Backyard Renovation After a Pool Build

The ranges
What the common jobs run
Stated by the owner and approved for publication. Every quote is itemized so you can see which lines make up your number.
| Project | Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| One-time cleanup | Quoted after we walk the property | Overgrown beds, edging, pruning and haul-off before a plan or a sale. We do not do $50 single mows. |
| Sprinkler repair visit | $300 to $600 | The typical first ticket: a broken head, a leaking valve, a zone that will not fire. Licensed work under IC #0866. |
| Artificial turf | $16 to $20 per square foot installed | Varies by pile height and base work. Pool surrounds and dog runs are the usual sizes. |
| Landscape design | Included on larger renovations | Gerardo draws the design himself in Morpholio Trace for projects in roughly the $5,000 to $7,000 and up range. |
| Full landscape renovation | $25,000 to $80,000 | Demo, design, drainage and irrigation underneath, then sod, beds, rock, edging and lighting on top. One crew, one plan. |
| Year-round maintenance plan | Quoted after we see the yard | Weekly or biweekly visits: mowing, edging, string trimming, blowing, hard-surface weed control and small debris pickup. |
What a renovation buys
The order of operations is the budget
Grade and drainage first, then irrigation, then sod, beds, rock, edging and lighting. Doing it in that order once is cheaper than doing the landscape twice.

Clipped hedges, fresh red mulch and shaped bed lines around a two-story white estate home, with a formal courtyard parterre at the rear.
Sod installation
Front Yard Sod Replacement

Questions
Landscaping cost questions
What is a realistic budget for a full renovation in Baton Rouge?
Our signature renovations run $25,000 to $80,000. That includes demo, a design Gerardo draws himself, drainage and irrigation underneath, and sod, beds, rock, edging and lighting on top. Smaller bed refreshes and cleanups are quoted after we walk the property.
Do you charge for a quote?
There is a $50 on-site assessment fee that is credited toward the installation. You receive an itemized quote by email and can accept it online. A 50 percent deposit secures the schedule.
Why are some landscaping quotes so much higher for the same plants?
Big companies lean on heavily marked-up plants. We recommend what the yard needs and price the plants as line items so you can see what each one costs.
Do you do one-time mowing?
No. Lawn maintenance runs on year-round weekly or biweekly plans. One-time cleanups are available and are quoted after we walk the property.
Is landscaping warrantied?
The drainage, irrigation and artificial turf inside a renovation are warrantied. Living plants depend on weather and watering after we leave, so we do not pretend to guarantee them. Every job carries our 100 percent satisfaction guarantee.
