The cost of a landscape job varies greatly depending on what you want and/or need done, the design you choose, the condition of your property, the features you add, and the quality, attention to detail, and care your landscape contractor brings to the table. Costs for a total backyard redesign that includes demolition and regrading may approach $40/sq ft, depending on the work involved. A pergola, patio, walkway, bespoke firepit, outdoor kitchen, driveway, outdoor lighting, and other features increase the cost.

These typically include a driveway paver with a hard and softscaping perimeter. The latter could comprise artificial grass or a scattering of drought-tolerant plants and ground coverings of various sizes and forms. Plants that are beneficial to bees are also popular.
