Arizona Landscapers

Hiring a Landscaper in Arizona

Buildermuse currently lists 10 landscapers in Arizona, averaging 4.9 stars across 1,369 verified Google reviews. That is an unusually strong field — when nearly every firm clears 4.8 stars, response time and availability become the real differentiators, so call two or three rather than only the top result. Most of the crews above operate out of Phoenix, Gilbert, and Glendale.

Arizona has one of the most comprehensive contractor licensing systems. Over 100 specialty classifications. The Registrar of Contractors also operates a residential recovery fund. Confirm credentials with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors at (602) 542-1525 before work begins. Licenses renew on a two-year cycle (birth month). Expect a $478 state application fee.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Arizona market sets the floor: construction workers here average $36.85 an hour — about $76,648 a year — across 227,091 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
