"Landis Bunton, East Coast Tree Service, LLC, arrived at our home, quickly assessed that the 2 dead trees needed to go and a water oak as dying and should be felled. He quoted $1,000, a remarkably low number based on our past experience, and expected he could do the work in 2 weeks. We called him after 5 days as some of our plans had changed and asked whether he could get to the work sooner. He promised a callback and shortly committed to the next day at 8:30am, exceeding our expectations. Next day on time his bucket truck, chipper, tractor and grinder showed up with a crew of 5-6 very professional workmen who got right to work. They felled the water oak with the bucket truck and ropes so that adjacent structures were not damaged while crews dropped the 2 dead oaks. All wood not chipped was cut to fireplace size and the smaller pieces chipped and left for us. I had done some tree trimming and my wife asked if a little more wood could be cut away which they did at no charge. All workmen I talked with were personable and willing to answer my questions. After 3 hours Landis showed to confirm our satisfaction and receive payment. He offered to deliver more wood chips when he was in the area at no charge. Landis runs a very professional operation, and I recommend him highly."

"I would like to recommend Bulldog Exteriors to everyone. Aaron Harris and his crew pressure washed our entire home, replaced wood rot and wrapped the eaves with aluminum and vinyl. In addition they calked and painted all the doors and windows in our home. After that was a complete replacement of the gutters with larger and screen protected gutters. All paint, vinyl, aluminum, and gutters are color matched to perfection with the color of our choice. All of this worked was priced reasonably for all of the work involved. The only delay was a weather day and a delay in getting the materials in from suppliers. Aaron is a Citadel Graduate and headquartered in Ridgeville. A true local company we should support.

Arboricultural services FAQs

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.

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.

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.

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
