  • Liability insurance that provides protection to the consumer’s property if damage occurs during the construction phase of the project.
  • A Landscape Construction Professional who has passed exams demonstrating technical knowledge to perform and supervise the work.
  • A dispute resolution process administered by the board that mediates between the consumer and the landscape contracting business saving both parties legal costs.
