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. Be sure to <a href="https://www.angi.com/angi-license-check.htm">check our state licensing tool</a> 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: <ul><li>The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check</li><li>Required to have applicable state and local licenses</li><li>Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review</li><li>Paying to advertise their services</li><li>Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi</li></ul>Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.</div>

How much are typical landscaping costs?

<div><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-landscaping-cost.htm">Landscaping costs</a> around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:<ul><li>Location</li><li>Yard size</li><li>Project size</li><li>Materials</li><li>Land preparation</li><li>Type of landscaping</li></ul>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. </div>

Glad I decided to give Mountain Valley a try. I had an emergency cleanup of a fallen tree and debris that needed to be cleaned before the weekend. I called on Wednesday and they arrived Thursday afternoon! they worked until 9pm and they even cut up the tree stump so it could be removed in small...

The entire lawn was done with a string trimmer and done poorly. Grass height ranged from 2" to 4" and some areas not touched. So much for an Angie Coupon. Buyer beware.

This is the second time I have used them, and they will now come out on a regular basis. They are very professional and get the job done. I have given them a list of items I want done and they work on the list each time they come. I highly recommend them.

Excellent. They have a good variety of lawn equipment to cover all situations. This includes a mower that catches the grass so their is nothing left behind. Not many landscapers would care enough about your lawn to have such a mower. They have made our lawn their own.

This provider is punctual, professional and reliable. He works with the client to provide lawn care and consults on treatment for garden pests. He will do as much or as little as the home owner requires.

We have been very pleased with J & J Lawn Care. They respond quickly and efficiently, they do first rate work, and their charges are reasonable. Our lawn looks great, and it's good to know that we can rely on J & J to take care of it.

Great job. Clean looking lawn with a nice edge and no grass on the drive or porches. They arrive when they say they will and focus on getting the job done and getting on their way. They also trim my shrubs and weed my flower beds at different times. I can count on my lawn and shrubbery looking...

The date above is misleading as Anthony has been mowing our yard since last year. He is always punctual, responsive and works hard. He is professional and does a very good job. We have about a half acre yard that he mows and weed eats. Anthony also cleans gutters and spreads mulch. He has...
