Pricing guide
The cost of a landscape design is driven mainly by the level of documentation and required coordination. Quick concept consults are typically less involved than construction-ready packages that include contractor-ready drawings and material specifications, while site complexity, third-party consultants and after-hours attendance or travel can also affect the final price.
Level of documentation
Construction-ready drawings and detailed material specifications usually require significantly more designer time than a sketch or concept.
Number of site visits and revisions
More site visits and additional revision rounds typically increase the total hours a designer needs to complete the job.
Need for third-party consultants
Engineers, surveyors or other consultants are often required for structural or planning issues and their fees are billed separately.
Site size and complexity
Larger sites or those with slopes, drainage or existing structures generally demand more detailed design and coordination.
Timing, travel and callout fees
A callout fee and the designer's attendance time apply, and after-hours appointments or long travel times usually increase the total.
