Calculate your estimated costs
This is an estimate based on average 2026 prices. Actual costs may vary. Always request multiple quotes for an exact price.
Cost factors
The total cost usually consists of:
- Paving and groundwork: 30-45% of the total
- Planting and soil: 20-30% of the total
- Elements (fencing, pergola, borders): 20-35% of the total
- Labor costs: 25-40% of the total
These percentages can vary depending on the specific elements, paving material, and complexity of the groundwork.
Why do prices vary?
- Area and groundwork: A large garden requires more material and labor hours. Significant slopes or clay soil makes the groundwork more complex and expensive.
- Paving material: Concrete paving is inexpensive, while fired clay bricks, natural stone, or composite are considerably more expensive but offer a higher finish level.
- Planting and soil type: The choice of perennials, hedges, or trees has a major impact on material costs. Drainage or a new soil layer may add additional costs.
- Additional elements: A fence, pergola, pond, outdoor lighting, or outdoor kitchen adds substantially to the total budget.

Housing characteristics in Memphis
Memphis has a broad mix of postwar ranch homes, traditional brick houses, and older urban neighborhoods with renovation potential. Long, hot, humid summers and strong storms mean homeowners frequently invest in roofs, gutters, drainage, insulation, and air-conditioning replacements. Project pricing is generally more favorable than in faster-growing Sun Belt or coastal markets, although older homes can still hide electrical and plumbing updates.
