My backyard is just filled with dirt, and now I want to landscape it...?

I want grass and plants, with a type of "wave" pattern. And a divider between the grass and plants about 6 inches. (filled with concrete). I took an estimation and people say it should cost approximately $1500. Its about 50 ft by 15 ft. Is that a good price?

get a few quotes, don't choose the highest or the lowest.
Reply:Sounds kinda cheap, ask someone else for a quote.
Reply:It sounds like to good of a price for curbing, product and labor. Depending on quantity and value of the plants will be a factor. I'm not sure about this but I think curbing is around $3.00 per ft. That will probably be the most expensive part of your design. If your totally looking for a landscape contractor to do this make sure they have a business license first. 99% of reputable landscapers won't need money up front, they'll ask for a contract to be signed.
Reply:What area are you in? Your location makes a difference. Here in Central Florida that's a good price. There's so much competition here that that price is not unreasonable at all for that work.
