What was bare dirt and a patchy lawn is now lush St. Augustine sod, beautiful palms, and a fully planted raised retaining wall bed with colorful plants and fresh mulch. The crew was professional, the work was done right, and the results speak for themselves. Highly recommend!"

"We had a newly planted crepe myrtle that was struggling. I called Andrew and he came over that same day to assess. He was very thorough and professional. The tree was sitting in water due to poor drainage so he lifted the root ball added mulch and new soil and helped me with a watering schedule and how to move forward. He also offered to call in a few weeks to make sure it was recovering. The price was very reasonable and I am happy with the results. I would highly recommend his services"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

A light layer of mulch can help protect a tree, retain moisture, and keep the soil healthy. However, it’s important to avoid over-mulching or piling the mulch up around the trunk of a tree, a practice notoriously called “volcano mulching.” That piled mulch can increase the chances of rot and disease on the tree trunk as well as overwhelming the soil, which needs access to a certain amount of air. Topped trees have it hard enough: mulch sparingly while they heal.

Before you begin landscaping with rocks, put down a weed barrier or landscape fabric to prevent pesky weeds from poking through. 

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

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.

When laying gravel, it's often a good idea to apply a base layer, such as sand or crushed concrete. You may also want to layer a weed-blocking membrane on top of the base layer to prevent weeds and grass from sprouting up in your gravel driveway. Without the appropriate base layer, the gravel you lay may sink into the soil.
