What Affects Landscaping Costs?
Location
Labor and material costs vary significantly by region. Coastal areas tend to be more expensive.
Project Size
Larger projects often have lower per-square-foot costs due to economies of scale.
Scope of Work
Simple mulching vs. full hardscaping with patios and retaining walls drastically changes costs.
Plant Selection
Mature trees cost more than seedlings. Native plants often cost less long-term.
Site Access
Difficult access (slopes, no gate) increases labor time and equipment needs.
Timing
Spring is peak season. Fall or winter projects may offer 10-20% savings.
