"It went really well. They were there when they said they were going to be. They left an accurate time line for how long the job is going to take and completed it within that estimated amount of time. They basically listened to everything I said that I wanted and it came out perfectly and as we expected. We're really happy with them taking what we anted and what we said we wanted and actually making it happen. Our Sales person, Ben Brown, did a really good job leasing between the workers. He's very attentive, listened to everything that we wanted and oversaw the job very well."

19 employees. No subs. Cost is determined by the job. Travel charges may apply. Additional Contact - Steve. Award winning.

"First it was all good but then the lillies came back up in the new grass. When I contacted them they said it would cost another $350 after I already spent over $2000 for what was suppose to be then care of. Talked to Steve after 2 weeks of waiting to hear back from him and basically it was sorry but too bad. I am 70 yr old so I'm digging them out myself and will fill in the dirt and seed again. Just hard to find good customer service even when you look on line for good ratings. Apparently they don't stand by their work."

Ladd Scape is an award-winning landscape design/ build firm located in Mooresville, Indiana. Our team speacializes in several aspects of outdoor living construction including hardscape, landscape, concrete and design.

"We are beyond pleased with the work that Kevin and his team provided for us. They created a beautiful paver patio with fire pit, a gorgeous boulder and river rock bank, and completed with a matching paver patio and walkway to our pavilion. We had originally planned a retaining wall but when Kevin found that wasn’t structurally feasible he quickly pivoted to the boulders and plantings that are prettier even than the original plan. We now have our perfect backyard oasis! Thanks Kevin @ Laddscape and team!!!"

Established in 2005, Angel Oak Tree Care is a family-owned and operated tree care company that aims to serve the greater Indianapolis communities and its surrounding areas. We provide expert services in all facets of Tree Care, pruning, and triage.

"Sadly, my negative experience seems to mirror those of some others who have commented about this vendor. On July 1st, I scanned the site to find vendors for a simple project of removing a small stump and light tree trimming in my yard. Although this wasn't the primary vendor I viewed online, their name did come up as an additional option to consider after I submitted my initial request. I agreed to include this vendor with my quote request by selecting their name from the pop-up menu and was pleasantly surprised that they dropped by my house the very next day and left a handwritten quote on a 2-ply letterhead form in my mailbox while I was gone at the office. I did think it was odd that they didn't schedule an appointment, but their bid was very competitive compared to some others and they seemed eager to do the work based on their promptness of the quote. On July 5th, I decided to email them on their Angie's List email that I selected their firm for the project and asked to be contacted for scheduling. After waiting 5 days after that with no response, I called the cell phone number left on the written quote in addition to their main office number, left voicemails on each but never received responses. The next day, I left a text message on the cell number, but there was no response to that either. Finally on July 18th (16 days after receiving their original quote), I left them another email via their Angie's List site but never heard back. So, I now give up, and I am writing this review for the benefit of others. Their lack of communication is appalling. Based on the positive reviews, it would appear they probably perform quality work once they eventually communicate back with their intent to proceed. However, shame on @AngiesList for allowing vendors like this to opt-in to this type of service only to end up annoying your customer base by not following through with basic expected business practices. My guess is that this small vendor does not have the resource capacity to handle the work requests they receive, but they're all too eager to throw out competitive quotes to keep their pipeline of potential work full in case they decide to honor their quotes. We use the Angie's List platform to avoid this type of unprofessional nonsense."

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
