"Lyndon and his team with Bechtel's Lawn Care did a fantastic job. Our project included: leveling our side yard, adding topsoil and sod; laying landscape fabric, border, and stone to a seating area; installing a french drain, water line, and an electrical conduit through a heavily rooted area. His initial quote was accurate and his pricing was fair. His team worked hard all day and completing everything within the same day, thus saving me an additional day of labor costs. His team was also respectful and listened to my requests for landscaping layout. He was punctual and easy to reach leading up to the project. He answered all of my questions promptly and helped us address several issues with our existing yard. Everyone loves our side yard now and we would use him again!"

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

Hydroseeding is a great option for sloped yards, as sod might not root as well. Hydroseeding also traditionally creates sprouts faster than normal seeding—up to a full week faster. Additionally, you can customize your slurry mix with hydroseed, allowing you to create a mixture that will work specifically for your yard’s conditions. 

It’s important to remember that hydroseeded lawns require a lot of water during the first few weeks of installation, which can be time-consuming and costly. Additionally, the installation window tends to be shorter than that of sod and traditional grass. 

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.

Yes, it is possible to add too little mulch. Anything less than 1 inch will likely result in too little coverage around your plants, allowing weeds to grow through and minimizing the positive effects that a deeper bed of mulch would have, like maintaining proper soil moisture and insulating the ground.

Timing is key when determining the best time to hydroseed your lawn. It’s best to hydroseed in the spring or fall due to the already wet conditions of your lawn and the more mild temperatures. 

Your local pro will also offer watering and fertilizer instructions for the months after your application. Make sure you will be available to water it consistently, especially in the first two to three weeks for best results.

Ensure clear delivery pathways, remove obstacles, and prepare to cover surfaces to protect landscaping areas. Coordinating with the provider for an estimated arrival prepares punctuality.
