In-Home repotting
Have a plant that’s too big to bring into the shop? Or, maybe too many? We’ll come to you!
How it works: Email us at SynthesisPGH@gmail.com. Let us know how many plants, their sizes and their names, if you know them. Photos are always appreciated as well. If you need larger pots, we recommend going up an inch or two from what it’s currently in, unless you think it’s quite root bound and really could use more room. We can bring them, if you want to order them from us, or we’ll happily work with what you’ve got. Please make sure pots are clean if suppling your own. We like to use Dr. Earth Pot of Gold Organic All-Purpose Potting Soil for any Pothos, Philodendrons, Calatheas, Marantas and other similar houseplants. For Aroids, Palms, Ficus and other tropical plants that require a faster draining mix we go for Fox Farm Bush Doctor Coco Loco. We make our own cactus soil.
Our rates: We’ll come to you for $75, this includes one hour of our time plus1.5 cf bag of soil. If more soil is needed each additional bag of Dr Earth will be $22 and Fox Farm will be $30. Soil is charged by the whole bag. If more time is needed each additional hour will be $65 and will be billed by the hour. If you live more than 6 miles from the shop, an additional travel fee will be added.
If you have cacti and succulents that you’d like repotted, please send us all of the info first. This soil costs us a lot more to make. Plus, we pretty much always leave with spines stuck in our skin, so it’ll potentially be a higher rate.

We will always try to repot your plant while you wait, but if we’re busy, we may ask you to come back later in the day. If you’re unable to return that day, we’ll add an additional $10 babysitting charge per plant, per week.
If we find bugs on your plants, we will not repot them, please check them first so you don’t waste a trip.
