"We have some trees in our backyard that we thought was a part of our property but it turns out it was a part of the churches property behind our house. One of the trees fell after a storm, and the church asked for our assistance to find a good tree service. We called Fortec and they came out and gave an exceptional bid. The church ended up hiring Fortec so they came out to begin work. First, they told us they own their equipment, but they actually rent. They then say they have their own crew, but it turns out they actually hire people off craigslist to complete projects for them. They say they start at 8am, but they wouldn't show up until about 9:30, and actually start work at 10am. Originally this job was supposed to take 2 days, it ended up taking a week. When they cut the trees, they ended up damaging the churches parking lot. Instead of cutting the tree in sections and letting it come down safely, they cut the tree down in one whole piece, which put a huge hole in the churches parking lot. The guy who runs Fortec, Steve, did not at the time tell the church he damaged the parking lot. instead he tried to repair it without anyone noticing with very cheap asphalt. He did not even tell the church he did this, they found out on their own. They tried to tell him the patch job he did was insufficient, but he refused to repair what he did. He told us he was going to come back on the 28th of September to finish, but to this day he hasn't returned. I tried to contact him on the 30th, and he told me he was not coming back because the church was refusing to pay him. He said they wont pay him because of the hole in the parking lot, but the originally tree service wasn't even finished. He is refusing to come back to finish the work. I would not recommend hiring this company, he is not trustworthy at all."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

It depends on the model of your pool. You’ll always have to level the topsoil, but most vinyl-lined pools require an additional 1- to 2-inch layer of sand to protect the liner. This way, when a foot kicks down to the bottom of your pool, it’s not scraping the liner against the hard ground. If your pool isn’t vinyl-lined, you can skip this step or add a layer of another base material, like decomposed granite. Always check your manufacturer’s instructions before you begin.

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.

While organic mulch offers many benefits, it can also attract bugs looking for shelter, food, and water. Insects, rodents, snails, and slugs are often attracted to its decomposing material.

Pea gravel is the most common type of gravel, and it can be made of limestone, granite, basalt, sandstone, and many other types of rock. The strength in gravel comes from the distribution across the stones, so while one rock type may not be particularly strong (like sandstone), the matrix of small rocks that is gravel can become incredibly strong when installed correctly. 

A good driveway should have a solid base layer and a smooth surface layer of gravel. A base layer of larger gravel, around 1 to 2 inches, keeps the foundation stable and helps with drainage. For the top layer, smaller gravel, about 1/4 to 1/2 inches, compacts well and creates an even surface that’s easier to drive on. Using both ensures the driveway stays durable, drains properly, and doesn’t shift over time.
