"Jessica- the Owner- came to my house to give me an estimate for clearing my front yard, installing landscaping fabric to prevent weeds, removing old bushes, planting new bushes, and finishing with a new landscaping design, including plants, mulch, and pea pebbles. I also had her crew trim a Crepe Myrtle Tree that was over 2 stories high. Jessica and her crew finished the entire project in 1 day! Some of her crew worked for more that 12 hours, until the yard was completely finished in only 1 day!! The crew Within hours of the yard being completely done, several of my neighbors came over, and they all really liked the design of the yard. I am very pleased with how the yard turned out!! I would definitely highly recommend Jessica and her company, A Woman Can Landscaping and Gardening."

"I highly recommend Lawn Services by a Veteran! I had requested quotes from other larger companies in the area and hadn t heard back from them over the span of a week or two. Within 5 minutes of going through home advisor Eric called me and was ready to come cut my grass the same day! We waited a week instead and even though it rained yesterday, he still got out here early today and had the whole yard cut and edged up in an hour! He will definitely be helping us out with our lawn from now and on. He s also reasonably priced and does good honest work! Make sure you tip him because he deserves it."

"Nothing short of excellent. Landon was extremely educated, informative, prompt, and did exactly what he said he was going to do. He showed up on time and got my irrigation system up and running as if it was never down in the first place. Very fair price and outstanding quality work. Will definitely be using Smithfield irrigation from here on out. He also informed me he does full scale landscaping work as well which is always a plus as a one stop shop for all of my landscaping needs to get my yard looking pristine. 10/10 recommend using him for any and all things landscaping related!"

FAQs for landscaping projects in Wakefield, VA

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.

If you want landscaping done but want to save some money on the overall fees, you can do a few things at every stage. Some ways to save money on your landscaping include:

  • Repurpose existing features and materials

  • Softscape instead of hardscape

  • Choose the more inexpensive materials

  • DIY when you can

  • Buy young plants instead of mature ones

If you are an avid DIYer and have plenty of time to dedicate to your yard, doing your own landscaping (or at least some of it) can be an affordable option. Projects like planting a tree, planting grass, laying sod, or building a firepit can realistically be done without the need for a landscaping professional. However, these projects can take considerable time and some landscaping knowledge, so having a pro might save you in the long run.

Projects that are dangerous, like digging with heavy machinery or removing a tree, should always be done by a professional. 

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
