Your Estate, Managed
the Way It Was Built.
Year-round outdoor property management for Southwest Florida estates. One contractor, one standard, one point of contact — with a permanent, growing record of everything done to your property.
The Team That Built It
No other outdoor management company can say this. If PLD designed and built your environment, the crew that engineered your drainage, planted your beds, and wired your lighting is the crew caring for it. We know every zone, every plant, every run.
One Contractor. One Standard.
No handoffs. No new relationships to build. Whether you're an existing PLD client or enrolling for the first time, you get a single point of contact who already holds the highest standard in the market.
Outdoor Property Management
This is not a mowing service. We manage your outdoor environment the way a property manager manages a building — documenting every system, tracking every issue from flag to resolution, and protecting your investment's value year over year.
Your Property, Fully Documented From Day One.
At onboarding, we build a complete property map — every bed, every plant species and quantity, every irrigation zone and head location, every drainage run, every landscape light fixture. Not notes. A living document.
Updated every visit. Accessible from your estate portal anytime. When you sell, you hand the buyer a record no other property can match.
- Plant inventory with species, quantity, install date, and bed location
- 90-day plant warranty registry — active and expired status tracked
- Irrigation zone map with head positions and controller schedule
- Drainage layout — catch basins, runs, and discharge points
- Landscape lighting positions, fixture types, and zone assignments
- Bed dimensions and mulch coverage tracking
- Monthly progression photos — same spots, every visit
When you sell, you hand the buyer a complete property record.
Every plant. Every drainage run. Every light fixture. Documented from the first day of the program. No other seller can offer this.
Everything That Happened on Your Property. In One Place.
A private, password-free portal delivered via a link to your inbox. See what was done, when, and by whom. Review progression photos month by month. Track any open issues from flag to resolution.
Change orders are quoted and approved in one tap — no phone calls, no email chains. Monthly property reports are archived here indefinitely.
- Last visit summary with all services performed
- Progression photo timeline — same spots, every visit
- Plant warranty registry — every installed plant tracked
- Issue tracker from flag → quoted → approved → resolved
- Change order approval and Stripe payment in one step
- Monthly property report archive (PDF)
The Non-Negotiable Baseline

Turf fertilizer 3×/year, palm fertilizer 4×/year, pre-emergent 2×/year. Routine pest monitoring and treatment — subcontracted to a licensed specialist.
Irrigation Management
Seasonal controller adjustments twice yearly. Post-rain wet checks after significant weather events. Issues flagged immediately.
Drainage Monitoring
Catch basin and run inspections every visit. Annual cleanout included. Issues flagged with photo documentation — the same crew that designed your drainage knows every run.

Services Outside the Program
The following are quoted and approved before any work begins. Because scope and cost vary significantly by property, these stay as separate line items — always transparent, never a surprise.
Palm Trimming
Priced per palm by height. SWFL-specific timing pre-hurricane season. Quoted annually and scheduled on request.
Paver Recompaction & Repair
Settled or shifting pavers require sand recompaction and re-leveling. Prevents drainage issues and trip hazards.
Paver & Surface Sealing
Sealing driveways, pool decks, patios, and walkways. Recommended every 2–3 years for SWFL conditions.
Pressure Washing
Driveways, walkways, pool cages, screen enclosures, and exterior surfaces. Priced by square footage.
Mold & Surface Cleaning
Sliding door tracks, screen frames, pool cage interiors, and glass panels. Common in SWFL's humid climate.
BBQ & Outdoor Kitchen Cleaning
Deep cleaning of built-in grills, burner components, and outdoor kitchen surfaces. Recommended twice annually.
Wood Treatment & Sealing
Sauna exteriors, pergolas, decking, and wood screen structures. SWFL humidity degrades untreated wood rapidly.
Pool Service
We coordinate a trusted subcontractor and manage the relationship as part of your program — one less vendor to manage.
Plant Replacement
Material cost plus 30%. Species sourced for SWFL salt tolerance and light conditions. Replacement driven by your approval.
Major Hardscape or Drainage Work
Repairs, new installations, or drainage modifications fall under a separate design-build proposal — not a maintenance change order.
Half-Acre Estate Reference
Pricing is quoted after a site walk — no two estates are identical. The following reflects a typical half-acre property in Naples or Fort Myers with a standard planting program.
All programs billed annually, divided into 12 equal monthly ACH payments.
| Service | Essential | Care | Reserve |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly program investment | $2,000$24,000 / year | $3,000$36,000 / year | $5,000$60,000 / year |
| Mow visits per year | 44 | 44 | 44 |
| Hand trimming | Change order | Light every visit + full monthly | Light every visit + full monthly |
| Irrigation head audit | Change order | Quarterly | Quarterly |
| Mulch refresh | Change order | 1× / year (up to 50 bags) | 2× / year (up to 60 bags ea.) |
| Post-storm debris | Change order | Up to 4 hrs | Up to 8 hrs |
| Irrigation repairs | Change order | Change order | Up to $200 / year |
| Thomas walkthrough | — | Quarterly | Monthly |
| Onboarding fee | One-time fee | One-time fee | Included |
| Scheduling | Standard (3–5 days) | 48-hour response | Dedicated crew, 24-hr priority |
These figures reflect a half-acre residential estate with a standard planting density. Larger properties, multi-acre estates, or properties with extensive irrigation infrastructure are priced individually. A site walk with Thomas is required before any program proposal is issued.
Four Steps to Year-Round Estate Management
Site Walk
Thomas walks the property. We assess current condition, identify any pre-enrollment issues, and determine the right program tier.
Program Proposal
You receive a written program proposal with exact pricing, included services, and contract terms. No pressure. No expiration.
Onboarding
We map your irrigation system, document your plant inventory, photograph your estate, and set up your portal. First visit within 7 days.
Annual Autopay
Annual contract billed monthly via ACH. No invoices. No surprises. One flat charge, first of each month.
"Every enrollment starts with a site walk. I review each property personally before any program is proposed — this is how we hold the standard."
— Thomas Gow, Precision Landscaping & Design
