to Save Time with Go iLawn InstantEstimator
Even though each property is different and demands a unique solution, the work needed to measure, estimate, and service each property is the same. You can better control your measuring and estimating process by implementing systems – reliable, consistent, and repeatable processes.
Pre-designed for quick and easy measuring, Go iLawn InstantEstimator‘s landscaping job Templates will systematize your estimating process and ensure consistent time and material estimating by using standard processes and ensuring nothing slips through the cracks.
With Go iLawn, you can improve your speed and save money by removing the overhead time spent on setting up your measuring groups with each new project. Use Templates to create your pre-defined groups and services that automatically apply to any new project you create!
What is a Template?
Templates allow you to customize your default groups and services that will appear when you start a new project. Upon Project creation, you can apply one of the Templates on your account.
Template Customization
Each template has been pre-designed for you so that they are ready to use as soon as you create your account. However, each one can be customized to your preferences, with changes such as:
- Fill color, outline color, and opacity of each group
- Group names
- Assigned services
- Measurement units
- Remove Groups and Services you don’t need
- Add Custom Groups and Services that are not provided for you by default
- and more!
Template Types
Custom Landscaping Job Template
The Custom Template is derived from old Go iLawn’s single, customizable template. This is the template created from the groups and services that users had when we released the template feature. For new users that were not with us during the introduction of templates, we’ve defined a set of groups and services to get you started.
Go iLawn Landscaping Custom Groups and Service template. Remember – You can always edit, remove, and add your own groups and services.
General Mowing
The General Mowing Template covers the fundamentals of landscape maintenance. Measuring groups are colored using dark outlines and opaque shading that produce high contrast measuring shapes.
It helps you create visual project maps that clearly separate different types of work and make a great impression on the customer.

You and/or your team have collected and assembled the groups and services associated with this template over time. You can mix and match groups and services from other templates here, or continue to add (or remove) new ones as you see fit.
Snow Template
The Snow Removal Template was designed for more than just measuring and estimating a snow job quickly. It helps you create a dynamic sitemap that shows crews what direction to push the snow.
Use it to make impressive sales presentations by revealing each group one at a time. This lets you show the customer how each service contributes to a comprehensive snow plan that helps their property safe and accessible this winter.
