Before Hiring a Landscaping Pro in Garrison
Use this checklist to vet contractors before signing a contract.
Verify they carry pesticide applicator certification if doing lawn treatments
NY and CT both require certification for commercial pesticide and herbicide application. Unlicensed application is illegal and can harm your property.
Ask for a planting plan that specifies species, sizes, and spacing
A written plan with botanical names ensures you get what you paid for. Avoid contractors who cannot name the plants they are installing.
Confirm they will call 811 (Call Before You Dig) before any excavation
Hitting a gas line or fiber optic cable is dangerous and expensive. Utility marking is free and legally required.
Ask about a warranty or guarantee on plant material
Reputable landscapers offer a 1-year replacement warranty on trees and shrubs. If plants die from improper installation, they should replace them.
Verify Home Improvement Contractor license with your municipality
New York counties require Home Improvement Contractor registration. Check with your local clerk's office or building department.
Confirm general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage
Ask for a certificate of insurance (COI) naming you as additionally insured. Workers' comp protects you if a worker is injured on your property.
Get 2-3 written estimates that itemize labor, materials, and timeline
Lump-sum quotes hide details. Itemized estimates let you compare apples to apples and catch hidden costs.
Check permit requirements with Town of Philipstown Building Department ((845) 265-5202)
Garrison is a hamlet within the Town of Philipstown. Contact Philipstown town hall for permit requirements.
Ask for 3 recent local references and actually call them
Ask references specifically: Did the job finish on time and on budget? Were there surprises? Would you hire them again?

Best Time to Hire a Landscaping Pro in New York
Seasonal timing guide for the Northeast (CT/NY metro area).
Prime planting season once the ground thaws (usually late March). Book hardscaping early — the best crews fill their spring schedule by February. Spring cleanup removes winter debris.
Active maintenance season. New plantings need irrigation in summer heat. Hardscape projects (patios, walkways) are best started before July heat peaks. Lawn seeding should wait until fall.
Best time for lawn overseeding and aeration (Sep-Oct). Trees and shrubs planted in fall establish stronger root systems. Fall cleanup and leaf removal prevent lawn damage.
Dormant pruning for trees and shrubs (Jan-Feb). Use this time to plan spring projects and get landscape designs finalized. Many companies offer winter pricing for spring bookings.
