The crew of three arrived on time and, after speaking with me about the work to be done and answering my questions, began their work. The arborist, who was also the foreman, was knowledgeable and helpful. The trees look great!
- Irva G.
We had four large trees that needed to be trimmed and lightened. One had a bough that was beginning to split, that had us a little worried. Mr. Peddicord came out and looked over the trees. He explained the process of cabling the split bough and then explained why he didn't recommend it,...

Shirley is very nice and helpful. John came out quickly and gave us some advice as to some of the other projects we might need done. The trees were there one morning and gone that afternoon with very little mess. There was a little misunderstanding (we wanted the trees mulched and the mulch...

TLC Lawn Sprinkler
TLC Lawn Sprinkler
"My experience with TLC Inc. was a very positive one! I had a well/cistern that was leaking onto my lawn. Apparently the drainage system had deteriorated over the years. Mr. Drew Hall came out to look and discuss the project. When we later met at TLC to discuss solutions, Mr. Hall clearly explained what has to be done and showed me photos of a similar project. Mr. Hall also worked efficiently with my town’s public works and the county agency to create a system that was satisfactory for all. As the work progressed, Mr. Hall diligently kept me updated. Now, my lawn is dried out, instead of being a swamp. I recommend TLC Inc. for any water-related issues! Thank you, Mr. Hall!"

"Devin and his crew were awesome to work with. I got estimates from 5 companies( landscapers, graders, and combo) with varying recommendations to solve the runoff problem coming from my neighbors uphill. Devin had the best solution and came in at a fair price. I’m so glad I chose him! He came out promptly and was very communicative. He did excellent work, beyond what I had imagined. Devin and his crew members would check in with me during the project to ask what I thought of the various stages. I wanted to slope the grade a little differently in one area and they did it quickly. I have several other projects and would gladly work with Devin again."

FAQs for arboricultural service projects in Columbia, MD
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.
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.
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.
