What moves the price
- Project size — redoing a whole garden takes far longer than adding a new lawn or a single bed.
- Materials used — stone, paving and timber for hardscaping vary widely, so the materials chosen move the price a lot.
- Planting choices — mature trees and shrubs cost more than young plants and take more care when planting.
- Condition of the existing landscape — an overgrown or uneven garden needs clearing and levelling before new work begins.
- Features like hardscaping or irrigation — patios, walls and watering systems add materials and days to the landscaping project.
Domestic services and household services prices in Ireland are up 11% over five years (CSO Consumer Price Index, Domestic services and household services, to 2025 December). Five years ago a typical landscaping would have cost about €7200 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: CSO CPM18, CPM12 →

How to pay less
- Choosing plants that suit your soil and climate costs less than replacing ones that fail.
- Young plants and shrubs cost less than mature specimens, and fill out within a few seasons.
- Keeping existing paving, trees and beds that work, rather than replacing everything, lowers the cost of the landscaping.
Before you book
- Access to the outdoor space during working hours.
- A budget range to help guide design choices.
- Mention any drainage problems, slopes or soft ground in the garden, as they shape the design and cost.
- Agree which parts of the work are hard landscaping and which are planting, and what the price includes for each.
- You can ask the landscaper whether any part of the design, such as raised decking, boundary walls or drainage, may need permission or follow local rules.
Landscaping cost: questions people ask
The cost of landscaping can vary based on project size, complexity, and materials used. For example, intricate designs with premium plants and hardscaping will typically be more expensive than basic lawn care.
The duration of a landscaping project can range from a few hours for simple tasks to several days or weeks for larger projects. Factors such as weather and site preparation can also influence the timeline.
While many landscaping tasks can be performed by general professionals, specific jobs like electrical installations for lighting or structural work may require qualified specialists. Always check local regulations for such tasks.
Same-day landscaping services may be available, but they depend on the company's schedule and the complexity of the job. It's best to contact local providers to see if they can accommodate urgent requests.
Yes, booking multiple services together can often lead to cost savings and a more cohesive outcome. Many landscapers offer package deals for combined services like design, installation, and maintenance.
Tasks such as major structural work, extensive tree removal, or installations requiring permits are generally considered out of scope for standard landscaping services. Always discuss your specific needs with the provider.
