"I am beyond happy with the experience I had with CLC Landscape Design. They went above and beyond, transforming my yard into my own oasis. Eric came on site and brought all the expertise and plant advise that would fit best for my yard. Once the project started he communicated with me when his team would be arriving and the status of the project that day. Once we had everything planned out, he even came back to double check to see if all the plants looked good before they got planted! He was overall super helpful, very professional, and I am beyond satisfied with the results. Thank you Eric and CLC Landscape Design team for all your hard work. Really all I could say is just WOW! I look forward to working with your team again in the future!"

FAQs for fire pit installation projects in Newark, NJ

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
