A real price range for mowing, cleanup, mulch, lawn treatment, mosquito control, sod, irrigation, hardscape, or a full design in about 30 seconds. Built for landscapers, free for homeowners.
Updated August 2026
This landscaping calculator asks a homeowner what they need, mowing, cleanup, mulch, a lawn treatment, mosquito and tick control, sod, irrigation, hardscape, or a full design, then prices it as a real low-to-high range. For the bigger jobs it asks one follow-up, a sod patch or a small or full yard, an irrigation repair or a full install, a walkway or patio or wall, and narrows the number. The homeowner sees a price on screen with no email required.
It prices lawn care and lawn pest control side by side, since so many landscaping companies run both. It is also a free calculator any landscaping company can put directly on their own site. Set it up below and every homeowner who runs it on your site becomes a lead in your inbox, full breakdown included.
It captures homeowner leads for you, full name, contact info, and the estimate they got, emailed to you the second someone submits it. Takes one block of code and stays free forever.
A homeowner prices a season of mosquito control before a backyard party, likes the number, and taps Book this visit. They pick a slot and it is on your route that night, while the call would still be sitting in your voicemail.

Meet AutoBook SchedulerA landscaping quote starts with the job, not the yard. Mowing a lawn, spraying for mosquitoes, and building a patio are three different amounts of work, so the calculator prices from the type of work first. For an everyday service that is enough to give a real range. For a bigger job the price swings on one more answer.
Sod is not one price, it is a patch, a small yard, or a full yard. Irrigation is a repair, a new zone, or a full install. Hardscape is a walkway, a patio, or a retaining wall. A design is a refresh, a mid-range plan, or a full build. That is why the calculator asks a single follow-up on those jobs, so the number lands near the real work instead of a wide guess. What it cannot see, the grading the yard needs, the base a patio has to sit on, the access a crew has to the backyard, is measured on the walk and is what turns the range into a firm quote.
Most landscaping companies already treat the lawn as well as cut it. This calculator prices that side too: a fertilization program with weed and grub control by the application, and mosquito and tick barrier treatments by the visit. These are the outdoor, turf-and-yard treatments a lawn-care crew handles, which is a different thing from structural pest control inside a home.
For a company that does both, that means one widget captures the homeowner who wants a patio and the homeowner who just wants the mosquitoes gone before a party. A single lawn treatment runs about $50 to $150 an application, or $300 to $900 for a season-long program, and mosquito or tick control runs about $75 to $200 a treatment, or $400 to $1,100 for a full season. Running structural pest control instead, ants to termites? The free pest control estimate calculator prices that side.
This table pairs each job the calculator prices with a national ballpark range and the one thing that moves it most. The ranges are wide on purpose, because yard size, access, and materials move them hard. Use it as a sanity check, then run the real job through the calculator above.
| Job | Ballpark range | What moves it |
|---|---|---|
| Lawn mowing / maintenance (per visit) | $45 to $90 | Lot size and how often you cut |
| Yard cleanup / leaf removal | $150 to $500 | Debris volume and haul-away |
| Mulch install | $300 to $1,000 | Cubic yards and bed prep |
| Lawn treatment (per application) | $50 to $150 | Lawn size and what the program covers |
| Mosquito & tick control (per treatment) | $75 to $200 | Yard size and one-time vs seasonal |
| Sod, patch a section | $300 to $1,000 | How much dead lawn and the sod type |
| Sod, small yard | $1,500 to $3,500 | Square footage and grading needed |
| Sod, full yard | $3,500 to $8,000 | Total area and old-lawn removal |
| Irrigation, repair | $150 to $450 | How many heads or a valve or line |
| Irrigation, add a zone | $600 to $2,000 | Run length and head count |
| Irrigation, full install | $2,400 to $6,000 | Yard size, zones, and controller |
| Hardscape, walkway | $1,500 to $5,000 | Length, material, and base prep |
| Hardscape, patio | $3,000 to $15,000 | Square footage, pavers, and grading |
| Hardscape, retaining wall | $4,000 to $15,000 | Height, length, and drainage |
| Design + install, refresh | $2,000 to $6,000 | A few beds, plants, and mulch |
| Design + install, mid | $6,000 to $20,000 | Beds, sod, and light hardscape |
| Design + install, full | $20,000 to $40,000 | Full plan with patio and irrigation |
Recurring services and treatments cluster in the low hundreds; the spread opens up on sod, irrigation, hardscape, and full design builds, where the yard size and the ground prep matter more than any single plant. That spread is exactly what the follow-up questions in the calculator are there to narrow.
Most landscaping calls price cleanly off the service. A few do not, because a single label hides two or three very different amounts of work. The calculator prices these by type so a homeowner is not handed a range wide enough to be useless.
Sod prices per square foot, so the real driver is area. Patching a dead spot is a few hundred dollars; a full yard with the old lawn stripped and the ground graded is thousands.
Fixing a broken head or valve is a service call. Adding a zone is a small project. A full system with a controller and trenching across the whole yard is the big one.
The pavers are the cheap part. The base prep, grading, and drainage are most of the cost, and a retaining wall adds engineering for the load it holds back.
Freshening a few beds is a different job from a full plan with sod, a patio, and irrigation. The tier the homeowner picks sets how much of the yard changes.
Here is the full chain from a homeowner's problem to a real number, the same steps the calculator above runs the instant they answer.
The homeowner picks "mosquito & tick control." A backyard party is two weeks out and the yard is unusable at dusk.
A single barrier treatment prices near $75 to $200 on national defaults, or on the landscaper's own numbers when they set them.
The calculator shows that a full season of treatments runs $400 to $1,100, so the homeowner sees the one-time and the recurring option side by side.
The homeowner marks it this week, since the party has a date, which tells the landscaper to fit it in fast.
If they choose to send it, the landscaper gets the job, the range, the urgency, and the homeowner's contact, emailed the second they submit.
The yard size and how much standing water or shade it holds are measured on the visit and adjust the final quote from this ballpark.
Two yards can get quotes hundreds or thousands of dollars apart for the same job, and none of it is padding. These are the things a site walk measures that a quick estimate cannot see.
Yard size is the biggest one, since sod, treatment, and mowing all price off area. After that comes the ground prep, the grading a sod job or patio needs and the drainage a wall or patio has to handle, which is most of a hardscape cost. Access matters too, since a crew that has to wheel pavers and soil through a narrow side gate works slower than one with a driveway to the backyard. Then come the material grade, whether the work is a one-off or part of a season-long contract, and the disposal of old sod, brush, or debris. That is why the calculator gives a range and the on-site walk gives the firm number.

What comes up before installing the calculator, pricing a service, or quoting a bigger job.
Yes. There is no subscription, no trial period, and no card required, for the landscaper installing it or the homeowner using it. Homeowners see a real price range with no email required to see a number, and landscaping companies who install it on their own site keep it free forever.
No. Enter your business name and email once to get your embed code, hosted link, and QR code, that is the whole setup. There is a secure settings dashboard you can open by magic link to customize prices later, but there is no account or password to manage.
Every submission is emailed to you instantly, with the homeowner's name, contact info, the job they picked, and the price range their answers produced. Lead emails start once you click the one-time confirmation link we send when you set up your embed. The calculator still works for homeowners before that, it just is not emailing you yet.
Yes. Set a low-to-high range for the everyday jobs like mowing, cleanup, mulch, lawn treatment, and mosquito control, and a range for each type of the bigger jobs, a sod patch or small or full yard, an irrigation repair or new install, a walkway or patio or retaining wall, a refresh or full design. Every estimate your calculator gives then runs on your numbers. Leave any of them blank and that job falls back to a solid national default.
The credit line is what keeps the calculator free. Keep it in place and the calculator, the leads, and the emails stay free forever.
Many do, and this calculator prices both. Lawn-care and landscaping companies commonly run lawn and turf pest control alongside the mowing and design work: fertilization with weed and grub control, and mosquito and tick barrier treatments for the yard. That is different from structural pest control (ants, roaches, termites inside a home), which is a separate license and a separate calculator. Here the pest options are the outdoor, turf-and-yard ones a landscaper already handles, so a company that does both captures both kinds of lead from one widget.
It depends entirely on the job. Recurring maintenance like mowing runs $45 to $90 a visit, and a one-time yard cleanup runs $150 to $500. Project work is where the range opens up: a sod job runs from a few hundred dollars for a patch to $8,000 for a full yard, a sprinkler system runs $2,400 to $6,000 installed, a paver patio runs $3,000 to $15,000, and a full landscape design and install commonly lands between $20,000 and $40,000. The calculator prices each of these separately so a homeowner gets a real number for their specific job, not a blended average.
Professional mowing commonly runs $45 to $90 per visit for a standard residential lawn, with a quarter-acre lot often landing near $50 to $55. Price moves with the lot size, how overgrown it is, and how often you cut, since a weekly schedule usually earns a lower per-visit rate than a one-off. Many companies set a minimum per visit because a short drive for a small lawn still costs a crew a slot. The calculator prices mowing per visit, which is how homeowners are usually quoted.
A single professional mosquito or tick barrier treatment for an average yard commonly runs $75 to $200, with most one-time sprays landing between $100 and $150. A full season of recurring treatments, typically every three to four weeks from spring through fall, commonly runs $400 to $1,100 depending on yard size and how many visits. Tick-focused barrier treatments sit at the higher end. The calculator prices this per treatment so a homeowner sees the per-visit number before committing to a season.
A single fertilization or weed-and-feed application commonly runs $50 to $150 depending on lawn size and what the product covers. Sold as a season-long program of five to eight applications, an annual lawn-care plan commonly runs $300 to $900. Adding grub, insect, or disease control raises the per-application price. The calculator prices a single application so a homeowner can compare, and a landscaper can quote the full program from there.
Sod runs roughly $1 to $3 per square foot installed, so the total is really about area. Patching a dead section commonly runs $300 to $1,000, a small yard $1,500 to $3,500, and a full yard $3,500 to $8,000 or more. What moves it is the square footage, whether the old lawn has to be stripped and the ground graded, and the sod variety. The calculator asks how much lawn so the range narrows from square-foot math to a real job number.
A full new sprinkler system commonly runs $2,400 to $6,000 for an average yard, or roughly $600 to $2,000 per zone. A repair, a broken head, a valve, or a cut line, commonly runs $150 to $450, and adding a single zone to an existing system runs $600 to $2,000. Yard size, the number of zones, the controller, and trenching drive the total. The calculator asks whether it is a repair, a new zone, or a full install so the number lands near the real job.
Hardscape prices off area and base prep more than the pavers themselves. A walkway commonly runs $1,500 to $5,000, a paver patio $3,000 to $15,000 depending on size and material, and a retaining wall $4,000 to $15,000 depending on height, length, and the drainage behind it. Grading, a proper compacted base, and drainage are what separate a patio that lasts from one that heaves, and they are most of the cost. The calculator prices the three hardscape types separately.
The ground under the job moves the price more than the plants on top. A sod job is cheap on flat, clear soil and pricier when the old lawn has to be stripped and the yard graded. A patio doubles in cost when the base has to be dug deeper for drainage. Access matters too, since a crew that has to wheel material through a narrow gate works slower than one with a driveway to the backyard. Add the yard size, the material grade, and whether the work is a one-off or part of a maintenance contract, and two similar yards can land far apart. That is why the calculator gives a range and treats the on-site walk as the exact figure.
Treat it as a solid ballpark that gets a homeowner oriented before anyone visits. It prices the job from the type of work and a few follow-up answers, on regional defaults or the landscaper's own numbers. An on-site walk measures the actual yard size, the grading and drainage, and the access a crew has, which is what turns the ballpark into a firm price. The calculator's job is to give a real number fast and start the conversation, not to replace the site visit.
No. The calculator shows a real price range on screen from the homeowner's answers before it asks for anything. Contact details are only requested if the homeowner wants that estimate sent to a landscaper or wants a call back. That is deliberate, a tool that shows a number first earns more finished submissions than one that gates the result behind a form.
