What's the Going Rate for Installing Weed Fabric Over 2,000 Sq Ft?
Asked by Gard3nL0ver92
I'm planning to install weed fabric over about 2,000 square feet of flower beds that have quite a few flowers and bushes to work around. I'm aware of some of the downsides of weed fabric, but I'm set on using it. I'm curious about what I should expect to pay for this installation. Thanks for any insights!

Honestly, I'd think twice about weed fabric. It can be a real hassle. Just go for mulch instead and save yourself a lot of trouble!

Just a heads up, installing weed fabric might lead you to spend even more later on, like for removal. After a few years, it can become a total nightmare as weeds take hold. If you do decide to proceed, go for the heavy-duty woven stuff. It's sturdier and better for long-term use. And if you have trees, keep the fabric away from the trunks to avoid issues. Good luck!

If I were to quote this, I'd say it could range from $1,500 to $8,000, depending on how many people you have working and how long it takes. Just to lay down the fabric, you could be looking at about $1,500 to $2,000. Keep in mind, that doesn't include anything like removing old mulch or weeds.
