How we rank landscapers in Claymont

Each business is scored on signals we can verify from public data: a live, secure (HTTPS) website, mobile-friendliness, a published phone number and website, and fit with the landscapers category. We do not collect or display customer reviews, and we do not accept payment for placement. Businesses can claim their listing to correct contact details, but the rank is fixed by the data. Owners can claim a listing for a Verified badge and a direct link; sponsors appear only in labeled blocks outside the numbered list. Neither changes rank.

Local conditions

Hiring landscapers in Claymont: what the local data says

  • 15% of the homes in Claymont were built in 2010 or later. Newer lots often start with graded fill and little established planting, so soil prep is usually part of the job.
  • 56% of occupied homes in Claymont are owner-occupied, and 41% of homes are single-family detached houses.
  • The typical last spring frost in Claymont is around April 1 and the first fall frost around November 17, roughly 229 frost-free days. That window is the planting season for most lawns and beds, and spring slots with good crews fill early.
  • Claymont gets about 52 inches of precipitation a year and about 18 inches of snow, and August is typically the wettest month. Drainage and grading problems show up in the wettest month, which is the best time to see where water sits.

Common questions

Landscapers in Claymont: quick answers

How are the landscapers in Claymont ranked?

Each listing is scored on public signals we can check ourselves: whether the website is live and secure (HTTPS), whether it works on a phone, whether a phone number and website are published, and how closely the business matches the landscapers category. We do not collect customer reviews, so no star ratings or review counts appear here, and no business pays for placement.

How do I pick the best landscaper in Claymont?

Use this list to shortlist two or three landscapers, then read their Google reviews yourself, confirm license and insurance, and get written estimates before committing. The score here is a filter, not a verdict.

How do I verify a landscaper's license in Delaware?

Licensing in Delaware runs through the Delaware Department of Labor, which registers contractors, and the Division of Professional Regulation, which licenses plumbers, electricians and HVAC technicians. Before hiring anyone in Claymont, check a general contractor in the Department of Labor contractor registry (contractorregistry.delaware.gov), and a plumber, electrician or HVAC technician in the DELPROS license portal (delpros.delaware.gov). Contractors also carry a Delaware business license. Also confirm current liability insurance, and get the license number in writing on the estimate.

Which landscapers serve Claymont?

This page lists Daniel's Lawn and Tree, LLC, Quality Cut Lawn Service LLC, Dare Commercial Services, LLC, E&J Landscaping LLC, Guth Outdoor Solutions, Kelly's Landscaping, Mike's Lawn & Landscaping, ScapeWorx, B.A.C. Landscaping, Inc., Cider Mill Landscapes and Turf Landscape Contractors, in ranked order. 10 of the 11 publish a phone number, so you can call those directly; the rest are easiest to reach through their websites.

When is the best time to book landscapers in Claymont?

Going by Claymont's own weather records (typical last spring frost around April 1, first fall frost around November 17), the usual windows are from about April 1 into early summer or before August, usually the wettest month in Claymont. Booking a few weeks ahead of those windows beats the rush.

What to look for when hiring a landscaper in Claymont

  • Check which Delaware license applies. Delaware licenses some of this work through the Delaware Department of Agriculture, which issues the pesticide business license (for pesticide treatments). Anyone commercially applying fertilizer to more than a quarter acre of turf must be certified by the Delaware Nutrient Management Commission, and anyone applying pesticides must hold a pesticide business license.
  • Written estimates. Any landscaper who won't put the scope in writing is a red flag.
  • Review quality, not just volume. Read the 3-star reviews, they're usually the most honest.
  • Local references. A landscaper who's done work in Claymont will understand local housing stock better than a regional chain.
