"I have my gardens mulched every year and this was the best job ever done. It looks wonderful! The workers arrived on the designated day and were very anxious to please. They did a great job. The neighbors have remarked about noticing the effort these people made and how nice it looks. The mulch was applied several inches deep and will do a great job of controlling weeds throughout the summer. I have already asked them to schedule me for next year."

"The entire experience from 1st consultation, until the job was completed was seamless and very professional. Julio walked through the project with me as I explained what I wanted/needed and he communicated what could and couldn't be done while detailing the why behind his conclusions/suggestions. My landscaping had been neglected for the past few years and it was a heavy lift with hugely overgrown shrubs, out of control vines and super sized weeds that looked like bushes. From consultation, to proposal, scheduling and job completion all done in a 2 week time frame. I will be using Julio and his team for all my future landscape needs."

"I hired Yancey Lawn Service to mow the yard and mulch the flower beds. We agreed on a price and time, but when he arrived he told me he couldn?t do the mulch for another week or two. It?s been two weeks and I have not heard from them. I was excited to use this company and have my yard look great this spring. I?m disappointed they did not deliver."

"Just hired Melecio. Once we agreed on a price, he and his crew immediately dove in to clean up my yard, trim, mulch, and mow. He will be returning in a couple of weeks to start regular mowing. Easy to work with and located near me."

"I hired Baumann's Lawn and Landscape to fix my front lawn. The soil was mostly clay and sand and covered in weeds. They killed and removed all the vegetation, tilled the soil, brought in new topsoil, conditioned/fertilized, and then laid sod. The crew was fast, efficient, polite, and did an amazing job (hopefully this site allows me to upload photos after writing this). The work was done in 3 separate days and took less than 2 weeks from the initial phone call to the finished installation. The price is what you would expect for this level of work and that much sod (sod is not cheap). They're not over-priced but it's not Bob's discount landscaping either. You'll get your money's worth for your project. Baumann's will be my #1 choice for future landscape projects."

"Brian and his crew, they are amazing!! They cleared my dad’s basement, showed up on time, knocked the job out in a timely manner. Professional and reliable, I definitely recommend them to do whatever you need. The list of what they actually do isn’t accurate at all, they do so much more. Stevie Jr."

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to keep dirt around your foundation is to ensure your drainage is working properly and redirecting water well away from the foundation. Soil erosion is one of the most common causes of basement flooding, so it’s important to make sure you’re retaining the soil you replaced after learning how to regrade around the foundation. In addition, your foundation planting can also help prevent erosion. For example, plant roots to help keep soil in place.

Top up your gravel driveway whenever water starts to pool in areas. This is bound to happen over time. You can be proactive and top up your driveway at the start of the warm season, and then check on it throughout the summer, particularly after heavy rainfall. Every few years, you should consider installing a new, clean layer of gravel—and that’s a good opportunity to install a layer of landscaping fabric before doing so.

While they’re popular and have a lot of pros, the cons of river rocks include the following:

  • River rocks don’t break down or provide nutrients to plants. 

  • These stones can get hot and scorch nearby plants. 

  • River stones may heat the surrounding soil to inhospitable temperatures. 

  • Rocks can block rainwater from seeping into the ground if installations are too thick or tightly packed.

Most downsides occur when using river rock as mulch in gardens and flower beds. However, you can still incorporate river rocks into your landscape as long as you use them in the correct ways.

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.

Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding.
