How much is a yard of crushed concrete?

• <div><p>A yard of crushed concrete costs between $20 and $50. A single-car driveway will need 1.5 to 2.5 yards of crushed concrete, putting your material costs between $30 and $125, which is much less than you’ll pay for most <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-pave-driveway.htm">driveway paving methods</a>. Your total could vary based on the thickness you’re going for, and, of course, total prices will increase with added square footage for driveways that fit multiple cars. </p></div>

Do you have to be careful when putting landscaping over a leach field or drain field?

• <div><p>You should exercise care when deciding <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/landscaping-around-your-septic-system.htm">how to landscape over a leach field</a> for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.</p></div>

Q: What costs are generally involved in lakefront landscaping?

• <div><p>Costs for lakefront landscaping are influenced by project size, choice of plants and materials, labor, and any additional features or structures desired. Projects can range from a few thousand dollars to extensive transformations costing much more.</p></div>

Q: What wood is bad for mulch?

• <div><p>Wood from black walnut, magnolia, eucalyptus, red maple, and invasive species like tree of heaven are not recommended for mulching. These trees release allelochemicals that can suppress plant growth. Some homeowners, however, use wood from these trees for mulching if it is less potent due to age or concentration, or if the plants are not as sensitive to them.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to compact crushed stone or gravel?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re using crushed stone or gravel as a base material, then yes, you should compact it to prevent movement of the top layers. For instance, if you don&rsquo;t compact crushed stone or gravel and you lay pavers on top of them, the pavers will shift over time. However, if you&rsquo;re using gravel or crushed stone as a top layer for aesthetic purposes, you might not want to compact the materials.</p></div>
