"Kevin and his dad did a great job of planting 5 Yews for me and laying down new mulch. Kevin was very quick to reply to my phone calls super courteous and very easy to work with. I live in an HOA community and took this project on myself at my own cost. I discussed all this with Kevin and I feel he gave me more than a fair price for the work that he did. I would definitely hire him again. Thanks Patty"

Customers say: Quality work
"I used this landscaping business twice and both times the end result went beyond what I had imagined. I am a person who is aware of design features and studied visual art in my past, and this guy was able to exceed my own ideas. I was overly pleased at the end of both projects. It is my bet that you also will be overly pleased with, not only the quality of the work, but also the absolutely beautiful appearance of Tom's creativity. If you want your home to be a model for hardscape design on your block (as mine is now), I strongly suggest that you consider this landscaper. You will NOT be disappointed. Highly recommended."

"I had a rather complex UNILOCK paver pattern on my twenty year old patio of two interlocking circles. The patio had gone out of level and had sunk on one side due to the ground settling toward the house and tree roots pushing up the blocks. Since these blocks were no longer made and we still loved the design, so I decided to have it repaired by re-leveling the entire patio, rather than having it replaced. Over one and a half days, Solo Landscaping's team lifted and replaced every block after adding gravel and sand to level the foundation of the patio. It looks like new! They worked hard at piecing everything back together, just as the original and cut new pieces where they need to. Great work, very professional, on time and cleaned everything up when done. Highly recommend them!"

"Victor and his team did an amazing job giving our front yard a much needed facelift. We needed a buried downspout and new garden beds. They were communicative, worked quickly, and the end result blew us away! We’ll definitely have them back for more landscaping work."
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.
