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.

Common questions

Landscapers in Virginia Beach: quick answers

How are the landscapers in Virginia Beach 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 Virginia Beach?

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 Virginia?

Licensing in Virginia runs through the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (DPOR). Before hiring anyone in Virginia Beach, ask whether they hold a Class A, B, or C contractor license and verify the license number through DPOR's public license lookup. Also confirm current liability insurance, and get the license number in writing on the estimate.

Which landscapers serve Virginia Beach?

This page lists Dr. Dan's Landscaping & Architectural Design, American Dream Landscapes, Anderson's and Zippia, in ranked order. 2 of the 4 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 Virginia Beach?

Going by Virginia Beach's own weather records (typical last spring frost around March 7, first fall frost around December 16), the usual windows are from about March 7 into early summer or before September, usually the wettest month in Virginia Beach. Booking a few weeks ahead of those windows beats the rush.

What to look for when hiring a landscaper in Virginia Beach

  • Check which Virginia license applies. Virginia licenses some of this work through the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, which issues the VDACS pesticide business license and certified fertilizer applicator. Verify it at the official Virginia license lookup before signing. Mowing needs no state license, but a service that sprays weed control or fertilizes lawns commercially needs a VDACS pesticide business license and a certified fertilizer applicator.
  • 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 Oceanfront or Pungo will understand local housing stock better than a regional chain.
