"Crown Pavers deserves 10 stars! From start to finish, this team was absolutely top-notch. As a family-owned business, they take real pride in their work, and it shows in every detail. The level of customer service they provide is unmatched! I reached out to Danny and Manny with a large yard project on short notice after running into issues with other subcontractors. These guys truly saved the day! They got us scheduled that same week, provided a competitive bid immediately, and had materials ordered in time—something no other subcontractor on my entire project even came close to matching. Their responsiveness and professionalism were next level! Danny was hands-on throughout the process, always available and willing to help. His integrity and reliability stood out, which is rare in my experience with construction projects. If anything needed adjusting or fixing, it was never an issue—he made sure everything was done to perfection. Beyond their incredible service, the quality of their work speaks for itself. No hidden costs, no surprises—just excellent craftsmanship and a team that truly stands by their word. I highly recommend Crown Pavers to anyone looking for paver or masonry work! In fact, I was so impressed that I referred my parents, and they’re currently having their entire backyard done by Crown Pavers. They’re just as thrilled with the work as I am! Thank you so much—I couldn’t be happier with my stunning travertine pavers!"

Arboricultural services FAQs
Yes, you will want to confirm that the tree removal company you hire is insured before proceeding with the job. Tree removal can be dangerous work, and it's important to verify that the company carries the proper insurance to cover any onsite accidents or damage.
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

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.

On average, removing a tree costs around $750, but you can expect to pay between $200 to $2,000. Factors that impact the overall cost include the number of trees you’re having removed, their height, the diameter of their trunks, permits needed, and the tree’s accessibility. You’ll pay more if the tree is in a hard-to-reach area or dangerous location, like close to power lines.
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.
