Frequently asked questions

What should a landscaping estimate include?
Scope broken down by area, quantities with units (sq ft of sod, cubic yards of mulch, plant counts and sizes), labor, haul-away, total with tax, validity window, and warranty terms. Unit-based line items make you look professional and make change orders painless.
How do I price a landscaping job?
Cost out materials with a supplier quote, estimate crew-hours, multiply by your loaded labor rate, add disposal and equipment, then apply your margin (most landscape contractors target 15–30% net on installs). The template's per-unit line items mirror that structure.
Should landscaping estimates be free?
For straightforward residential installs, yes — free estimates are the norm and a sales opportunity. For design-heavy projects, charge a design fee ($300–$2,500) and credit it toward the install if they hire you.
How long should a landscaping quote stay valid?
30 days is common; in spring rush some companies shorten it to 14 because plant and labor availability moves fast. Edit the “Valid until” date per job.
Is this landscaping estimate template really free?
Yes — unlimited edits and PDF downloads, no account, no watermark fee. Your data stays on your device.
