The length readings, priced apart by frame
| Length reading | Frame A reading | Frame B reading |
|---|---|---|
| Per linear foot | $15-$20 installed, $18 average | materials-only table, $0.50-$18 by material |
| Project totals | rows at the $18 average, $180-$1,800 | $400-$2,200 average range, $1,500 national average |
| Shortest and longest printed ends | 10-foot row / 100-foot row | $100 minimum / $7,900 maximum |
Each reading is one frame's own counting of one length: a 10-foot row is a tree-ring row, a 100-foot row is a house-line row.

Frame B's rows are materials only, printed beside Frame A's installed rows and never merged with them. The two frames price different things -- Frame A's per-foot band is installed, labor and materials together, while Frame B's per-foot table is materials-only, installation apart. That difference is named as a frame difference on every page here, never averaged.
The totals behind the rows, and the neighbours named apart
Behind the rows stand the headline totals: Frame A installed at $15 to $20 per linear foot with higher-end work near $50, Frame B at a $400 to $2,200 average range with a $1,500 national average, a $100 minimum, and a $7,900 maximum. The materials, labor, and ground-prep lines price apart on the breakdown guide, beside its coloring, stamping, and old-edging removal adders. Named apart, never a row here: loose DIY edging products sold by the strip or roll, a retail materials purchase carried only in the frames' materials-only rows; paver and retaining borders, hardscape structures in their own clusters; lawn-care edging, a mowing-service add-on and a recurring service line; and concrete flatwork, driveway and patio pours as their own tickets.
