What affects the price

When you get a quote for landscaping, the final number depends on a few moving parts. The total square footage of your yard is the biggest factor, followed by the specific types of plants, hardscaping materials, or irrigation systems you choose. If your property requires significant grading, clearing away heavy debris, or accessibility challenges for our equipment, those tasks add labor hours. We also consider how much ongoing maintenance the design requires. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
