"We had old interlocking pavers that looked like they were just all rising in the middle and were a bit of a hazard. One thing I liked about Kolsen and his guys is they didn?t leave crap all over my yard and cleaned up after themselves, it was a big job for them and going on 18 months it still looks great. Highly recommend."

"Did a great job on several different projects. Very dependable and I would have no issues in hiring again."
Sand and paint steps
Sanded the steps down to bare wood and I filled all holes and cracks up with putty. I then stained the steps to a yellow pine look. That's what the customer wanted. They were very happy with the outcome.
I sanded the greenhouse down to bare wood and then I checked for cracks or holes that needed to be filled in. I then painted the greenhouse a 2 tone color. A tan color for the walls and a green color for the frame of the greenhouse. The project came out great. The customer was very pleased with the outcome.

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Pea gravel is a type of gravel that is generally smaller and rounder than regular gravel. It's usually made from river rock and is available in a wide range of colors. Thanks to its soft, round shape, pea gravel is more comfortable to walk on compared to standard gravel, which can have sharp edges. A drawback of pea gravel is that it can scatter more easily than other gravel types.

When it rains, decomposed granite can become muddy and mushy in texture and start to wash away, leading to erosion of the surface. Decomposed granite’s inability to endure heavy rainfall is one of its biggest drawbacks.

The best mulches for trees are wood chips, bark nuggets, or pine straw. Depending on your goals, you may want to avoid using plastic, stone, rubber, or wet grass clippings. Plastic mulch prevents water from reaching the mulched areas of your tree, stones don’t offer any nutritional benefits to the soil, rubber can release byproducts into the soil when it decomposes, and wet grass clippings can lead to rot. 

Plastic may prove beneficial in cold climates in the winter, but wood chips are the ideal option for most environments.

Mulch is best used in garden beds and yards, not in your driveway as pothole filler. It is meant to stimulate plant growth. Upon repeated pressure, it turns into compost, which also serves as fertilizer for weeds to take over. The roots will then break into your driveway, leading to more material loss and structural collapses.

First, dig a hole that’s the same depth as the root ball and wide enough for the roots to spread out fully. Before placing the tree in the hole, pour water in to help get rid of any air pockets in the soil.

When filling the hole back in, opt for a 1:1 ratio of organic compost with the soil left over from the ground. Do not use potting soil, fertilizer, or chemicals of any kind, as these can stress out and kill your newly planted tree.
