Cost questions
Why do landscaping prices vary so much?
Access, soil, slope, material choice and the size of the property drive most of the difference. A written quote after a site visit is the only accurate number.
Is landscaping more expensive at the shore?
Coastal properties often need more soil amendment, salt-tolerant plants, drip irrigation and brass fixtures, which can add 10–20% over an inland job of the same size.
Do you offer maintenance contracts with fixed pricing?
Yes. Season-long contracts are priced as a fixed monthly amount so there are no surprises.
