How Much Does Landscaping Cost in Ireland?

The cost of landscaping a garden in Ireland can vary considerably from one project to another.

Every garden is different and the overall investment will depend on the existing site. For this reason, landscaping is difficult to price accurately without first understanding the garden and what the client would like to achieve.

What Affects the Cost of Landscaping?

A number of factors can influence the overall cost of a landscaping project.

These can include the existing condition of the garden, access, levels, drainage, the amount of construction required and the overall scope of the project.

Even gardens of a similar size can vary significantly in cost depending on what is involved.

This is why we do not price landscaping simply according to garden size or a standard square metre rate.

Complete Garden Landscaping

A complete garden landscaping project may involve redesigning the layout of the garden and considering all of the elements together.

Depending on the project, this can include patios, paths, steps, lawns, trees, hedging, planting, lighting, irrigation and other garden features.

At LandArt these projects are approached as a complete Design, Build & Planting service, allowing the finished garden to be considered as one cohesive scheme.

Landscaping an Existing Garden

Not every garden requires a complete rebuild.

In some cases, elements of the existing garden can be retained and incorporated into a new design.

The right approach will depend on the condition of the garden, what is already in place and what needs to change to create the finished result.

You can read more about this on our Garden Renovation and Planting Services pages.

Why Landscaping Costs Can Vary So Much

There is no standard formula for landscaping costs.

A relatively straightforward garden may require very different work from another garden of a similar size.

Access, site conditions, construction, preparation, planting and the level of detail involved can all affect the amount of work required.

The best way to understand the likely investment is to look at the garden as a whole rather than focusing on one individual element.

Landscaping Cost Per Square Metre

We don’t price landscaping by the square metre, as gardens of a similar size can require very different levels of work.

Instead, LandArt projects are priced according to the overall scope of the project.
