careful not to throw anything directly on them. Nothing at all was damaged, and he insisted on coming back later to install standoffs on our ladder so that we wouldn't damage the shingles when going on the roof to work on the antennas (no charge). The crew was super careful with the flashing and waterproofing around the chimney and with the anchors for our amateur radio antennas. They did a great job and were all very professional. The cost was right in the middle of the bids we got, but the deciding factor was and quot;the extra mile.and quot; The service was absolutely top notch "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/va/hampton/roofing-and-exteriors-of-virginia-reviews-7604118.htm"},"position":2},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Bending Bough Nursery and Native Landscape Design","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NH","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Marcia T."},"reviewBody":"Great to work with.

We started using Mary when we moved to our new neighborhood. She was highly recommended by our neighbor that uses her to take care of her high maintenence dogs. Mary arrived at our home to meet us. Not only did she provide us with a professional package detailing her background and services, but she went to on to describe how she worked as a Vet Tech and has landscaping abilities and training. Imagine that.... Not only does she take care of your pets, but also your plants! We were most impressed to the attention Mary gives to security... After all, you are away from home when she is watching your pets. She does an outstanding job of making sure your house is secure and there are no disasters in your home while you are away. We have a difficult cat that requires daily medication (which he hates) and has constipation issues. It is such a relief to be able to go away and know that everything is fine. Mary closely monitors health issues and is able to deal with these situations. She has a very calming way about her that even our difficult one responds well to. She takes the extra time to play and just be around your pets. She even sends me texts and pictures while i'm away from my "boys". Her references are outstanding, as I have checked many of them. She is very accomodating,,,, even at the last minute! I trust her completely, not just with my "babies", but my home as well. If you use Mary you will never need another pet sitter!

FAQs for plant watering projects in Peterborough, NH
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.
Lawn irrigation is the process of getting water to your lawn, grass and all, for it to grow. There are five main types of lawn irrigation methods:
Manual irrigation puts you in charge of the flow of water. Using a sprinkler head on your hose is best to evenly distribute the water across your entire lawn. This doesn’t take much time but requires you to be physically outside holding the hose.
Above-ground sprinklers attach to your hose and rotate or oscillate around your lawn. Since these are above-ground, they’ll need to be moved when it’s time to mow, and depending on the size of your property, you might need to move it around your yard for full coverage.
In-ground sprinklers are flush with the ground when not in use but pop up above the ground level when it's time to water the lawn. Piping for these sprinklers is all found underground, and there are different types of sprinkler heads for different uses and lawn sizes.
Drip irrigation involves drip lines that are more efficient than sprinklers for more extensive lawns. This involves a lot of digging since they are installed underground, but it makes it easy for you to mow.
Rainwater collection and irrigation uses nature’s precipitation to water your lawn. This option might not be available in every area since semi-reliable rainfall is needed, though the barrels for this system can range from 15 gallons to 10,000 gallons or more.
The cost of a lawn sprinkler system is $2,550 for the average homeowner. However, this price can range from $350 to $5,000 or more, depending on the type of sprinkler system you install, the size of your yard, and the type of sprinkler heads you choose. For example, rotating or oscillating sprinkler heads are more expensive than stationary ones, making the cost for one sprinkler head $2.50 to $30 each. Likewise, a yard that is 1/4 of an acre in size averages a total average price of $2,460; however, a one-acre yard averages a cost of $9,840.
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.
