FAQs

A Structural Landscaping License is a certification that allows individuals or businesses to legally perform structural landscaping work. This can include tasks like building decks, pergolas, retaining walls, paving, fencing, and other similar outdoor structures. The license ensures that the work complies with local building codes and safety standards.
To qualify for a Structural Landscaping License, you typically need to have a combination of relevant work experience and formal training. This might include completing a recognized course in landscaping, construction, or a related field, along with a certain number of years of practical experience. Additionally, you may be required to pass a licensing exam that tests your knowledge of building codes, safety regulations, and best practices.
Having a Structural Landscaping License is important because it ensures that you are legally authorized to perform structural landscaping work. This protects both the contractor and the customer by ensuring that the work is done safely and to a high standard. It also helps you build trust with clients, as they can be confident that you are qualified and knowledgeable in your field.
