With over a decade of experience in residential construction and project management, I bring both hands-on skill and big-picture expertise to every job. As a licensed project manager for high-end homes in Los Angeles, I’ve overseen everything from framing and electrical to finish carpentry, cabinetry, and custom details. On Angi, I offer the same level of care for homeowners looking for reliable help with: • Carpentry and cabinetry • Finish and trim work • Small painting projects • General handyman repairs • Custom builds and installations I pride myself on clear communication, professional standards, and leaving every space better than I found it. Whether it’s a small repair or a larger project, I treat each job with the same dedication I bring to managing multimillion-dollar builds.

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mulching any time of year can attract termites, so there’s no added risk in the fall. The important thing to remember is that termites are attracted to rotting wood, so you need to lay a thin enough layer that won’t trap too much moisture and lead to rotting. A layer between 1 and 4 inches thick should provide all the benefits you’re looking for without attracting termites.

Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.

Pea gravel can retain some heat, but it generally stays cooler than materials like concrete, asphalt, or stone pavers. Lighter-colored pea gravel reflects more sunlight and tends to stay cooler, while darker-colored gravel can absorb heat and become warmer to the touch.

While you don’t need to put anything down before mulch, you can apply a pre-emergent herbicide to prevent weed growth. As long as you remove weeds before you spread mulch, you should be in the clear. But a herbicide is something that you can put down before mulch as an extra layer of protection.

The best equipment for moving large rocks from your yard depends on their size and weight. A heavy-duty wheelbarrow or a rock dolly can be effective for smaller boulders. A skid-steer loader or a mini-excavator with a grapple attachment provides the necessary power and control for larger, heavier rocks that you can’t lift manually. Professionals may use a larger excavator and ratchet hoist to remove larger boulders.
