"I hired Oliver as he assured me he and his crew could do the jobs I had requested. He used my refinished table as a cutting surface for the brick and scratched my table. His brick cuts were awful. He used brick on the walkway that I had purchased and set aside for the pizza oven. Although he had the brick example, he purchased more brick in completely wrong colors. I went and bought the correct brick on my own, picked it up, and he did not reimburse me. He didn't use enough polymeric sand for the walkway, and I supplied most of it, when he should have, as part of the supplies quote. The walkway is not straight and has tripping hazards as surfaces were left uneven. He reused the existing edging when I understood he would be replacing it. He left large gaps between the edging and the brick in many areas. He was unable to mason the brick oven, and instead slopped it with a succo-like? coating that has cracked all over. He broke our pathway lights and didn't let us know they were no longer working. He did not weld the gate. The timeline was 6 days to complete, and after 30 days, the work was still not complete. The work was so unsatisfactory and Oliver quit before completing the work stating it was "100 percent on him and unfortunately left us with some expectations unmet, and he was sorry." I would attach photos for your reference, if I could. I'm hesitant to use an Angi's recommendation again."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

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.

You can choose from various kinds of organic mulch and inorganic mulch. Organic mulch may be in the form of wood chips, pine needles, and compost and eventually decompose. Inorganic mulch, such as gravel, rocks, and landscape fabric, is more durable but doesn’t help the soil.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

The most important part of preparing the ground for an above ground pool is leveling. Your above ground pool must rest on a completely level surface or it can collapse. Make sure you also remove grass and debris that could puncture the liner. This includes things like vegetation, rocks, twigs, and roots.

In most cases, it’s better to remove rocks before adding mulch. Layering the two will restrict drainage and plant health, and can create an unpleasant texture underfoot.
