Common Questions

How do I estimate landscaping costs?+

Start by measuring the project area and breaking it into zones (lawn, planting beds, hardscape). Price materials per unit (sod per sq ft, mulch per cubic yard, plants individually), add labor by phase, and include equipment and delivery. Basic landscaping runs $4-$12 per sq ft; hardscape projects can reach $15-$30+ per sq ft.

What markup should I charge for landscaping work?+

Landscaping contractors typically mark up 40-65%. Materials are marked up 15-25% over supplier cost, while labor includes a 40-50% burden for insurance, taxes, and profit. Higher-end design/build firms often charge more due to design expertise and warranty commitments.

What should a landscaping estimate include?+

Include a scope description, itemized materials with quantities and species names, labor by phase, equipment costs, delivery fees, plant warranty terms, timeline, and payment schedule. For design/build projects, include the design fee separately. Always note any excluded work (sprinkler systems, lighting, etc.).

Should I charge separately for landscape design?+

Yes. Listing design/consultation as its own line item values your expertise and sets expectations. Many landscapers charge $500-$2,000+ for a design depending on project size, then credit part of it toward the installation if the client moves forward.
