Transparent Landscape Pricing in Pittsford, NY from a Team That Values Communication and Craftsmanship
Beautiful, Lasting Outdoor Spaces Designed Around Your Home and Lifestyle
Landscape Investment Levels
Designing the right outdoor space starts with understanding your property, your goals, and how landscape pricing in Pittsford, NY aligns with the scope of work you envision. To help guide that process, we’ve outlined five common investment levels based on the types of projects we design and build most often.
These levels are not fixed packages. They’re general guidelines meant to show what’s possible and help identify a starting point. Every Benson Landscape & Design project is fully customized to your property, preferences, and long-term vision.
Thoughtful Phasing, Designed With You
Many outdoor projects—especially larger transformations—can be thoughtfully planned and completed in phases. This allows work to be broken into manageable sections while maintaining a clear, long-term design for the entire space.
Rather than doing everything at once, we can begin with one portion of the project, complete it fully, and then move into the next phase over time. Each phase is intentionally designed to function beautifully on its own while contributing to the final, fully realized outdoor environment.
This approach provides flexibility without compromising quality, craftsmanship, or the integrity of the design.
Level 1: Curb Appeal & Landscape Enhancements
Typical range: $500–$3,000
Best for homeowners looking to refresh, maintain, or enhance specific areas of their landscape.
Level 1 projects focus on small, targeted improvements that enhance the appearance and health of your existing landscape. These projects are ideal for seasonal refreshes, cleanup, or addressing specific areas that need attention—without changing the overall layout of your property.
This level works well when your landscape already functions as intended but would benefit from professional care and thoughtful enhancements.
Pricing ranges shown are general guidelines based on typical projects. Final investment may vary depending on scope, materials, and site conditions. All work is customized.
Projects in this range often include:
- Front or backyard planting replacements and new plant installations
- Cleanup and enhancement of existing planting beds
- Bed edging, mulch installation, and pruning
- Simple landscape lighting and accent features
- Hardscape maintenance and minor repairs
- Pressure washing and poly sand refreshes for patios and hardscapes
Every Level 1 project begins with a personal consultation. One of our landscape professionals will walk your property, discuss your goals, and provide a clear proposal so you know exactly what to expect.
Level 2: Landscape Refresh & Hardscape Enhancements
Typical range: $3,000–$8,000
Best for homeowners ready to upgrade key areas of their landscape with lasting improvements.
Level 2 projects focus on refreshing and refining existing spaces to improve both function and appearance.
This level is ideal for homeowners who want meaningful upgrades while working within the framework of their current landscape.
Projects in this range often include:
- Small front walkways or backyard patios (typically under 200 sq. ft.)
- Landscape renovations and bed or border reconfigurations
- Medium-scale planting installations
- Advanced landscape lighting systems for safety and ambiance
Each Level 2 project is carefully planned and installed by our experienced team, with consistent communication and clean, professional job sites throughout the process.
Level 3: Outdoor Living & Mid-Level Installations
Typical range: $8,000–$20,000
Best for homeowners ready to add functional outdoor features and defined living spaces.
Level 3 introduces individual outdoor living elements that enhance how you use your property. This level allows homeowners to select specific features—such as patios, fire features, or outdoor kitchens—while maintaining flexibility in scope and design.
Projects at this level often create gathering spaces and focal points that feel intentional and well integrated with the home.
Projects in this range often include:
- Walkways, entryways, and patios (typically under 500 sq. ft.)
- Fire features or seating walls
- Garden and foundation plantings
- Outdoor kitchens or grilling areas
Homeowners work directly with one of our landscape consultants to ensure each feature complements the home’s architecture and existing layout.
Level 4: Signature Outdoor Living & Backyard Transformations
Typical range: $20,000–$50,000
Best for homeowners looking to completely reimagine their backyard or start fresh with a new home build.
Level 4 represents the most common scope for full backyard transformations or clean-slate designs. These projects deliver a cohesive outdoor environment where layout, materials, and plantings work together intentionally.
While many clients complete their Level 4 project in one phase, this level also lends itself well to thoughtful phasing. Larger designs can be broken into clearly defined sections—such as patios, planting areas, or outdoor living features—allowing work to move forward over time while maintaining a clear, long-term vision.
Projects at this level typically include everything offered in Level 3, plus additional elements that create a complete and connected outdoor space.
Projects in this range often include:
- A primary patio or outdoor living area
- Fire feature and/or seating walls
- Walkways and entry connections
- Expanded garden and foundation plantings
- Outdoor kitchen or built-in grilling area
- Landscape lighting to extend evening use
These elements represent the most requested components of a full backyard redo or a new home build with a clean slate—but they are simply a starting point for your custom design.
Each phase is designed to feel complete on its own while contributing to the final, fully realized outdoor space.
Level 5: Estate-Level Landscape Design & Outdoor Living Projects
Starting at $50,000+
Best for homeowners seeking a fully customized, full-property landscape experience.
Level 5 projects involve comprehensive design and construction across the entire property. These landscapes are typically planned as a master design and executed either all at once or in carefully sequenced phases.
Phasing at this level allows homeowners to prioritize specific areas—such as the backyard, outdoor living spaces, or front-entry experience—while ensuring every future phase aligns seamlessly with the overall design.
Our role is to guide that process so the property feels intentional at every stage, not unfinished.
Typical elements include:
- Full-property landscape design and installation
- Expansive outdoor living and entertaining areas
- Pool landscapes and integrated entertainment zones
- Stonework, patios, retaining walls, and lighting systems
Not Sure Which Level Fits?
That’s completely normal. Most projects don’t start with a level—they start with a conversation about your goals, your property, and how landscape pricing aligns with your vision. During your consultation, we’ll walk your property, listen to your ideas, and help determine the investment range and project approach that best aligns with your goals and long-term plans.

Landscape Maintenance Services
Maintaining a healthy, polished landscape requires consistency, planning, and the right combination of services. Our maintenance offerings are designed to support your property throughout the season—not just with one-off visits, but with a thoughtful approach that protects your landscape investment over time.
To help guide expectations, we’ve outlined how our maintenance services are structured and priced. As with our design and installation work, all maintenance plans are fully customizable based on your property, priorities, and seasonal needs.
Seasonal Maintenance Structure
Many of our maintenance services are provided on a seasonal or annual contract basis. This allows us to deliver consistent results, plan appropriately for your property, and assign dedicated crews who become familiar with your landscape.
Certain services—such as lawn mowing—are considered supporting services and are not offered on a standalone basis. For example, lawn mowing is available only when paired with additional seasonal services such as spring or fall cleanup, turf care, plant care, snow plowing, or similar recurring work.
This structure ensures your property receives comprehensive care rather than isolated services that don’t support long-term landscape health.
Service Areas & Availability
Some maintenance services, including lawn mowing, are available only within designated service areas. This allows us to maintain consistent scheduling, reliable service, and the level of quality our clients expect.
During your consultation, we’ll confirm service availability for your location and recommend the best approach for your property.
Maintenance Investment Levels
Typical seasonal investment: $1,000–$15,000+
Maintenance pricing varies based on:
- Property size and layout
- Scope and frequency of services
- Seasonal requirements
Services can be selected à la carte or combined into a custom maintenance package designed to support your landscape throughout the season.
Common Maintenance Services Include:
- Lawn mowing (paired with qualifying services)
- Spring and fall cleanups
- Turf care programs
- Plant health care and pruning
- Bed maintenance and mulch refreshes
- Snow plowing and winter services
- Landcare
These services are often bundled together to create a comprehensive maintenance plan that aligns with how your property is used and cared for year-round.
Customization & Planning
Every maintenance plan begins with a property review and consultation. From there, we’ll recommend a service structure that balances your goals, budget, and seasonal needs—whether that’s a simple combination of services or a full-season maintenance program.
Our goal is to provide reliable, professional care while giving you flexibility in how services are scheduled and combined.
Maintenance Pricing Disclaimer
Service examples and pricing ranges are intended as general guidelines. All maintenance services are customized, and final seasonal pricing depends on scope, frequency, property conditions, and selected service combinations.
