Who this template is for

Landscaping Project Brief Form is built for builders, electricians, plumbers and contractors who need to scope a job and price it without a site visit for every enquiry.

  • Builders, electricians, plumbers and contractors working in home services & trades.
  • Teams who need to scope a job and price it without a site visit for every enquiry without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing quoting blind and travelling out for work that never lands with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are homeowners and site managers — the form asks them 17 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of quoting blind and travelling out for work that never lands and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 10 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It accepts a document or photo upload as evidence.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Does water pool anywhere after heavy rain?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Where does the water collect?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Is the property subject to an HOA or design approval?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Has the HOA approved the work?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features advanced show logic: if “Which elements are in scope?” includes Irrigation, the form dynamically exposes “Is there an existing irrigation system?”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

Should design consultations be free?

Many crews charge a design fee and credit it against the install. The brief makes that easier to justify because the customer can see how much thinking happens before anyone arrives.

How detailed should the site photos be?

Four photos from the corners of the work area plus one of the access route is enough for a first pass at scope and equipment.

Can I use this for commercial grounds work?

Yes — swap the HOA question for a property manager and site contact question, and add a question about after-hours access.

Does it replace a measured survey?

No. It is a scoping brief; measurements still happen on site or from a survey before you commit to materials quantities.

Yes. You can preview and test Landscaping Project Brief Form on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.
