How do you establish your landscaping budget?

Before you begin designing your garden.

There are two ways to formulate your landscaping budget.

What you need first in both cases...

List what elements you wish to include. i.e., paving, decking, pergola, planting, lighting, etc.
The listing above offers clarity. With this, try estimating the area to be covered by each. i.e., 30m2 of paving, 50m2 of grass, 40m2 of decking, etc.
Note anything that may influence cost. i.e., you want mature planting, high-end paving stone, a full outdoor kitchen with appliances, etc.
