Should landscapers be certified or licensed?

<div>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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">check our state licensing tool</a> 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: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul>Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

This is the second time I used them to fix a main water leak. The only thing that could make my experience better is if they paid me. These young men were fast, efficient and cleaned up like it never happened. OUTSTANDING - 5 Stars doesnâ t express their work well enough

Salesman, and installers were the best. The person that does the scheduling was rude, couldn't give the correct times. If he would have been nicer and more informative, our experience would have been fantastic instead of very good.

They came out when they said they would. They installed the way they said they will install it. It was done and when the radon was tested it was well below the specification needed to sell the house.
