"We are very pleased with the paving work Isaac of That Guy Landscaping did in our yard. He installed 650 square feet of pavers to make a walkway and three large patio areas on yard that had formerly been covered with landscape rock. He also installed new irrigation piping and lines. Isaac is pleasant to work with, meticulous, competent, and competitively priced. Compared to other companies that gave us quotes for the same work, Isaac was a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend."

With over 20 years of experience, I've learned the best methods to withstand our desert. I love to create landscapes that preserve natural beauty and enhance curb appeal. I live, breathe and sleep landscaping."

"What went well is the question here: EVERYTHING! We’ve known Craig, the owner and Christian, the supervisor and Craig’s right hand man, for over 7ish years. They created our first front and back yard. Then we had to move from that lovely oasis they created and we called Craig, Craig!! We need help! Our new home had been neglected: palm trees dead and dying, about 18 leaks in irrigation system, turf that hadn’t been laid right and many empty spots all over where the last owners had pulled out plants and left holes and piping sticking up! And we are semi-professional bird watchers. ?. Our yard had nothing to attract birds; turf and barely there rocks. Can you say, “ boring, blank, scary… Say hello to all these “prison like block walls” that AZ seemingly loves?? Ugh! Craig, Christian and 2-3 workers were as always PROFESSIONALS! You can call me OCD, and I won’t argue. Every single thing you can ask for, they do! Every single rock was in place ( I’m not exaggerating, I caught someone moving two little river rocks!). After talking with you to help your vision, my husband went with Craig to the nursery having fun picking out plants and trees together. Don’t worry, Craig teaches you what plants are hardy and withstand the heat ( Heat, seriously? No Way!!) He has always guided us in how and when to water, prune and fertilize for every season, because let’s face it , just about every one of us needs guidance; this heat is brutal, the monsoons look like they’ve left us and the dirt is bone dry. Craig texts you a week later to see if all is well and then one month later he comes to look at everything to be sure you’re still loving your new green paradise. You know, I could tell you all about everything they did, new irrigation for front and back, rocks too, mounds for contrast, plants and trees up the whazoo,, but everyone’s projects are different. I think I should tell you about the amazing AZ landscapers ( and creators) These men work tirelessly, not once did we see anyone on their phones! EVERYTHING they do is carried out like it was their own yard! Perfection, PERFECTION! And Craig and Christian are a step away if you have a question or a concern. They believe in making the yard of YOUR dreams. But listen, for the people who don’t have a dream or hot desire but you just know SOMETHING has to be done on your yard, you’re in good hands. Craig knows how to guide you and create for you. Speaking of working with you, Craig took every one of our 30 some plants and two trees and while still in their pots, laid them out in the yard where he thought we might like, then we had him move a few things around to eyeball it and decide what we liked best! There is a reason why we called Craig after 7 years again, because he created WITH us. He can help you even if you have no idea where to start. He is really knowledgeable about plants, rocks, irrigation systems ( they put a whole new system in) grass, turf, pavers, flag stones, river beds, upscale backyard grill or fireplace area etc. He knows all of the nurseries and has professional relationships with them. Craig has been doing this for 30 some years here! So he’ll be honest with you about that one plant you really want but it’s not going to survive, he’ll tell you if something you’re planning to do might not be beneficial to you. He’s got a great sense of humor and is a joy to be around. Both times when the yards were finished I hated to see them go ( Craig always got a hug)! They don’t over promise and under deliver! No hidden costs or surprises here! These guys love their work and I’m not being untruthful when I tell you, it shows! You CAN NOT find a better company with good prices to work magic in your yard! We have a big _ss pool and I really hate it, but my grandkids love it. It takes up so much space and I’m a nature loving fool. I didn’t think there was much Craig could do for our yard as we sat out back staring at “prison walls”. His remedy?? VINES that will cover these drab ugly walls with yellowish reddish flowers and bring back the birds! I can’t wait to see them take off! Well…have I convinced you that Craig and his team at AZ Nativescapes is THE one to pick?? If not, then I don’t know how much more I can say! LOL. But seriously guys, you can’t go wrong to trust your yard with them! We’ve made a friend for life with Craig and I’ll never trust anyone else to create my yard. Call them right now. It’s never too hot to get going, they’ll make sure your plants will thrive, you can trust them. Thanks for reading it all! ?"

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.
Landscapers typically charge $50 to $80 per person per hour, which equals around $150 to $240 per hour for a three-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.
Licensing requirements vary from state to state and by locality. It's always best to check with your local University Extension Service to find out which services require licensing.
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
Saving money on a landscape project starts by breaking the project up in segments or phases. Start with the site work, digging or adding soils. Then plant the larger "anchor" plantings. Then follow up with the smaller fill in shrubs or flowers. Lastly, add decorative items like boulders, rock mulch and low voltage landscape lighting. This way you can budget the project based on your time and money.
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.
Yes, landscaping and lawn care can be done by anyone. Just like baking, anyone can do it, but are the results good and worth the effort? Hiring a professional makes sense when doing complex work such as drainage, treating insects and disease, and pruning trees over 20 feet tall, etc. Some of these things require special licensing, such as pruning large trees. Getting multiple estimates from well-regarded professionals can help you decide the best choices for a DIY project or hiring 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.
