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."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re mulching in the fall, aim to lay down the material right after the first frost, which will vary by climate. Late October and early November are good time ranges to aim for. Try to lay down your mulch after a light rainfall to lock in moisture for root growth through the winter.

Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.

The best time to lay mulch depends on the type of mulch and the reason for installing it: 

  • Summer: Adding extra mulch helps soil retain moisture and keeps weeds at bay, allowing plants to thrive. 

  • Fall: Adding mulch helps control weeds and keeps soil and roots warm during the cooler months. Aim to add a layer of mulch 2 to 4 inches deep.

  • Winter: Mulch around perennial plants to help keep them insulated.

  • Spring: Wait until the ground has thawed. Depending on the thickness, add between 1 and 4 inches of mulch to provide freeze and rain protection and enrich the soil.

You can fill the holes weeds leave behind with soil or sand to avoid unsightly spots or tripping hazards. If you remove weeds from a grassy area, fill the hole with soil and grass seed, and water regularly to promote grass growth.
