How Much MONEY Do Landscapers REALLY MAKE ?!? 4 k

What happens here

Installing the pavers on the prepared sub-base is shown, ensuring they conform to the established slope. This meticulous process involves laying each paver by hand, often in specific patterns, and using a rubber mallet for minor adjustments. The pavers are laid on a bedding layer (typically screened sand) which allows for minor adjustments to maintain the precise pitch of the patio for drainage. At the edges, plastic paver restraints are installed to hold the pavers in place. These restraints have perforations to allow water to drain through.

[Applause] [Music] now to make our life a little bit faster and the bids to go a little bit easier when we do a paper patio installation we have a basic package that it always includes and that includes willow creek pavers six inches of recycled class five and one inch of pull of pulverize of screened sand and the reason we do this formula this way is because then we're not calculating material costs for the pavers material costs for recycled class five and the cost for sand on an individual project by project basis once we put these three numbers together we know that one all we have to do is go out to a job site and measure it to come up with the overall bid for the patio portion of the package landscaping package now if there's circumstances such as difficult access or we need to deepen the base or we need to do demolition or removals those get added on to our paper patio pricing completely separate but our standard patio pricing package usually averages anywhere from 23 to 33 dollars per square foot depending on some of those conditions now our pricing includes a plastic edge restraint to hold the patio in place but also all of the labors and materials
