Ways to lower your Glendale price

  • Phase the project: hardscape and grading first, plantings the following season.
  • Use smaller plants — a 1-gallon shrub becomes a 5-gallon shrub in two years at a quarter of the price.
  • Seed instead of sod where you can wait; the savings are dramatic.
  • Do your own demo, mulching and cleanup and pay for skilled work only.
  • Choose native plants to cut irrigation and replacement costs long term.
