Finished tropical landscaping with layered plantings and fresh green lawn

Project Transformations

Before & After

Real Sarasota yards, real crews, real results — see what a Collica's plan looks like from the first day of sand to the final walk-through.

Before & After

Every yard has a before

Overgrowth, debris, bare sand, thin turf — this is what our crews pull up to every week. Every slider below shows the exact same spot, before we started and after we finished.

After: the same two-story home with finished tropical beds, palms, and paver driveway Before: the same two-story home on cleanup day, with a debris trailer in the driveway Before After
Same front yard: cleanup day to finished tropical beds and paver drive
After: the same white ranch home with its new paver driveway and finished foundation beds Before: the same white ranch home mid-project, with paver pallets on the lawn Before After
Same home: paver delivery day to the finished driveway and beds
After: the same waterfront backyard with fresh sod, paver walkway, and dock Before: the same waterfront backyard on dig day, with sand piles and tools by the seawall Before After
Same canal backyard: dig day to fresh sod along the seawall

Drag any slider left or right — day-one conditions on one side, the finished Collica's build on the other.

Curb Appeal

Front entrances & driveways

Paver driveways, curved walkways, and layered beds that make the front of the house the best view on the street.

Landscape Lighting

The yard doesn't sleep at sundown

Low-voltage lighting turns the same beds you see by day into an evening showpiece — lit paths, glowing palms, and fountains that shine after dark.
