"Wow, I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the exceptional service provided by Mike and his team! As a newcomer to the community, I faced some challenges with my HOA approval process to remove a tree. However, Mike went above and beyond to help me navigate the process with ease. He was incredibly patient and understanding, making sure that I had everything I needed to have the issue resolved. The estimate process was a breeze, and Mike promised to handle everything from start to finish, including the final step of cleaning up. True to his word, the tree removal was completed quickly and efficiently, leaving my yard looking pristine. I was also blown away by Mike's extensive knowledge and expertise in the field. When I asked him about the chainsaw he used and how to maintain it, he took the time to educate me on the key factors to keep it performing at its best. He even gave me some additional guidance on trimming smaller trees and removing rooftop mosses, which was incredibly helpful. Overall, I am beyond grateful for Mike's outstanding work and his unwavering patience and kindness throughout the entire process. I highly recommend his services to anyone in need of tree removal or other related services. Thank you, Mike, for your exceptional work and dedication to your craft!"

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
