What's the charge rate for each snort and swallow by the cameraman? If it's a per-item charge he's gonna be rakin it in.

[@keith-kalfas]

I made a mistake in the video. Sod is 2ft.x4.5ft. = 1yd. Per piece.

[@michaelmactavish1728]

yike $120.00 at the dump thats like at the garbage dump same price here wich im lucky my buddy owns a construction company and he has a pits wich hes pretty greatful let me use his pit to dump all the yard clean up dabre in for free

[@Contendforthefaith1]

Keith Kalfas I noticed you wear your earphones under your ear muffs (ear protection). I bought these 3M Bluetooth earmuffs at Walmart for $50 and they work amazing. You should check them out. It’s almost like killing two birds with one stone 👍🏼

[@davidburden2360]

rather than give yard price give a job price you take the risk for the entire job and they pay?

[@nickferdinande1646]

I was gonna say. 10 foot long?! Haha

[@kevinreyes5515]

Keith Kalfas im 18 years old and ive been working in landscaping and patio work with small companies. But i want to start my own company. I practically know everything and i do good work. How do you recommend me on giving prices to clients in residentials hourly rate or by item like each boxwood or tree trimmed

Done sir

[@pjcollins1885]

I Find out tomorrow

[@austynbutler5530]

Needed this video today I constantly feel like I’m over my head (first year in business) but when you literally give us the content we need and apply it to our own situations makes my life and decisions easier. Thank you for the video

[@yardmasterswealtheducation8424]

Is my yardwork "worth" what I quote? Yes. In every case. My yardwork is worth exactly what I quoted, because I am the one who will be providing it, and that is what it is worth to me. And, that is the only factor that is relevant. If you don't like my price, that's ok. Hire someone who charges less in cash, but more in headaches, hassles, and horror stories. And I begin to walk away...

[@deew1482]

Abelia is to the right the box woods. There's also kaleidoscope Abelia. Atl, Fulton County.

[@ryanfesta5103]

All this shit is easy. Get out there and trim your own bushes and lay mulch down. Save $4k+ for easy shit. Landscaping is highway robbery

[@anthonyn9935]

Keith what’s a good round about to charge to cut down privet hedges from 15 feet down to 3 feet and about 100 feet worth of them .. I’m having a hard time giving a price on this. Thanks

[@weighit]

When you break down each operation and write it down it is amazing how the estimate can get high, but it also allows you the option to show the customer what they will get. I always itemized what I was going to do, and that was how I made money. Lumping the job all together for one price was a sure way to underbid the project. Great Video

[@willieslawncareservice.8436]

What's up Keith. I am proud of you. Keep preaching and teaching, How to teach people to Bid. That's how we lift up this industry. 😎💲💰⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👊🇺🇸

[@keith-kalfas]

Ma dude

[@TheUniqueEater]

Keith.... theres something I have to say. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jimsterfromdallas3324]

What if the customer buys it and delivers them self what's a good price for instsall mulch.

[@Axel103Axel]

Keith could you show what you put on your contracts i have no idea how to make one i just use a hand shake and i have a $5000 project coming and i want to be ready

[@Michaelzeleznik4765]

For the mulch- You charge $100 per yard installed. Does this price include all of the weeding, edging, and in some cases weed barrier fabric? I charge $15 + mulch cost per yard installed, but I charge for the bed preparation separately about $80/hour. Yes I know that is quite low, but it's hard getting work as a 15 year old.

[@yardmasterswealtheducation8424]

I never itemize. I do not nickle and dime others, and I don't let them nickle and dime me. It always comes down to price. If I itemize, the customer will believe that taking that off will lower the price. When asked how much it would cost if I only did (whatever), I tell them it will cost double what I quoted, because my guys would be working against muscle memory to do such crappy work.

[@Jacob-yx5vz]

My old man has been in business for 14 years, his business is definitely on a large scale as of right now. Been working for him since 14 yrs old and am gonna take over when he retires in about 6-8 years.

[@jn2400]

Have you adjusted your prices for 2024? I could do a day of hedging and buy a few items of groceries and broke 😂

[@firstclasslawnsnow3395]

Nice description video.. So what do you do when your customers want a design off a program or want paver, wall work?

[@angelamwatts]

I live in a duplex apartment and I am responsible for the grounds. I found a landscaper who was cutting the grass down the street. He came and looked at the job that needed to be done on the property. I need a MAJOR overhaul. This includes pulling weeds (they look like trees they are so bad) and trimming azalea bushes, cutting grass but pulling a whole lot of weeds. I have a tiny lawn in the front, I have a small yard in the back and an Island patch of grass plus the curb grass. The weed job is IMO a major project. He wants to charge me $800 which I thought was a fair price considering the work involved. My BFF in Florida (I live in Pennsylvania) told me that the price was outrageous. So, I am looking to see what the prices of landscaping are. So, I came on here and I think that the guy was more than fair with the price considering the work. I have no one in the family to do this work, plus I want it done professionally and of course, it's going to cost money. I disagree with my friend who believes that I am being over priced. It's hard work and I can't do this work, I have to pay someone. Plus I don't have the equipment and I don't know diddly squat about lawn care or even growing a plant. I am a city girl secretary, what the hell do I know about plants? Thanks for the video, I feel better knowing the prices of such work and feel safe that I am not getting ripped off. Thank you.

[@calebncontreras-117]

People like your friend are a death sentence to landscapers.

[@mackenziepeek9317]

That is a reasonable price. Some people just want cheap work but I'll tell you you get what you pay for in a landscaper

[@marcusjennings7616]

Thank you understanding that landscaping isn't cheap. We appreciate you😊

[@Axvo420]

You're def the coolest and most relatable youtube landscaper channel My man you help out a lot

[@Jesse-gv9tf]

I'm not sure this is considered landscaping. I think he's doing more gardening than landscaping.

[@yggdrasiltv3690]

Property maintenance we call it, however it does fall under the Landscaping name. Landscaping (construction) side is your paving, retaining walls, pergolas etc. Still agree with your comment Alex, Keith is very relatable and friendly not to mention informative on all facets of running a Landscaping business.

[@elitelawns9437]

Did you ever find out what type of shrub that was that you thought was a Wisteria? The Flower looks very similar to Abelia, but the leaves and growth pattern look different (unless pruned to a ball shape) I'm in Arkansas, so y'all have all kinds of different plants. And looks like you're there early spring, so flowers on Abelia in Michigan would be weird.

[@drewsfoodforest_tv]

I’m working a $16,000.00 project for a school garden and butterfly garden around the sign out front

[@KreSade01]

Do you have any videos for people just trying to start. Someone who doesn't have the dump trucks and such. I only have my SUV. How would you price for a beginner. I get you charge a price for the lawn mowing, but also the man hours. I've been in the industry for 10 years with Hardscaping.

[@nevillekidd364]

Neville from unique Landscape services, just letting you know that my business was birth in April you inspired me brother. Thank you. When you have time check me out on you tube and let me know how I'm doing

[@dawnnathan3464]

I know I'm always way under charging! How can I make sure I'm not? Is there a basic rule of thumb to follow? Say you have a 40 by 100 'never weeded tilled , planted nothing what do you charge a foot to do all that plus design and plant ?

[@ryanfriske3788]

Is the yard waste charge on top of your man hours? For example a $250 spring clean-up with 2 yards of debris, would cost? Thanks!

[@Allnight432]

Awesome Guy! Great channel!! A buck a sqft for Sodding sounds to cheap though. :)

[@celinaxo9219]

I got a job for 223 cu yards and you said charge $100 per yard?? how do I tell people I’m charging them over 20k to install soil

[@edgardomatos6923]

your spot on , ive done mulch in my own , ljke red , i dont . brown or black , but anyway , doing a mulch job for someone else is a little nerve wrecking . but i like seeing beds neat , ill be ok ..will see .. your beds are gorgeous

[@arturojimenez4382]

Does your $100 per yard of much installation cover edging, pulling weeds cleaning out the beds?

[@santasantinagatta]

Thank you Keith, suggestion for your logo name place the hedge on the legs of the k and not the trunk of the letter K- so that it looks like the hedge on the legs of the letter k will fall from the cut.

[@WsaNonya9976]

Great lessons here: Don't sell (price) yourself short in life... and Price is Perception.

[@marcoantonio6966]

How much you pay to your Mexican worker. 10/h? Do you seat in your truck all day watching them make rich?

[@mermaidman961]

That's so weird 12 rules for life is on my reading list this year

[@jn2400]

Anyone with lavarock should be charged double lol

[@dallasklahr1362]

you are awesome. I appreciate your videos, tips and information. thank you

[@ltorrezz8312]

FAST FORWARDING 5 YEARS WITH INFLATION WHAT WOULD YOU PRICE THIS

[@chrisryan8798]

Great video! Prices are pretty good I live in Cleveland and all my prices are about the same. One thing i would suggest, especially since you have the man power, start contacting property management companies for over grown Cleveland/ Detroit houses I charge 300 to 600, no real skill involved great work for 10$ an hr labor. And then being a landscaper you have all the same equipment needed for trash clean outs. Also no.skill involved great for a good labor force

[@diegosmunchies9744]

Awesome.... love you videos thinking about starting my own business here in Cali. Great advice, love how your very detailed

[@ACMEMowing]

Another excellent video! My son and I have learned an absolute boat-load from you. We'll be posting a video on Saturday of a massive cleanup that we are doing this week for $3385.00. Before I tuned into your channel I would have bid that same job at $2000. You taught us not to underbid ourselves and have faith in ourselves. We appreciate that sir! Tune into our channel on Sat and tell us what you think of our cleanup!

[@hav_a_nice_jay]

Watch all of Keith's videos! Soo many golden nuggets in each video. Ive been working as a garden foreman for a reputable company in my area for the past few years. Im sick of busting my tail, producing quality work, just so my boss can be the one making all the money. Im sick of being told when to work, eat and sleep. This past weekend, after binge watching all of Keith's videos, I posted a garden maintenance ad on fb. I got bombarded with messages. I worked my first two side jobs yesterday and made $635! Not too bad for 10 hours of work. Find what your good at or take interest in and take action! Thanks for reading

[@keith-kalfas]

That's epic bro. So you posted a garden maintenance ad? What city?

[@jperales423]

I wanna see what a $4200 job looks like

[@abelrico3324]

Angel Gil I don’t think he’s that kinda guy

[@raypittman1063]

That was cheap $2000 just to cut down a full grown tree here and cut up the Stub ..

[@rafaelperez3978]

I think 4200 job is too little..you can charge 2000 more ..bro..

[@The_yeffy1]

I assume that will be his account for the summer to maintain he probably doesn't want to piss of the owner at the start of the season.

[@streetpunk99]

Pay 25 bucks for the year and download Picture This.

[@tautasion9659]

Hi Keith Iv learnt allot from you 4 years ago and now my Landscaping company is Booming ❤ ... All the way from Papua new guinea 🇵🇬

[@tonycowser1843]

$50 a man hour, how much does that man actually get out of that $50???🤔🤔

[@aaron2081]

Thank for the video, Keith! When I went solo with a landscaping business, I literally watched all your videos to figure out how to make money doing this! You've been a blessing to a lot of people! Thanks again!

[@AutoClark]

Hi Keith never commented or msg you but i want to let you know that 3 years ago i watched your videos every night for a month . I did that because i could relate to your story . I went from working lawns for a few years for others then got my own then to a tree service and was afraid to make the leap for so long but some of your videos really helped and i wanted to make sure i acknowledged at what point and made you aware . I noticed from watching that your not just about seeking notariety (mispelled) lol but you genuinely care about making ex employees future entrees aware of the trials and tribulations before they make the leap . Now my business is thriving and make sure to thank anyone who helped me to get to where i am .. Thanks again i am always checking on your page from time to time . keep doing what your doing it's appreciated

[@abrahamsanchez496]

Good tips to learn how make your business better .👍👍

[@ishaqkhodor1388]

How much would you charge to build a 4x8 raised bed?

[@noahchildress9547]

Mulch is installed at $130/yd where I am

[@robertomontes8286]

Las tortugas

[@davidburden2360]

Great vid but do not itemise too much otherwise you lose, charge a total price like a banquet in a resturant

[@josekatheone4806]

THANKS really, you inspiring people

[@yairval9]

mulch is 126 per yard now i am charging 140

[@energybasics]

Bro thank you for all these tips! Hey I'm in Michigan also. Where do you dump? I've called around but cannot find a place

[@jrgonzales8935]

Idk the situation work landscaping.

[@canammasseymd.2534]

Homeowner: “um, we’ve decided to go with someone else”. Landscaper: “was it the price?” Homeowner: “yes, but mainly the haircut”

[@ratchethours4360]

CanAm Massey MD. Lol

[@ryanhoff6705]

That was good

[@DerrikNikkelStudios]

you helped inspire me to start my tree removal company and i now too am helping tree guys on youtube lol thanks bro i still watch your vids to this day

[@garyeisele2810]

Great advice, Maybe I am over charging for pruning? I always charge a hourly rate of $50, for timing (using my Stihl trimmer and Stihl hand hedge trimmers for fine clean up after I blow) or pruning with my pole pruner/ hand saw or power saw and pruning shears. Any Ornamental shrubs or Japanese lace leaf maples I charge $75.00 per hr because they are a lot more delicate and require more of an eye to do right. I tried to itemize but I feel that I am cutting myself short on time it takes me plus for hauling away all the debris. I like to look at a clean bush that has all the dead wood removed and possibility if a previous yard maint guy whos blows all the crap under the bush, (I hate that!) I like a tighty looking yard with plants that have room and a high and tight edging! I love my Stihl Bed Re-definer great tool then hitting it with a metal blade edger to get that crisp edge!!

[@Greengreen-qv3be]

Wtf anyone think the thumbnail looks like older Mike from Jersey Shore

[@coreys.4778]

Do you have your own mulch and soil or do you buy it from a dealer?

[@compahershey3149]

Good job lol im sorry bro but you look like mike the situation from Jersey shore lol

[@irajackson6423]

Yes lmao my thoughts exactly

[@gabriellemartin4148]

Jordan Peterson! You know what's up!

[@dskrpncs]

What are those things around your neck?

[@TheBarefootedGardener]

Good video! Thanks for the tips! FYI, Those are white spruce, not hemlock. The other shrubs are likely Deutzia. I just don’t cross my arms when I give plant names! 😂 12 rules for life is a great book!

[@cityevergreen3605_vlog]

😂😂😂 it’s Indian hawthorn! 🌸

[@jeffhill2975]

Thats right. Got to charge what it's worth. 👍

[@yardmasterswealtheducation8424]

Is my yardwork "worth" what I quote? Yes. In every case. My yardwork is worth exactly what I quoted, because I am the one who will be providing it, and that is what it is worth to me.

And I begin to walk away...

[@The_Gallowglass]

So what he's saying is make sure you prep and price the job right so that your job is quicker, easier, and you can move on to more jobs and make that $$$.

[@denisatchley6721]

Great video man..

[@geravega77]

Thank u so much for this video I'm still learning on how to price for labor. But will get there one day

[@jds6014]

3,400 sf of sod with top soil. What would u charge?

[@tillerted2322]

Do you charge extra for camera time and using words like delineation lol! That’s gotta be worth 100$ extra man!!

[@jennbraemer1]

[@espiridiongutierrez8953]

[@truetru9910]

[@Hewittbc]

Love your videos brother! Where at in Michigan? I live and own a Design + Build Company in Marshall

[@kevinsolomita672]

Still sounds cheap

[@Mangold2865]

Only 7 yards?? Must be super lightly spread

[@aci8151]

Really appreciate the good content. I'm based in the UK and my business provides landscaping & garden design services & landscaping work. Personally I have a background in architecture and a thorough horticultural knowledge. I would say it is important for the landscapers on the ground to have a good knowledge of the plants they are dealing with so they can provide them with the correct care - e.g types of soil treatment to address acid/alkaline need or mineral uptake for the plant, how and when to prune to achieve certain outcomes, correct practice for cleaning pruning equipment between plants as not to spread disease through a garden etc - but they definitely should be able to identifying by sight and name every plant you are working with in order to do this. Great content all the same.

[@wilellis8866]

Keith you're still the best channel on here man. There are a lot of pretenders but you are the man. Keep up the good work!

[@TopNotchPropertyServiceLLC]

great video you're the man.

Oh my god thank you sooooo much this is why I subscribed to your channel thank you again man your a god sent

[@gigglesilly17]

I think the one thing that is shitty about landscaping that people don't realize is leaves. Leaves suck.

[@johncunningham3039]

I enjoyed the video. Would like to have seen the final product.

[@lilrahty2829]

Thanks for the advice

[@growrootslandscape465]

What licenses does MI require for you to operate your company based on the back of your shirt & side of your trailer?

[@5thgencamarosslife835]

Really appreciate your video. Just started my landscaping business and have really been struggling with the pricing. Your video really helped me. Thank you.

[@MechanicalMikesRoadsideRepair]

It’s 2:30am and I’m watching but I agree with the money thing I’m sick of getting shitty ass pay so I’m trying to get hustling

[@jamesadair7273]

You guys in the U.S get big prices for what looks like not a lot of work . But I can see it adds up . James U.K

[@barrshaw7385]

excellent fricken video dude!.. I used to do Gardening for a landscaping company!.. and if its dead brown or dying... rip it out , and watch out for trigger happy people with blowers ! they can make it worse when blowing out the gardens. =D

[@markmilan01]

Your information has been valuable to me since I first heard you a couple of weeks ago. I greatly appreciate it.

[@srednaart]

This was really helpful to see! I have no idea what landscaping costs so this made sense when breaking it down
