"Two employees that he brought. A wrapped on time. At 10 o'clock by 11: 30, they were by 11 o'clock. They were having to call him to bring him a chainsaw because their equipment didn't have bars on the chainsaw so they couldn't cut. I had a tree down in my yard and it needed it to be cut up. It was a partial tree. They didn't even have the equipment to cut it up. And then, like, I said . Guy was there when the employee called him at 11: 30, and asked for a chainsaw, and he didn't show up with anything until 4: 30. In the afternoon, these guys were out there trying to chop up these trees using a pickaxe. They didn't even have a telephone to call him with. He left them without a phone. They had to use my phone and my daughter's phone to even contact him. And then he rushed me to pay him because he told me not to worry about it until you know everything was done. And he rushed me to pay him. I was out at the grocery store, and I told him I'd be home. He, they told me, you were here. And that's what I'm not. I'll be right there. And then, when I get there, he's standing on my porch waiting on me. I thought you were in the house, and I already told him I wasn't at home. Well, then I go out and I look after they leave because he didn't even give me time to look. They had taken a wreck and a half of my firewood that they weren't supposed to touch. They had chopped up my, uh Rosa Sharon bush, that they weren't supposed to touch. They were supposed to take a pile of brush out of the backyard. They didn't take it, and they were supposed to trim two small trees out over the top of my shed, and those didn't get touched. And when I told him that he argued with me and said, well, they said they did it with a machete. As it was obvious. If you come and look, those trees are still there so I didn't like his attitude. I didn't like the way he treated his employees. They had no way to contact him if and when they had gotten done early, which they couldn't because they didn't have the equipment they needed to do the job with. But he sure wanted my money real quick. "

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

The main benefit of topsoil is that it enriches the soil with nutrients that help your plants and garden grow at a healthy rate. Topsoil improves how well your soil drains water and gives it a more fertile texture, so that not only do you get better planting, but weeding is also much easier.

Costs vary, but you can expect to spend between $1,000 and $4,000 to prepare land for a mobile home or before you build a house. You’ll need to clear enough land for the foundation, which may require leveling or grading, as well as removing trees, stumps, and plants. Don’t forget to plan for permits and fees and the installation of a gas line, water line, and sewer main.

If you hire a professional landscaper, you could expect to pay between $90 and $660 to install three cubic yards of river rock. (That’s based on the average river rock installation cost of $30 to $220 per cubic yard.) However, the exact price depends on the kind of river rock you choose. Crushed limestone and riprap are some of the more affordable options, while boulders and Arizona river rock are pricier.

Pea gravel can retain some heat, but it generally stays cooler than materials like concrete, asphalt, or stone pavers. Lighter-colored pea gravel reflects more sunlight and tends to stay cooler, while darker-colored gravel can absorb heat and become warmer to the touch.

There are a few ways you can reduce the cost of mulch delivery, including the following:

  • Place your order in the winter months for spring delivery

  • Choose a more affordable mulch color

  • Opt for a more affordable type of mulch

  • Place larger orders to get a lower cost per cubic foot

  • Opt to lay your own mulch to save on installation costs

  • Add on other delivery or landscaping services to save on travel costs

  • Prepare a single delivery site in the front of your property, and use a wheelbarrow to move smaller quantities
