Ditto - thank you Gracie - a ball park figure is better than no figure at all. Hopefully we are all intelligent enough to know there could be great variations depending on how you are having a job done, but it is good to have a figure to work with. When we were pricing landscaping for the rear of our home seemed like the quotes were all around the
$3500 (give or take) range for nothing elaborate. I then decided to have a landscaper do the difficult work - removing sod, establishing the beds and planting the palms and I
did the rest. Saved over $1000.

Point being - I would be comfortable telling someone to landscape the rear of an average sized designer would be around $3500.
