"I recently hired Sanchez Brothers to handle trimming, shrub removal, and a full clean-up of my backyard, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. From the very beginning, their customer service stood out, they were quick to respond, professional in their communication, and made sure they fully understood what I wanted done. The team arrived on time, well-prepared, and got right to work. They were incredibly efficient and hardworking, carefully trimming and removing overgrown shrubs while keeping the surrounding areas neat and undisturbed. I appreciated how they paid attention to detail and followed through on every request I made. The clean-up afterward was just as impressive."

"5 stars! Eric has been so responsive, professional, hard working and honest. We were looking for lawn mowing, weeding and mulching and Eric provided detailed quotes quickly...and his pricing was very competitive with other businesses. On work days Eric and Trey show up early and work non-stop until the job is done. The results look fantastic -- and they always make sure to clean up. Most importantly, Eric is honest -- when a job was finished faster than expected and less material was used he discounted the bill accordingly. We have been so pleased with Leeds we are going to also use them for fertilizing and weed control going forward."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mulch can increase the aesthetic and curb appeal of your property, and it provides a ton of benefits for your trees, shrubs, and even your foundation. Here are some of the benefits of installing mulch:

  • Protects your trees from weed whacker strikes

  • Helps regulate moisture in the soil for better plant and tree health

  • Can improve your home’s curb appeal and, therefore, your property value

  • Reduces how much runoff soaks into the soil around your foundation, potentially reducing the risk of foundation damage and leaking

Gravel’s biggest pro is its cost-effectiveness. For example, a gravel road or driveway is much more affordable than its asphalt counterpart. Gravel is also much less expensive than the cost of pouring a concrete slab if you’re building a patio or similar structure.

However, regarding comfort and convenience, gravel is far less foot-friendly than smoother substances like concrete or asphalt. It’s also more of a challenge to drive on and may kick up dust, resulting in the inevitable need for extra car washes. Lastly, there’s a chance it might move with rain or snow.

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.

If you decide to DIY your boulder removal project, you’ll want to wear work gloves and protect your eyes if you decide to break the boulder into smaller pieces. Wear a lifting harness and focus on lifting with your legs to prevent back injuries. If you’re digging around a large boulder or using heavy machinery to get underneath it, make sure there are no utility lines nearby.

A good driveway should have a solid base layer and a smooth surface layer of gravel. A base layer of larger gravel, around 1 to 2 inches, keeps the foundation stable and helps with drainage. For the top layer, smaller gravel, about 1/4 to 1/2 inches, compacts well and creates an even surface that’s easier to drive on. Using both ensures the driveway stays durable, drains properly, and doesn’t shift over time.
