"I would like to giver V & M an A+++! Veronica and Oscar are fantastic to work with. They went over the plans with us and were very flexible with any changes we wanted to make. The final outcome is just beautiful. They made this whole project so easy. You will be so happy with them. They are very talented and knowledgeable with plants and materials. They also repurposed materials like river rocks from the parking strip to make a beautiful dry riverbed in the old lawn area. New stone facia was placed over the old, tired looking brick. They planted a beautiful variety of plants and 2 trees. The parking strip also came out great! I can't say enough good things about Veronica and Oscar. I am now looking around to see what other projects we can tackle together!!"

"Emmanuel did an excellent job cleaning our gutters and solar panels. He worked in tough conditions (rain and wind) and managed to get everything spotless. He showed up on time, worked diligently until the job was completed and thoroughly cleaned up when he was finished. We would highly recommend him for this job and will be calling on him again."

"This was a giant coastal hillside project with drainage, terracing, lighting, irrigation, walls built, stairs built, pet relief area created, and tons of rocks placed and plantings. Raul and his crew were top notch. They worked efficiently and quickly. The crew was clean and respectful. Raul was so easy to work with and took care of all the details that you want addressed. It could not have been easier! I would 100% recommend Raul for any landscape job you are looking for. He even has a maintenance crew for weekly upkeep!"

The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the finished pavement looks fantastic—clean lines, solid craftsmanship, and it’s built to last. They were respectful of the space, cleaned up thoroughly after the job, and completed everything on time. I highly recommend Velasco Landscaping for anyone looking for top-notch paving work and reliable service. Definitely a 5-star experience!"

"Shane did an amazing job for us clearing nearly an acre of various mountain brush and bramble. Wielding a Brush Hog, a string Trimmer and a compact chainsaw. Two 7 hour days did what I thought was going to be a week. I tried to upload photos of the work from Google Photos but Angi doesn't support high quality pictures."

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

Shredded hardwood black mulch and red mulch are the two best types of mulch for landscaping purposes. They last a few seasons, look nice in your yard, and are affordable (about $40 or less per cubic yard). Contact your mulch delivery pro to discuss which mulch type works best for your needs.

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

Yes, you can put soil on top of existing grass to level small areas. This is helpful for filling in small divots or leveling out minor dips in your yard that collect rainwater. However, this isn’t a good option if you need to regrade your entire lawn. It’s better to have a professional excavate some of the dirt first so that the level of the lawn doesn’t rise too high.

It can be tedious and time-consuming to install your own mulch and determine the ideal amount. A professional can help you ensure the right thickness and save you a lot of time and headaches.
