"We let our landscaping get overgrown and out of control. Mike came over to take a look and gave us great advice. We decided to move forward and they were here the next week. The crew worked extremely hard and got everything done in one day! I couldn’t believe it. Everything turned out great. We’ll definitely be using them again and will recommend to others!"

"The carpenters with Capo Designs are master craftsmen. I had been told by numerous carpenters that they were not able to make a cabinet door that matched my cabinetry. Well these woodworkers did not hesitate in saying that they could complete my job! The contours of the cabinet door are an EXACT match. They did a beautiful job with matching the type of wood and the stain and finish are a perfect match! They were VERY friendly, competent, and went the extra mile to make sure that I was pleased with the job. I would definitely refer Alex and Francisco for any woodworking job."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

You can choose from various kinds of organic mulch and inorganic mulch. Organic mulch may be in the form of wood chips, pine needles, and compost and eventually decompose. Inorganic mulch, such as gravel, rocks, and landscape fabric, is more durable but doesn’t help the soil.

Yes, but lightweight furniture may be unstable due to the loose, shifting nature of pea gravel. Heavier furniture with wide legs or a sturdy base works best since it distributes weight more evenly and prevents sinking. To improve stability, you can compact the gravel more in seating areas or place furniture on top of a stabilizing mat or paver stones.

The ideal amount of mulch is the square footage of your desired depth in inches divided by 324. Aim to keep your old and/or new mulch at a depth of no more than three or four inches.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

It depends. High-end colored mulch can be fairly costly. However, you'll have to replace less-expensive natural mulches, like pine needles and cedar mulch, more frequently. 

The cost is balanced out somewhat, though, as although you'll have to replace colored mulch less often, you'll have to replenish nutrients in your soil more frequently to make up for the decrease in organic matter and nitrogen from the mulch.
