A small but growing 2 year old company servicing MOST of New Castle County DE. Two small teams - one does lawn cutting etc., and another crew does landscaping tasks. Total employees of 7 including Owner .
"Absolutely horrible. This company is nothing but a scam. The foreman of this company will make a bunch of promises and then break all of them. They took my money and ran after accomplishing next to nothing. Even worse, they crushed our utility cart and smashed our shed. They even installed our drainage line from our gutter on our neighbor's property. They will not respond to us, the BBB or a certified letter. We left a review reflecting their (poor) quality work on their Facebook page and they took the page down. We will unquestionably be taking them to court. The attached pictures are of how they left the job when they ceased all work. Nothing has been done since. *** Update*** Please see our previous review! Update as of 1/12/2020. Apparently the Owner (Erik) was kept in the dark for the most part regarding this situation. Once being updated in detail as to what went on, Erik stepped up to the plate and reconciled with us. Basically, Erik is a good guy. He made the huge mistake of hiring a very dishonest and deceptive foreman. This particular foreman (who by the way, has now started his own landscaping company) was 100% responsible for all of the problems that we had. From my experience with Erik, I would not hesitate to use his company in the future now that the "problem" is gone. We only thought it was fair to add this portion of the review since Erik rectified the situation."

FAQs for mulch and topsoil service projects in Cheswold, DE
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 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.
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.
