  • Start: As soon as possible is flagged as a bigger or more valuable job.

6Pricing your quote#

Landscaping is often quoted after a visit; use the form to qualify and prepare.

  • For simple jobs (lawn care, cleanup), give a price from the area and photos.
  • For design and building, offer a design visit and give a range first.
  • Match the solution to the budget range the customer chose.

These are ways to think about price, not market prices. Use your own costs and local rates.
