The problem with manual quoting for landscapers

Sound familiar?

🌿

Material quantity complexity

Landscaping projects involve many different materials — aggregates, sleepers, decking boards, fencing panels, topsoil, plants. Getting quantities right across all of these takes significant time.

🪣

Groundwork scoping

Excavation, membrane, sub-base, and drainage are often underquoted or forgotten entirely. These groundwork costs can be a significant portion of a landscaping job.

🌸

Seasonal pricing variation

Plant costs vary by season and availability. Quoting a planting scheme without current pricing leads to margin erosion when purchasing.

📋

Scope creep on large projects

Garden transformation projects are prone to scope creep. A detailed, itemised quote makes it easier to price variations and protect margins when clients change their minds.

What the quoting software does for landscapers

Built specifically for landscaper quoting — not a generic tool.

Decking quantity calculator

Fencing scoping

Patio and paving quotes

Patio quotes cover sub-base, sharp sand, flags or block pavers, pointing, and edging — with area-based material quantities calculated automatically.

Groundwork inclusion

Excavation, membrane, and drainage costs are included automatically in landscaping quotes — one of the most commonly forgotten cost areas.

Planting scheme pricing

Add plant lists by species and pot size, with supply and plant-out labour included as separate line items.
