Landscaping projects mix design time, materials (plants, stone, mulch, hardscape), equipment, and often a subcontractor for specialty work like irrigation or lighting. This calculator adds all of it up, applies your overhead, and calculates a price at the margin or markup you choose — for a small planting bed or a full yard renovation.
Total your labor, materials (with any markup you apply), equipment, and subcontractor costs for the project, add a share of overhead, then apply your desired profit margin or markup. This calculator handles each step and shows the full breakdown.
Many landscapers mark up plants, stone, and hardscape materials to cover the time spent sourcing, hauling, and handling them. How much varies with supplier relationships and job type, so this calculator lets you apply whatever material markup percentage fits your business.
