How We Determine Commercial Landscape Pricing in Fort Worth, TX

Time is the Key Component in Most Landscape Maintenance Services

Wondering how we come up with our commercial landscape maintenance prices? It's not a random process. As a professional landscaping company, we provide each client with a detailed schedule of the services we provide throughout the year. A wide variety of maintenance tasks are included in this schedule of services, including:

  • Mowing
  • Edging
  • String trimming
  • Hand weeding of flower beds and areas with mulch
  • Blowing hardscapes, patios, and sidewalks
  • Fertilizer and weed treatment applications
  • Removing and installing seasonal color
  • Shrub trimming
  • Irrigation system checks

Your Fort Worth, Texas commercial site may have other services, too, depending on your specific needs. When you consider the amount of time spent on each of these individual services, you get a better understanding of our landscape pricing system.

Mowing

Every mowing crew uses a standard 21" mower and a larger, time-saving tractor mower. The more areas that require the smaller mower, the more time it takes. For example, using a 52" tractor mower on a one-acre area of turf will take almost one hour to mow. The same amount of turf would take almost eight hours using the 21" mower. 

In our region of North Texas, we usually need to mow 36 times a year.

Edging and Trimming

Edging and trimming services address the grass that grows around the edges of hardscapes, parking lots, and sidewalks as well as parts of the turf that the mowers can't reach, such as under fences. The amount of time spent on this task depends on your individual property.

Blowing

Our Clean Site Promise requires our crews to leave your site looking clean and tidy. That means we blow the clippings off your sidewalks, patios, pool area, and other hardscapes. We estimate that it takes one person an hour to blow an area equal to an acre.

Fertilizer Applications

In Texas, applying fertilizers and herbicides on a commercial property requires registration through the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA). We must be registered with TDA and provide proof of liability financial responsibility in the amount of $100,000 property damage and $100,000 bodily injury per occurrence or a general aggregate at a minimum of $200,000 for each occurrence. The registration is renewed each year with continuing education requirements. 

We estimate that it takes one person just under four hours to complete a professional application on an acre of lawn area. This does not include the cost of the fertilizers.

We usually apply fertilizer and weed treatments four times per year.

Seasonal Color: Installation and Removal

Seasonal color around your Fort Worth property adds vibrancy and an enjoyable atmosphere. We estimate that it takes four hours for one person to remove and install a new flat of flowers, usually 18 plants per flat. For properties that install 100 flats of annual color, you can expect it to take 25 man hours. This does not include the cost of the flowers or the fertilizer that needs to be added.

This service is provided two to three times per year.

Trimming Shrubs

This is one of the most time-consuming maintenance tasks we undertake. It's not uncommon for a large commercial property, such as a hotel or shopping center, to have hundreds of shrubs. Each shrub needs to be individually trimmed so they are all somewhat equal in height and width. We estimate it takes an hour for one skilled person to trim six large shrubs or 11 medium-sized shrubs. Shrub trimming also involves raking and bagging the trimmings, plus the cost of disposal.

We usually trim shrubs four times per year.

Irrigation System Check

Irrigation systems are the number one users of water in Texas. We take irrigation system checks and water conservation very seriously. Your irrigation system is designed to ensure your plants and turf survive the hot summer days and remain healthy. It is more expensive to maintain lush, green turf, and in some municipalities, using that much water may not be possible.

A proper irrigation system check requires a licensed irrigator to check each zone, nozzle, rotor, and more. The licensed irrigator must have completed a thorough and rigorous training program and pass a test administered by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The license must be renewed every three years. 

We normally do a complete check of irrigation systems eight times per year.

An Example of a Commercial Landscape Maintenance Proposal in Fort Worth, Texas

To get a better idea of how much time is spent on landscape maintenance for one property, consider this example:

  • Mowing/Edging/Blowing takes 12 man hours per visit X 36 visits = 432 man hours
  • Fertilizer/Herbicide application requires 1 man hour X 4 applications = 4 man hours
  • Seasonal Color takes 12.5 man hours X 2 color changes = 25 man hours
  • Shrub trimming takes 13.5 man hours X 4 trims = 54 man hours
  • Irrigation check requires 1.5 man hours X 8 checks = 12 man hours

In this example, the professional landscaping services requires 527 man hours for one year of maintenance. Add to that the cost for herbicides, fertilizers, flowers, overhead, and a reasonable profit.

Overhead costs cover a wide variety of things, including our trucks, trailers, and other equipment, licenses, training, our lease/mortgage payments, and utilities. We also have to pay for the insurances we need to cover the risks associated with operating landscaping equipment. As you can see, our company has a lot going on behind the scenes to make landscaping less of a hassle for you.

York Landscaping and Irrigation takes pride in ensuring our clients' properties look as beautiful as possible. Labor is our number one expense. Our Professionalism Guarantee puts us on a higher level than some of the landscapers you may have dealt with in the past. We believe you get what you pay for in commercial landscaping.
