A code enforcement notice comes with a deadline and daily fines. We clear the property, complete the required corrections, and get you compliant before the fines stack up.
A code enforcement notice is not a landscaping problem — it is a deadline with money attached. Most Southwest Florida municipalities give a short correction window, then begin assessing fines per day until the property passes re-inspection. On a vacant lot or an unoccupied rental, those fines can run for weeks before anyone notices.
H&M Prestige Lawn Care handles code enforcement and violation compliance work across Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Naples, Sarasota, and the surrounding area. We read the actual notice, scope the work to exactly what the city is citing, and prioritize the job against the correction deadline. Overgrown lots, tall grass, accumulated brush and debris, dead or missing required plant material, unpermitted overgrowth into rights-of-way — we clear it and correct it.
This is a common problem for property managers, out-of-town owners, landlords between tenants, banks and asset managers holding vacant property, and commercial sites where a landscape plan was never fully installed or has since died back. In every case the fix is the same: correct it fast, document it, and where it makes sense, put the property on a maintenance schedule so the notice never comes back.
Handled by dedicated crews with commercial-grade equipment, on a schedule you can plan around.
Knock down tall grass, weeds, and overgrowth to meet municipal height limits.
Haul away the accumulated brush, debris, and material that triggered the citation.
Clear fallen limbs, dead trees, and growth encroaching on walks, signage, or rights-of-way.
Replace dead or missing plantings where a landscape plan or ordinance specifies them.
Photos and records of the completed work for your file and for re-inspection.
Optional recurring service so the property stays within code permanently.
We read the actual citation so the scope matches exactly what the city is requiring — nothing missed, nothing padded.
We tell you honestly whether the correction date is achievable and what it takes to hit it.
Crews complete the clearing and corrections, with all debris hauled off the property.
We document completion for your records, and can keep the property maintained so it does not recur.
We schedule against the deadline on your notice. Clearing and cleanup work can often begin within a few days. Send us the notice and we will tell you plainly whether the correction date is achievable — we would rather be honest up front than miss it.
Tall grass and overgrown weeds exceeding municipal height limits, accumulated brush and debris, unmaintained vacant lots, dead or missing required plant material from an approved landscape plan, and vegetation encroaching on sidewalks or rights-of-way.
Yes, and it is a large part of this work. Vacant lots, rentals between tenants, and properties held by out-of-state owners, banks, or asset managers are the most common code enforcement cases we handle. Send the address and we handle it from there.
Yes. Commercial code cases often involve a landscape plan that was never fully installed or has died back, which means replacing specific required plant material rather than just clearing. We handle both the clearing and the plan-compliant replanting.
Yes. We provide photos and records of the completed work for your file, which is useful for re-inspection and for demonstrating good-faith correction if fines are being contested.
Yes. Recurring maintenance is the cheapest way to never receive a second notice — particularly on vacant lots and properties you do not visit regularly.
