The Florida Green Team (FGT) wants to help you make your neighbors jealous. FGT can take any dated, damaged or just plain dull lawn or landscaping and transform it into something you can be proud of and make the people living on your street green (pun intended) with envy.
A full-service property maintenance company, FGT specializes in various landscaping and tree-removal services for both residential and commercial accounts.
Lexington Oaks resident Bob Williams and his son Justin started Florida Green Team last September with a $12,000 investment in one truck and trailer to haul lawn equipment. Since then, the company has blossomed into an easily visible brand in the New Tampa and Wesley Chapel area. Just six months after its inception, Florida Green Team now has six employees, five trucks and a sales car, all wrapped in glossy, bright green, emblazoned with the company’s logo that is all-but impossible to miss.
“It’s all about appearance,” Bob says. “When we show up at a home or a business, everyone is in uniform. The trucks are clean and well-signed. It’s an image. What sets us apart from other landscaping or property maintenance companies is what people see when we drive into a neighborhood and what they see when we’ve finished the job.”
Bob says that FGT’s mission is to provide the highest quality of service at rates that are more than fair. “We go above and beyond for the customer every time,” Justin explains.
And why shouldn’t they, asks Bob, as he attributes more than 50-percent of FGT’s landscaping and tree removal accounts to word-of-mouth.
“When you please your customers, they will bring you more work,” Bob explains.
Plus, when customers are satisfied, there’s a chance that they might let everyone looking for a landscaper know online through websites such as AngiesList.com, where Florida Green Team holds an “A” rating.
Whether it’s simply having your lawn mowed, trees trimmed or having an entire yard replaced and re-landscaped, FGT is the team to call.
“We saw a need for a landscaping company that could perform the highest level of work, focusing on perfection for the New Tampa and Wesley Chapel areas,” Bob explains.
The company actually started because Bob saw the way a landscaping company should not be run. Justin and two friends (who both now work for FGT) were working for a landscaping company, the owner of which, Bob says, had a drug problem and ended up in jail, but never paid his workers.
“So, now these good kids are all out of work,” Bob explains. “They were all struggling to find jobs in a terrible economy. That’s when Justin came to me with the idea to start a company. We decided to take a chance and open this business.”
In addition to being the chief executive officer of FGT, Bob also works for Microsoft as a Lync Solutions Specialist, where he helps build brands.
That’s why you may recognize the FGT logo. Bob says that creating something eye-catching that makes people wonder what the company does is his specialty at Microsoft.
“People will know us when they see us,” he says. “We’re not just a facade. We’re a quality company doing above-quality work, and people can tell.”
A Wesley Chapel resident named Brittney knows the benefits of using FGT for tree removal service.
“I must say, the services provided by Florida Green Team were outstanding,” she says. “I needed to have two oak trees removed from my front yard, as recommended by my Homeowners Association, because the roots were lifting my sidewalk and driveway. My father, who regularly uses (FGT’s) services told me to give them a call.”
Another satisfied local client named Melody says that FGT was able to come out the day after she called to take care of her tree problem.
“They were very professional with fair/reasonable prices,” Melody says. “I feel that they truly went above and beyond. That same week, they had the work finished for me, with new grass put down where the trees used to be, replaced a few extra bad spots (free of charge) with the leftover sod and did an amazing job.”
Another Wesley Chapel resident named Robina sings similar praises.
“Justin and his crew are always on time and professionally dressed,” Robina explains. “Justin has gone out of his way to give me quotes for everything from the re-laying of mulch within my flower beds and removing and trimming of palms to pressure washing. Florida Green Team makes it so I don’t have to worry about anything in my yard; when I come home, it already looks beautiful! They also offer automatic billing or the option to use PayPal. Doing business with them is effortless, and with my busy schedule, I am thankful!”
Bob says that for routine maintenance, FGT will happily service any residence in the New Tampa/Wesley Chapel area and for commercial and landscaping services, the FGT trucks will go anywhere in the Bay area.
“When you need a job done, we’ll get out there and do it right,” he explains. “We’re not here to take advantage of anyone. We’re here to offer good services at good prices that are fair to everybody.”
