Pricing guide

Cost is driven mainly by the edging material chosen and whether the job is a new install or a replacement. Masonry or premium stone work typically requires more time, precision and consumables, while standard steel strip, timber or basic pavers is usually less labour‑intensive. Access, ground conditions, demolition and after‑hours attendance can also affect the final quote.

  • Edging material and finish

    Natural stone, brick or concrete blockwork usually needs cutting and mortar, increasing labour and time compared with steel strip, timber or basic pavers.

  • New install vs replacement

    Removing existing mortared or deep‑set edging typically adds demolition time and variability compared with a straight new install.

  • Foundation and precision setting

    Masonry installations that require concrete bases, precise setting or grouting generally take longer and often need skilled masonry labour.

  • Site access and ground conditions

    Tight access, rocky or compacted soil can slow progress and may necessitate mechanical assistance or extra manual effort.

  • Timing, crew size and machinery

    Large runs, two‑person masonry skills, use of machinery or after‑hours attendance usually increase the overall scope and time on site.

Frequently asked questions

How long will edging installation take?
Typical duration depends on the linear length, material choice and whether old edging must be removed. Soft‑ground installs with basic materials usually take less time, while masonry work or replacement of existing, mortared edging often requires more crew hours and may take longer.
Do landscapers need to be registered?
This trade generally requires registration rather than a trade licence, so landscapers are usually registered and carry relevant insurance. It's sensible to ask for proof of registration and insurance when comparing quotes.
Will old edging need to be removed first?
If the job is a replacement, removal and breaking out of existing edging is commonly required and adds labour; disposal arrangements can vary between providers. Existing conditions like mortared brick or deep‑set sleepers often increase variability and may necessitate mechanical assistance.
Do I need to prepare the area beforehand?
In most cases you should clear the area of garden items and provide safe access so crews can work efficiently. If heavy demolition or machinery is likely, your installer will typically advise any specific access or preparation needs during the quote or inspection.
How accurate is the instant estimate?
Our estimates are built from research across thousands of local jobs and real pricing data. Use them as a guide when speaking to landscapers — your actual quote will depend on your specific job.
