Price the labour and materials before they consume the margin.

Describe the work the customer is actually buying

Separate mowing, edging, cleanup, mulch installation, bed work, and other services so the scope is understandable. Add material and disposal costs where they apply, and account for slope, access, overgrowth, obstacles, travel, and setup time rather than hiding them in a rough allowance.

Service pricing remains editable. LawnQuote is not a local rate database and does not claim that a suggested total is the price your market will accept.

• Area, linear, hourly, and flat-price service methods
• Direct materials and disposal costs
• Shared travel, setup, labour, and overhead assumptions

Check the whole job, not just the material markup

Materials are only one part of the cost. The price check includes paid time and overhead, then compares the result with your minimum visit and target margin. You see true cost, gross margin, and expected hourly revenue together rather than trying to reconcile separate notes later.

If the result is too low or the assumptions are wrong, revise the scope or inputs before promising a figure. That is especially useful for mixed landscaping work where a small overlooked task can erase the margin.

Give the customer a quote they can review

The customer preview keeps internal cost and profit information out of sight while showing the quoted services, total, notes, validity, and terms. Review that version before creating the professional PDF.

The final handoff stays under your control. LawnQuote opens the standard iPhone share sheet only after you choose to share; you select the app, recipient, and message.
