Just east of the Cape
Drive Pine Island Road east past Del Prado and you're in North Fort Myers before you notice the line. The yards change on the way: more Bahia, bigger lots, fewer seawalls. We mow both kinds every week.
Send your address and how big the yard is. We get back to you within one business day.
North Fort Myers is unincorporated Lee County. It sits on the north bank of the Caloosahatchee, across the river from downtown Fort Myers, and it runs right up against Cape Coral's eastern edge. Lots of our customers live on one side of that line and work or have family on the other, so the route goes both ways.
What changes is the ground. Close to the river, places like Lochmoor and Hancock Creek have canal lots that look a lot like the Cape's. Farther north and east, toward Bayshore and Tamiami Trail, homes sit on half an acre or more, often with Bahia, pasture grass, and pines instead of a seawall. A schedule that works for one of those yards doesn't fit the other, so we price and plan each yard by what we see on it. That mix is the main thing that sets lawn care in North Fort Myers apart from the Cape.
Most of our week is still spent in the Cape, a few minutes west. If you own a place there too, see our Cape Coral lawn service page. Same crew, same set-day schedule.
Two kinds of yards
Lochmoor, Hancock Creek, Pine Lakes, Suncoast Estates, and the streets off Business 41
Bayshore Road, Slater Road, and the bigger lots north toward Tamiami Trail
A few things we keep in mind once we cross the line from the Cape.
From late spring through fall, Bahia sends up tall, forked seed stalks within days of a mow. They make a yard look shaggy even when the grass is fine. On Bahia lots in summer, weekly service is what keeps the yard looking freshly cut.
Several communities here have rules about grass height and edging, and some 55+ communities handle mowing through the association. Tell us what your HOA expects and we'll cut to it. If your association already mows, we'll say so instead of selling you a plan you don't need.
Lee County limits fertilizer containing nitrogen or phosphorus from June 1 through September 30. Our weed control follows those rules, and we plan feeding around them instead of trying to push green-up in July.
Many streets drain to roadside swales, and some back lots stay soggy for days after a summer storm. We mow swales when they can be mowed safely and skip ruts-in-waiting, then catch up on the next dry visit.
Same starting prices on both sides of the line. Waterfront, corner, fenced, and obstacle-heavy lots are +$10/month each, and larger acreage is quoted after we see it.
