Pricing methods
How are jobs priced?
Free on-site estimate
Best for bigger or unclear jobs, like a turnover or rot you can't see the end of.
Hourly for mixed lists
Some mixed lists are easier to estimate by time. We tell you the estimate before we start.
Per shrub
Shrub removal is quoted per shrub, roots included.
Cost factors
What changes the price, and how can you save?
Your price depends on four things: the size of the job, access (high, tight or hard-to-reach spots take longer), materials, and condition (hidden rot or damage). If conditions differ from the photo, we stop and talk with you before doing any extra work.
- Bundle several small jobs into one visit.
- Send clear photos, plus one from farther back.
- Supply your own materials if you prefer.
- Book gutters and yard work before the fall rush.
How it works
What happens after you text us a photo?
We call this the Photo-to-Flat-Price Method. It is how most of our jobs start, and it means you know the price before any work begins.
- Text a photo. Send a clear photo and one line about the job to (859) 438-2150. Add a second photo from farther back so we can see the whole area.
- Get a flat price. We reply within one business day with one flat price for the job, or an hourly estimate if the job can't be judged from a photo.
- Pick a time. Reply to book, or book online. Bigger jobs get a free on-site estimate first.
- We do it right. Frank does the work himself. If a job turns out different from the photo, such as hidden rot, we stop and talk with you before doing any extra work.
- Pay your way, backed for a year. Pay by cash, card, Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, Cash App or Apple Pay. Labor on every job is guaranteed for one year.

FAQ
Pricing questions, answered
Are estimates free?
Yes. Photo quotes and on-site estimates are free and carry no obligation.
Why don't you list an hourly rate?
Most customers want to know the total, not the rate. We text one flat price for the whole job.
Is the texted price final?
Yes, for the work described. If hidden damage changes the job, we talk with you before doing extra work.
Do prices differ by area?
No. The same pricing applies across Lexington and the nearby towns we serve.
When do I pay?
When the job is done, by cash, card, Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, Cash App or Apple Pay.
