or registration, plus general-liability insurance.
Florida licenses Landscape Architects (LA), which is a design profession regulated under Chapter 481, F.S. That credential is for designers, not for the contractors who install the work. The installation side has no statewide license.
The landscape plans and plant schedule, plant counts and sizes, sod type and area, mulch type and depth, soil-prep assumptions, any hardscape units, and whether a plant-material warranty and post-completion maintenance period are included.
Yes. GCs post an RFQ and invite matched subs by trade and service area; invited subs are notified and can submit a bid for your bid prep.
The badge reflects what was reviewed: a verified state license earns License Verified; a verified certificate of insurance earns Insurance Verified; both earn the Verified Pro umbrella. For trades with no state license, like landscaping, the certificate of insurance is the credential subs upload, so Insurance Verified is the natural badge for the trade.
