Do tree removal companies need to be insured?

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.

The Arborist that comes around to do the estimates has been with them for years. They always show up on time and work pretty efficiently. The Arborists all seem very knowledgeable. They do pretty good cleanup and I will continue to use them.
