Edging

In our example landscape design, there’s a small amount of edging located in the blue-outlined area along the edge of the lawn.


If this is your first time working in landscape sections, we recommend reviewing the Beds article first. It walks through the basics and uses the same sample project referenced here.

Adding Edging to Your Proposal

If you haven’t already added edging:

  1. Click Edit in the top right corner.

  1. Select Edging from the template library.

  1. Click Save to add it to your proposal.


Materials & Labor

Once Edging is selected, move to the Materials/Labor area. You’ll see one option labeled Edging Type with a blue Connect Item button.

  • Click Connect Item to choose your specific product and enter the quantity.

  • In our example, we used 25 ft of Ace of Diamond plastic edging.

  • To add more materials, click +Add Material and choose from the Materials sidebar.

  • To adjust labor, double-click the Crew Hours value and enter the time manually.

Finalizing the Section

Once materials and labor are set, you can:

  • Change Crew Size, Add labor, equipment, or subcontractors as needed.

  • Enter a Description of Services to communicate the scope of work to your client.

  • Add Crew Notes for internal use, such as staging instructions or access details.


If you need help with these steps, refer to the Beds article, which walks through the process in detail.
