"I purchased a deal through Angie's List for 5 square yards of mulch delivered and spread. I contacted Del Rio's and left a message after hours. The next day Ramon called me back and we worked to schedule a time for the deliver of the mulch. My schedule is challenging, and Ramon was very patient. He worked my schedule even though I live outside of their regular service area. Ramon and his crew delivered the mulch on a Saturday morning. They spread the mulch thick and with great care. Now my plants visually pop out of the landscaping and the beds look clean. I know the mulch helps keep the moisture in the soil. I do wish I lived in Del Rio's regular service area. Their customer service was wonderful."

"We worked closely with Dean on the entire project from our initial meeting, to hardscape and landscape designs and installation. During the project he was onsite every day and was highly communicative. We trusted Dean so my wife and I felt comfortable being out of town during the project. Dean was highly communicative with daily updates, pictures and videos. He went above and beyond on everything from finding us rare plantings and making sure the neighbors had any questions answered. The project was for the back yard, but since he had extra premium mulch he instructed his team to install it throughout the front of the house. As mentioned, we were away for the project so he bought us and set-up sprinklers, hoses and timers so everything was well watered. This organization has been great to work with and we can't wait to do the front of the house with D&D!"

"Wonderful crew. They did an awesome job of cleaning up all the dead limbs from two 30-40 foot trees and hauled away everything. They then mulched the area under the trees per request and edged the entire area. I highly recommend them."

"The project that Trojan Landscaping did on my yard was amazing. Final product was so worth the money. I got a chance to talk with the owner and he was a very stand up guy he did everything he said he was going to do and I appreciate that. His crew showed up on time and got straight to work no hesitation. Over all it was a 10/10 and would definitely recommend you use Trojan Landscaping for all your outdoor needs!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put soil on top of existing grass to level small areas. This is helpful for filling in small divots or leveling out minor dips in your yard that collect rainwater. However, this isn’t a good option if you need to regrade your entire lawn. It’s better to have a professional excavate some of the dirt first so that the level of the lawn doesn’t rise too high.

Using sand under stepping stones can be beneficial in certain situations. Sand can help level the ground and provide stability for the stepping stones, especially if the ground is uneven. It also allows for minor adjustments during the installation process. However, sand may not be the best choice for all environments. In areas with high foot traffic or heavy rain, sand may wash away or become displaced, leading to an uneven surface. In such cases, a more stable base material like gravel or crushed stone is preferable. Consider your specific landscape conditions before deciding whether to use sand under stepping stones.

If a big freeze catches you by surprise and you don’t have any deicer to hand, you can reduce the chance of taking a tumble by laying gritty, anti-slip materials. Some natural, readily-available options that don’t melt ice but offer traction underfoot include sand, wood shavings, kitty litter, and fireplace ash.

Determining how many boulders you’ll need for your landscaping project depends on the area you need to cover and how big each boulder is. First, you’ll need to determine how big of an area you want covered, then divide that by the base surface area of the boulders. A landscape professional can help you determine how many boulders will be right for your project.

Depending on the size of the river rock and the density of your soil, add woven landscape fabric or sand under river rock. The extra layer will ensure your river rock sits evenly and doesn't create puddles or uneven areas throughout the design. In some cases, nothing is necessary beneath river rock, but be sure to speak with a landscaper to keep your landscaping looking sharp.
