" We hired Diverse Scape Pools & Spas for a total landscape redesign of our front and backyard, and the results are beyond our wildest dreams. From the very start, Diverse Scape Pools & Spas listened carefully to our vision and provided excellent, creative suggestions that we hadn't even considered. The final design was a masterpiece, but the execution was even more impressive. The crew was professional, hardworking, and meticulously clean every day. The project involved everything from a new stone wall and paver patio to new plantings and landscape lighting, and the entire team handled it with incredible skill and attention to detail. The project stayed on schedule and on budget, and the communication throughout the process was excellent. We now have a stunning outdoor space that we get compliments on constantly.

"Mauricio from Solid Ground Landscaping LLC is an incredible gardener, handyman, landscaper, etc. and there is pretty much nothing that he cannot do with amazing talent! He came very highly recommended and got to work the same day with a very hard working crew, punctual and ready to work and did above and beyond what I asked him to do.

"Working with Armando was a very positive experience from initial contact to the completion of the job. He is very knowledgeable, takes pride in his work and is thorough in explaining his process. He offers fare reasonable pricing and stands behind his work. He and his crew of 2 did a great job of general clean up, removal of old tree cuttings & fire wood, trimming trees & shrubs of our sizable, slightly neglected backyard. Everything was left clean & tidy upon completion. "

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can lay pea gravel directly on the dirt. First, dig a trench 2 to 6 inches deep the length and width of the area you want to cover. Plants and weeds will eventually grow through the pea gravel if you don’t lay down landscaping cloth.

Pea gravel comes in a variety of colors, including cream, white, black, gray, and brown being some of the most popular choices for homeowners. You can also find red, yellow, green, and even multicolor options for your landscaping needs. The price of pea gravel is about $350 for the typical home improvement project.

Gravel is a versatile option for home projects. It is low-maintenance and cost-effective compared to other materials. In addition, gravel provides excellent drainage, reducing the risk of flooding in your yard or driveway. Pairing gravel with a weed barrier fabric during installation can mitigate the risk of weed growth.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Mulching any time of year can be beneficial, so you can choose based on your preference. Most homeowners avoid the winter and summer because of the uncomfortable temperatures, so spring and fall are often best. Try not to mulch right before heavy rainfall or a big storm is expected, as wind and runoff can move newly laid mulch around and make more work for you.
