"We hired Paul for a complete redesign of our exterior spaces, including the pool area, upper terrace, and outdoor kitchen. The “before” looked tired and empty… old tile, no cohesive décor, and a layout that didn’t make the most of the space. Paul completely reimagined the entire outdoor experience. He selected the right plants, furniture, lighting, and layout to bring the space to life. The pool area now looks beautiful, with coordinated seating areas, umbrellas, greenery, and warm lighting that completely changed the atmosphere. The upper terrace (previously unused) is now a beautiful dining and entertaining space that feels cohesive, modern, and welcoming. His taste, creativity, and attention to detail were exceptional. He understood our style, maximized the space, and elevated the property far beyond what we expected. The work was efficient, the communication was excellent, and the final result is stunning. We are thrilled and would absolutely hire Paul again without a doubt!"

"We are very pleased with the quality of the wood chips and the work John and his helper did. We seldom say that someone exceeds our expectations, but they did. They arrived with a good quality product, followed instructions on where we wanted it, and when they were finished the yard looked beautiful. We will definitely use San Diego Mulch again."

Rivers Landscape is an innovative residential landscape design and construction firm, family owned and operated, with over two decades of experience in San Diego CA. We are a landscape contractor. We design and build custom outdoor kitchens, barbecue counters, outdoor fireplaces, fire pits, ponds, waterfalls, and fountains. We install landscape lighting, irrigation, and all other aspects of the landscaping as part of a remodel or new construction project. Serving San Diego County Since 1997.

"We started the process of getting estimates for our backyard pool/landscaping project in April 2019. Gabriel from Rivers was one of the first landscape contractors we met and we immediately liked him and loved his complimentary 3D design of our pool and landscaping. We proceeded to get several other estimates and though some were slightly less expensive, we kept going back to Gabriel's design and detailed estimate. Fast forward to late July, we decided to go with Gabriel and also hired Black Rock Pools for the pool construction. They were a great team and we love our back yard now! We needed everything for our backyard, demolition, retaining walls, 2,800 square feet of pavers, 2 fire pits, irrigation, drainage, tree removals, plants, sod, trees, fences and lighting. They also remodeled our fireplace in our home and mounted the TV over our fireplace. Every worker was competent and respectful. They were on the job every day, always on time and though we had some miscommunication issues over the 3 month project, they always made things right until we were happy."

FAQs for mulch and topsoil service projects in Julian, CA

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.

Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.

No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
