Free landscaping proposal generator
Landscaping jobs mix area-based work (sod, mulch, pavers) with counts (plants, trees) and labor. A good proposal shows each part so the customer knows what the number covers.
Updated October 2026. By AI Automation Education.
Our free generic generator handles the area-based lines. Enter width and height for the area and your rate per square foot. For plants, put the count in the width box and 1 in the height box.
How landscaping work is usually priced
Price area work (sod, mulch, pavers) per square foot, plants per piece, and labor-heavy work such as grading by the hour or as a lump sum. Keep material and labor visible so a change in scope is easy to reprice.

- Areas in square feet, with a simple sketch or measurements
- Materials and species, with sizes for plants
- Grading, soil prep and irrigation changes
- Haul-away of old material
- Watering and warranty terms for new plants
