Pricing guide
Costs depend on whether the job is a routine visit or involves powered systems or bespoke finishes. A standard visit will typically include a callout plus labour and materials, while features with pumps, wiring or plumbing usually need extra diagnostic time and parts and may involve separate licensed trades. Bespoke or large assemblies often carry higher material and labour allowances and can raise the final price beyond a simple repair.
Callout and labour time
A callout plus the number of labour hours typically applies, so longer or repeat visits increase the overall cost.
Feature type and systems
Simple planting or stonework is usually less complex than ponds, fountains or powered lighting which need extra diagnostics and parts.
Licensed trades involvement
Work that requires certified electrical or plumbing input often leads to separate charges and coordination with a licenced tradesperson.
Bespoke materials and finishes
Custom designs, artisan fabrication or non-standard materials generally require higher material allowances and more labour time.
Excavation and on-site assembly
Extensive digging, structural work or large on-site assembly increases scope and can push the job beyond standard allowances.
