We are committed to excellence in every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty, and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.
"We recently moved to a home that came with a list of deferred maintenance, and we wanted to make a few changes to it as well. Although we’re perfectly able to do (most) of the work ourselves, we had enough to do packing and unpacking boxes as well as working full time. So we asked around about handyman services in our area and were lucky enough to be given Lucas’ name. Lucas was responsible and did a great job! Before we scheduled time, we sent him a list of tasks we wanted him to handle such as installing a mailbox and post, fixing boards on the deck and staining it, insulating AC lines, sealing holes in the exterior of the home, installing inside handrails, changing light fixtures, and installing closet rods and shelves. He came when he said he would and had the tools he needed for the job. He referred to the list we had sent and efficiently and neatly worked through it. He was pleasant to have in our home and treated it with respect. We will definitely use him again!"

"I paid 1/2 down 9 months in advance for a decent size repair job after electricians dug in cables. The job was to fill voids and hydroseed. After they were finished there we still trench and 25% of the hydroseeding was not complete. I tried to get Mike to look at the job by contacting him via phone call and email. The work was to be completed in May. On June 14th after several emails and voicemails, he told me he would come over to review the project one evening. He never showed up and in September after not hearing anything else from him I got a bill for the remainder of the project. When I too, d Mike the project was never completed he spoke with other people that told him it was completed. It is very hard to discuss what is growing 5 months after a project was supposed to be completed. We had to pay others to do the work and some of the work was done by people here. I would never recommend Mike Hvezda or Rockwood Landscaping. Buyer beware!"

FAQs for arboricultural service projects in Nelson, MN
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.
