What to include on a Landscaper invoice
Your invoice needs to show exactly what you did and where you did it. Break down labor hours, materials like mulch or plants with quantities, and equipment fees if you're charging separately for aerators or stump grinders. Include the property address because commercial clients often manage multiple locations and their accounting department will reject invoices they can't match to a site. If you hauled away debris or applied treatments, specify the volume or square footage so there's no confusion about scope.
Most landscapers take a deposit before starting, usually 25-50% for bigger jobs. Bill the remainder on completion for small projects. For large installations or ongoing maintenance contracts, split it into phases like site prep, planting, and hardscape. Net 15 or Net 30 terms work for commercial accounts, but residential clients should pay on completion or within a week maximum.
Take photos before you invoice for installation work. When a client questions a charge three weeks later, you can show them exactly what you hauled away or how bad the yard looked before you fixed it. This cuts payment delays in half because nobody argues with photographic evidence of the work you actually did.
Frequently asked questions
How do landscapers set their prices?
Landscapers charge $50–$100/hour for labor, per visit ($50–$200 for maintenance), or project-based ($2,000–$20,000+ for design/install). Materials are typically billed at cost plus 20–40%.
What should a landscaping invoice include?
Include services performed, labor hours, equipment used, materials itemized (plants, stone, mulch with quantities), any subcontractor costs, and maintenance schedule if recurring.
Should landscapers charge for design separately?
Yes. Landscape designs take significant time. Charge $200–$2,000 for the design, and credit part of the fee toward the installation if the client proceeds.
