Top Landscaping related questions

Hiring a landscaping contractor can cost around $50 to $100 per hour on average, depending on their skill level and how specialized they are. Learn more about how much a landscaping service costs for different projects to set the right price when hiring a landscaper in your area.

To get professional landscaping on the front and back yards of a 6,500 sq ft lot, you might pay anywhere from $300 to $800+. This may include small yard and landscape maintenance tasks. Basic landscaping tasks like leveling (ready for sod) and garden edging are quicker to do and will cost less. But if you need something more involved, like irrigation or retaining walls, the cost will be on the higher side.

Landscapers take care of one or more of the following aspects of yard work: installing structural elements, garden planning and design, moving earth and rocks, creating pathways, irrigation, or building physical features like retaining walls and pergolas. They can also take small jobs, such as lawn care and landscape maintenance services.

Most landscapers are skilled in operating machinery and equipment needed to move earth and rocks or cut down large trees. Some landscapers are skilled in garden and landscape design, architecture, and planning, and may use special software to create their designs.

Gardening is more focused around growing plants—from planting to pruning, watering, and maintenance. Whereas, landscaping is more about the design, shape, and structure of the land.

In the United States, landscaping license requirements vary from state to state. For certain types of tasks, specialized licenses may be required to perform the work. Please make sure that you confirm that a Tasker has the relevant landscaping license, experience, and insurance before accepting an offer.

Top Artificial Grass Installation related questions

Laying artificial turf is a practical way to boost the appeal of your tired concrete or dull backyard. You won’t have to overspend for fertilizers, mowing and cutting services, or spend hours watering them. But since they are made of synthetic materials, they can get a little hot during the peak summer day, which might irritate the kids or pets. They also tend to hold foul odors, so make sure you don’t spill food or let your pet’s waste rot on it.

Not necessarily! You can always request for a Tasker who can bring their installation kit. Some of the necessary tools and equipment include a shovel and pick (if you need a sub-base), hammer, rake, cutting tools, and joining adhesives. For special materials and treatments, our Taskers can also drop by the nearest hardware store to pick up everything before going to you.

It depends on the size of your yard. Usually, our Taskers can get the job done within the day for smaller turfs, and about one to two days for bigger spaces. For fields bigger than 1000 sq ft, it’s best to ask your installers directly to get a more accurate estimate. It is also worth mentioning that laying artificial grass lawn on soil or old turf may take a little longer since you will need a sub-base.

Definitely! While a synthetic lawn is easier to maintain than real grass, there is still some minor upkeep required to ensure that it will last longer. Our artificial grass maintenance usually includes grass brushing, getting rid of fallen leaves or debris, and rinsing to remove dust and pollen. We can also help remove mild and stubborn stains from grease, food oils, or pet marks.

Of course! Most of our Taskers know their way around almost any make and model of artificial grass. But if you need someone who is particularly trained and equipped in installing synthetic lawns from specific brands such as AstroTurf, specify your request upon booking. Forget about spending hours finding them online. With Airtasker, you can easily find suitable Taskers in just a few taps.

Airtasker has a range of flexible landscapers that can help re-establish your old backyard or garden. We can level your real lawn, especially if it is already full of weeds and dry soil, or provide your patio with a little trench digging if you want to plant new plants or trees, or install irrigation. We also have qualified Taskers who can install lawn sprinklers if you prefer to keep your garden naturally green and fresh all the time.

What does landscaping include?

When you book your landscaper, it’s important to let them know in your task exactly what work you need to be done. That way, they’ll be able to make you a fair offer and bring along the right tools for the job. 

Not sure where to start? If you need a range of general landscaping services, grab a notepad and pen, then go for a wander outside. Make a note of anything that needs tidying up, trimming, or removing. Then make sure you include these tasks in your listing. 

Another way to think about your landscaping is to break it down by the type of specialized skill or service you need, such as irrigation system installations, landscape design for your front yard, or outdoor additions to improve your home's curb appeal. Here are some of the jobs you might give to your landscaper and what you can expect to happen during the process.

Planning

When you’re undertaking a BIG change, it’s important to lay the groundwork with some planning first. This is where a landscape designer comes in. A landscape garden designer will help come up with ideas and map everything out on paper before you get started. Or you might hire a landscape architect to plan a larger commercial landscaping project in your local community or public space.

Earth and rocks

Don’t break your back over your backyard landscaping - no matter how little or how much you need to do. You can hire earthmoving contractors to do your trench digging, leveling, and even your pool excavation or boring excavation. They’ll bring the all tools and equipment needed to dig and move the earth so you (literally) don’t have to get your hands dirty.

Gardens

Planning a nice new garden bed to grow your own veggies, flowers, shady trees, or just want to reduce the amount of ground you have to mow? Get some help with your garden landscaping and garden edging to get the project off your to-do list and done sooner. That way, you can get on with the fun bit - planting!

Water

Where there are plants, there’s water. Make sure your plants get water when they need it (without having to remember to hose) with a drip irrigation system or a sprinkler system installation. Or make your garden more beautiful with a garden pond or water features. Either way, getting your water systems sorted is so much quicker and easier with an extra pair of hands or a landscaper near you who knows what they’re doing.

Trees

Trees are wonderful things, but sometimes, a tree’s gotta go. If you’re not experienced, you should never do chainsawing, stump grinding, wood chipping and mulching, or land clearing yourself. That’s something you should leave up to an experienced landscaper with the right equipment and background to get the job done properly and safely. 

Building and installations

A big component of landscaping is installing things to make your space more functional and beautiful. Things like retaining walls, artificial grass installation, landscape lighting or even garden benches to sit on. It’s always best to get a landscaper to help when it involves heavy lifting or specialist equipment. They’ll help you get your installations done safely and help you start enjoying your space much sooner.
