"A team of 5 came the day after I hired Gray’s to remove an aging magnolia tree and its stump, trim another magnolia, a lilac and a forsythia, and remove overgrown greenery encroaching on my backyard from the park behind my house. It took about an hour and I was quoted $1800 with a $100 discount for cash. This team did not remove the stump and fill in the hole with dirt and sod within 2-3 days as written on the work order. They told me to hold back $200 to be paid upon completion of the work. No one came to complete the stump removal. After a week I texted, emailed and called (left a voice message). No response. I believe they never intended to remove the stump."

We provide free estimates and we look forward to earning your business!

"Mike and his crew helped replace our old and decrepit deck with a concrete brick paver patio. Throughout the whole process, they were a joy to work with. Not only was their price very reasonable (it came in between two other quotes), Mike also took his time to explain what to look for in a paver patio and what design elements would fit our vision. He also educated us on the installation process of the patio from the very beginning. Once the construction started, it went much quicker than we had expected. And throughout the process, Mike continued to communicate with us changes that needed to be made based on the elevation of our yard. He always gave us choices on the changes, and we often consulted him on the better choice. Because we were working from home, we were able to observe Mike and his crew working on the patio. It was very clear that Mike took great care with the little details to make the patio perfect. Based on the similar care his crew members showed, it was clear that Mike also imparted the importance of quality work to them. Work quality aside, Mike was also wonderful and respectful from the first time we talked. When we first met, he was kind enough to wear a mask when he saw that I was also wearing a mask. I truly appreciated his understanding in my desire to keep myself and family safe. I also appreciate his effort in learning to pronounce and use my name - itâ s not something that other contractors even attempted. My wife also enjoyed talking to Mike. Specifically, she appreciated that Mike treated her and I with the same amount of respect. Her experience with most contractors is often unpleasant because they would talk around her or dismiss her questions or suggestions. Mike, however, listened to her input and respected her decisions. We are very satisfied with the result, and more important, we enjoyed our interactions with Mike throughout the entire process of the project. In fact, we have already started talking to Mike about returning at a later time to landscape our front lawn. We would highly recommend MAC Landscaping and Design to anyone wanting someone who values quality workmanship and a pleasant work relationship."

We specialize in transforming outdoor spaces into beautiful, functional, and sustainable landscapes that enhance your property's appeal and value. Our deep roots in the community mean we understand the unique horticultural needs and aesthetic preferences of Central Florida, allowing us to deliver exceptional results tailored to our clients.

"I was looking for a company to put turf down at my property through Angie’s List. I was contacted by John Listage from All Pro Landscaping. He convinced me that hydro-seeding was the way to go instead of turf. We made the following agreement: All Pro Landscaping would clean up, mulch and plant new plants in the gardens. They would make sure the irrigation system was working. They agreed to plant an adult Christmas palm in the front yard and hydroseed all the open ground area and straighten the rocks in the front along the property edges. We agreed on the total amount of $4,000, for the complete project, $1,000 to be paid the day he started the job. My first concern started on day one of the job when John asked me to send him $1,500 instead of the $1,000, we had agreed upon. I have the texts to support this. I reminded him that we had agreed to $1,000. John then agreed that yes, he was wrong and that it was only $1,000. He then asked me to Zelle the money to Teneilla Stults instead of to himself or All Pro Landscaping which was another red flag. I did as John asked and sent the $1,000 through Zelle. John then contacted me again at the end of day one, August 15th and said that everything was removed from the flower beds and that they had been treated and that tomorrow, August 16th he would do the planting and put new mulch in the gardens as well as do the hydroseeding of the property. I asked John to make sure that the large bush that was in the front was trimmed back and the pavers were removed in the back of the house when he returned to do the hydroseeding. He agreed that those items would be taken care of. On day two August 16th, John told me that the job was complete. The gardens had been cleaned up and replanted. The sprinkler system was operational, the Christmas Palm was planted and the hydroseeding was complete. I had asked John to send a video of him doing the hydroseeding as he was doing it as this was one of the main reasons I hired him. He did not send a video of the hydroseeding. I had a friend go to my property and check on the project as I am currently in Rochester, NY and was unable to go and check for myself. He made a video call with me to show me the progress. The gardens had been cleared, and new mulch was added. The rocks around the road edge had been moved some but were not straight as was requested. There was a small bush planted in the front yard instead of the Christmas Palm that I had asked for. The large bush in the front had not been cut back as requested. The ground that was supposed to be hydroseeded had not been raked and no hydroseeding was evident. My friend said that it looked like maybe some seed had been tossed on the ground. I called John upset and said that the job was not complete. I told him that the pavers hadn’t been removed, the large bush in front had not been trimmed back and that a small bush had been planted in front instead of the adult Christmas Palm we had agreed upon. I also told him that it did not look like any hydroseeding had been done. John became very angry and asked if I was calling him a liar. I told him that I wanted him to go back to the property and complete the job. After some discussion he agreed that he would have his crew finish the things that I had requested. I asked him where the pictures and the video that he had promised with each step of the project were. He said I sent the video. I told him that I had not received any video or pictures from him. I asked him if he had even set foot back on my property during the project and he said he did not have to because he had full faith in his crew. John was very rude and disrespectful. I told him I would not send any more money until he finished the job. He sent his crew out again and replaced the small bush in front and planted the requested Christmas Palm, trimmed the large bush, but not as much as I had asked. Removed the pavers but did not fill in the holes where they had been. John also sent a video that looked like the type of hydroseeding you do with a hose for patch repairs, not really showing the equipment only a small amount of greenish looking liquid that you could see when it hit the sidewalk but could not see it on the ground at all. I called John once again with my concerns, and he again became very angry. He wanted me to send him the remainder of the money for the job. I told him that I was not comfortable with the hydroseeding and that I would send payment when I saw that grass was actually growing which usually takes 5-10 days with hydroseeding. We had some back-and-forth discussion, and I agreed to send him $2000 for the work that had been done, and I told him that I would hold back $1,000 until I saw if the hydroseeded areas began to grow grass. I sent $2,000 to Teneilla Stults again through Zelle as he had requested. When he received the $2,000, John called me again calling me names and threatening that if I held back the $1,000 that something just might happen to all the plants that had been planted and that maybe some weed killer would get to close to the plants and the Palm tree that had been planted. I told him to calm down. I would send the remaining $1,000 as soon as the grass sprouted and I felt comfortable that he had in fact hydroseeded properly. He continued to be upset. He then said just keep the $1,000 and called me some more names. I kept repeating that if the grass did in fact grow, I would be happy to send the remaining balance of $1,000. He was so angry at that point that he said that he would come and rip out every plant that was planted if I sent the money. He was very irrational at this point. I again repeated that if the grass in fact grew, I would send him the $1,000. I then hung up."

FAQs for landscaping projects in Detroit, MI

Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers. 

When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification which include: 

  • The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check

  • Required to have applicable state and local licenses

  • Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review

  • Paying to advertise their services

  • Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

If you want landscaping done but want to save some money on the overall fees, you can do a few things at every stage. Some ways to save money on your landscaping include:

  • Repurpose existing features and materials

  • Softscape instead of hardscape

  • Choose the more inexpensive materials

  • DIY when you can

  • Buy young plants instead of mature ones

If you are an avid DIYer and have plenty of time to dedicate to your yard, doing your own landscaping (or at least some of it) can be an affordable option. Projects like planting a tree, planting grass, laying sod, or building a firepit can realistically be done without the need for a landscaping professional. However, these projects can take considerable time and some landscaping knowledge, so having a pro might save you in the long run.

Projects that are dangerous, like digging with heavy machinery or removing a tree, should always be done by a professional. 

Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:

  • Location

  • Yard size

  • Project size

  • Materials

  • Land preparation

  • Type of landscaping

Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000
