Start with the estimate.
Two people × eight hours × $32 loaded labor cost = $512 labor. Add $680 materials, $120 equipment, $90 delivery and $150 allocated overhead: $1,552 entered job cost.
A 25% target margin gives $1,552 ÷ 0.75 = $2,069.34, rounded upward to the next cent. The four extra plants add $180 cost and a $240 customer price. The bed area remains 216 ft².
Try the same assumptions.

Sample Landscape Co. (fictional) Jordan L. (fictional) Willow Court / project WC-01 - fictional property reference
Goals
Refresh the front planting bed; simplify ongoing care; retain the existing tree outside the work area.
Observations
Fictional measured bed: 12 ft x 18 ft = 216 ft². Access and staging reviewed in this example. Soil, light, utilities and product suitability require actual professional review on a real job.
Scope
Provisional: remove agreed existing plants, prepare the defined bed, install 18 selected plants and specified mulch, clean up and provide care information.
Exclusions
No tree work, grading, drainage engineering, irrigation alterations, electrical work or ongoing maintenance.
Materials
Selections require a reviewed plant schedule. The sample 2-inch material depth is an arithmetic assumption, not an installation recommendation.
Timing
Site visit first; no production date promised. Verify decisions, materials and crew capacity before confirming installation.
Budget
Pricing pending; customer budget discussion is not a quote.
Changes
Estimator resolves open selections, then sends scope revision 0 for review. Changed work requires the agreed approval process.

Proposal scope

Reference
WC-01 / scope revision 0 / fictional review copy
Objective
Refresh the 216 ft² front bed while retaining the existing tree outside the agreed work area.
Work
Agreed plant removal and disposal; defined bed preparation; 18 selected plants; specified mulch; delivery; installation; protection, cleanup and care handoff.
Selections
18 plants on reviewed sample schedule. Material-volume example: 216 ft² x 2 in / 12 = 36 ft³; 10% allowance gives 39.6 ft³. Confirm actual product, yield and ordering increments.
Excluded
Tree work, drainage/grading changes, irrigation/electrical alterations and recurring maintenance. New conditions require review before changed work.
Pricing
Base price $2,069.34 before any applicable tax. Fictional cost: $1,552.00; target margin 25%. Tax omitted for this worked arithmetic example; determine actual treatment before billing.
Timing
Start remains subject to site readiness, selection approval, materials, weather and capacity. An estimate appointment is not an installation booking.
Terms
Fictional payment plan: $500 deposit actually received after acceptance; remaining work billed through the reviewed invoice. Change requests are priced and approved before changed work. This sample is not a legal contract.

Change record

Reference
WC-01 / change 01 against scope revision 0
Requested
Fictional customer requests four additional plants within the same bed. Revised plant total: 22.
Effects
Same 216 ft² bed and mulch quantity. Add four reviewed plants. Incremental labor: 4 person-hours x $32 = $128; materials $52; incremental cost $180.
Price
Proposed and fictionally accepted increase: $240 before any applicable tax. $180 / 0.75 = $240 at a 25% target margin. Revised project price $2,309.34.
Timing
Review supplier availability and production capacity. No changed installation date is confirmed in this example.
Pending
Crew follows the original scope until the sample approval is recorded. Do not treat this document as a real authorization.
Decision
Fictional status: accepted by Jordan L. under the sample project process. No actual signature or customer approval is captured by this tool.
Handoff
Issue scope revision 1 and 22-plant schedule to the crew; mark revision 0 superseded. Keep the bed area and mulch assumptions unchanged.

Fictional working record / WC-01
Closeout & care handoff
Sample Landscape Co. (fictional) Jordan L. (fictional) Willow Court / project WC-01 - fictional property reference
Reference
WC-01 / scope revision 1, including accepted change 01. Fictional completion: defined bed preparation, 22 reviewed plants, specified mulch, cleanup.
Installed
22 plants per sample revision 1 schedule. Retained tree outside work area. Actual projects need species, sizes, product identifiers, substitutions and relevant supplier instructions.
Open
Sample open item: estimator sends the final supplier care sheet before closing the record. Owner: estimator. Customer questions remain open until answered; no follow-up visit is booked.
Care
Provide the actual installed-plant and product instructions from the responsible professional or supplier. Discuss establishment care, observation and contact process; this sample does not prescribe a universal watering schedule.
Responsibilities
Contractor supplies the agreed care records and handles listed open work. Customer follows the reviewed site-specific care information. Actual written warranty terms govern coverage.
Followup
Customer uses the agreed contact to raise questions. Any additional visit must be separately reviewed and confirmed.
Records
Scope revision 1; accepted change 01; installed-selection record; open-item list; invoice WC-01-I; partial-payment receipt WC-01-R. Permission is required before publishing actual property photos.
