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.

Got an estimate, the person they sent was not a certified arborist and gave me misinformation about a diseased tree. Another company sent a certified arborist and he determined the problem after doing some tests. I did not engage them to do the work
