Overview
A connected workflow instead of a pile of tools.
Instead of jumping between spreadsheets, maps, and email, The Landscape Estimator keeps the parts that matter most—services, measurements, and pricing—in one system built for how landscape work actually happens.
- Service templates
- Pre-built services for mowing, mulch, cleanups, enhancements, and more—each with labor, materials, and production rates.
- Flexible measuring
- Use map tools when you can’t get on site, or plug in on-site measurements and counts. Both roll into the same templates.
- Centralized pricing
- Store labor rates, materials, markups, and margins in one place so every estimator works from the same playbook.
- Clear estimate docs
- Generate clean, itemized estimates you can send to customers or drop into your proposal and CRM stack.
Service templates
Lock in how you price common landscaping work.
Start with services tuned for landscape maintenance and enhancements—mowing, mulch, barkdust, cleanups, shrub trimming, seasonal color, and more. Each template bundles labor, materials, and production rates into a reusable building block, so estimates feel the same regardless of who builds them.
- • Capture typical crew sizes, travel, setup, and cleanup in one place.
- • Dial in production rates based on your equipment and local conditions.
- • Duplicate and tweak templates as you add new service offerings.
- • Keep a library of services that mirrors how your team actually sells work.
Example service library
Weekly lawn maintenance
Crew of 2 • mowing, trimming, edging
Barkdust install – 3"
Material, delivery, cleanup included
Spring cleanup
Bed cleanup, pruning, haul-off
Measuring tools
Map tools when you need them. On-site measurements when you don’t.
Sometimes you walk the property. Sometimes you only have an address. The Landscape Estimator supports both, so you can still build accurate estimates even when site access is limited.
- • Draw areas, edges, and counts directly on the map.
- • Plug in wheel, tape, or laser measurements from site walks.
- • Capture photos and notes on conditions that affect production.
- • Feed all those quantities straight into your service templates.
Σ
Measurements stay linked to the services they drive.
Pricing & margins
Centralize labor, materials, and markups—then reuse them everywhere.
Keep your pricing rules out of scattered spreadsheets. The Landscape Estimator stores labor, materials, overhead, and margin settings in one place so every estimate uses the same logic.
Labor & crew rates
Define hourly rates for different crews or roles and reuse them across all services.
Materials catalog
Keep barkdust, rock, plants, and other materials in one place with costs, sizes, and suppliers.
Markups & targets
Apply consistent markups or margin targets so pricing doesn’t change from one estimator to another.
Scenario tweaks
Adjust margins or quantities on a per-estimate basis without breaking your underlying model.

- • Group services by section (maintenance, enhancements, add-ons, and more).
- • Show or hide internal details like production rates and crew hours.
- • Include optional notes and upsell options for each estimate.
- • Copy totals and line items into whatever system you already use.

Built for your team
Works whether you’re solo or running multiple estimators.
The Landscape Estimator helps you document how pricing should work—and then makes it easy for others to follow.
Growing crew
Onboard new estimators faster. Give them the same services, materials, and pricing rules your lead estimator uses.
Established company
Use TLE as the estimating engine underneath your existing CRM and invoicing stack—without forcing the team into a new all-in-one system.
Why not just keep using spreadsheets?
Keep spreadsheets for analysis—use TLE for building estimates.
Spreadsheets are excellent for reporting and modeling. The Landscape Estimator is better for day-to-day estimating: repeatable, less error-prone, and easier for new team members to follow.
Spreadsheets
- – Easy to break with a wrong formula.
- – Hard for new estimators to learn.
- – No built-in support for maps or measurements.
- – Multiple versions floating around in email.
The Landscape Estimator
- + Templates, materials, and pricing in one place.
- + Map tools and on-site measurements built in.
- + Consistent estimates across your team.
- + Clear documents ready for customers.
Questions
Frequently asked about The Landscape Estimator.
Does this replace my CRM or invoicing software?
No. TLE is focused on estimating. You can continue using whatever tools you like for proposals, CRM, and invoicing—simply copy the numbers and line items out of TLE into your existing workflow.
Is it only for maintenance work?
No. Many contractors use TLE for cleanups, enhancements, and small installation projects. Anywhere you need repeatable production rates and clear estimates, it can help.
How long does it take to get set up?
Most teams can start estimating with the built-in templates right away, then refine production rates and materials over the first few jobs. You don’t have to migrate your whole business on day one.
