Landscaping cost vs. value
Landscaping can boost curb appeal and home value. Here's where to spend and where it pays off.
What adds the most value
Clean, well-maintained beds, healthy lawn, simple hardscaping and good lighting offer strong curb appeal for the cost.
What costs the most
Full design, retaining walls, patios and large planting schemes are the biggest cost drivers. Start with the essentials.
Budgeting
A basic refresh is affordable; major hardscaping and planting can run $5,000–$20,000+.
