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.
Subsidies & incentives
There are no direct national subsidies for garden renovations, but many municipalities offer local incentive schemes for greening and sustainable water management.
Municipal Greening Subsidy
Many municipalities encourage greening gardens and replacing hard surfaces:
- Tile exchange scheme: Some municipalities offer compensation per m2 of hard surface replaced by greenery
- Amount: Varies by municipality, often €5 to €25 per m2 of removed paving
- Requirement: Minimum area often 10 m2 or more
- Check your municipality's website for current amounts and conditions
Rainwater Capture Subsidy
To combat waterlogging, municipalities encourage rainwater management:
- Subsidy for installing a rainwater barrel or cistern
- Compensation for permeable paving
- Contribution for green roofs or facade planting
