"In 2019, much to my chagrin, I had a leaky 70 year old underground oil tank removed from my property. That part of the job was handled perfectly. Matt put together a stellar report to which I got an immediate response from NJ DEP that they could not process b/c there was no money in the fund. 5 years later, April 2024, my name came up, and the grant was approved "based on its technical merit." Matt was right there, helping me through my questions and reassuring me, since I was aware it could be a nightmare. Coreen gave me a date and explained what to expect, and true to her word, the team arrived right on schedule. Brad handled the machine and did an expert job excavating perfectly since it was so close to the house. Diane, the chemist, explained what the process is, and kept me informed throughout the day. Scott helped me schedule and remove another tank by my garage. Ben and Eric were on hand too. The team was efficient, professional, kind, and thorough, and wasted NO time, and took the utmost care to protect my property. This team is so skilled and experienced, I was completely reassured. It was completed in minimal time and according to budget. I could not have been in better hands, and I am incredibly relieved to have this all behind me! Thank you team Applied, I highly, highly recommend!"

Contact us today. www.almstead.com

"High marks for following through and meeting their commitment and doing great work. I had an Almstead arborist review the property and provide recommendations on some dead limbs and trees. We came to an agreement. When the crew came, the arborist wasn't there (later found out she'd left and moved north). As far as I could tell, the crew didn't have the instructions we'd agreed on and they did some, not all of the work. What followed was back and forth, but after a few months they sent out the crew to remedy the missing work. They did a great job and I was very glad. I appreciate the office staying on it and making it right. I've used them for 24 years and happily look forward to continuing to use them. It's a lot to trust your trees to someone!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Pea gravel can retain some heat, but it generally stays cooler than materials like concrete, asphalt, or stone pavers. Lighter-colored pea gravel reflects more sunlight and tends to stay cooler, while darker-colored gravel can absorb heat and become warmer to the touch.

Among the most common types of gravel are pea gravel, crushed stone, marble chips, jersey shore gravel, and base gravel. Gravel has different densities depending on whether it’s wet or dry or mixed with sand.

The best time to lay mulch depends on the type of mulch and the reason for installing it: 

  • Summer: Adding extra mulch helps soil retain moisture and keeps weeds at bay, allowing plants to thrive. 

  • Fall: Adding mulch helps control weeds and keeps soil and roots warm during the cooler months. Aim to add a layer of mulch 2 to 4 inches deep.

  • Winter: Mulch around perennial plants to help keep them insulated.

  • Spring: Wait until the ground has thawed. Depending on the thickness, add between 1 and 4 inches of mulch to provide freeze and rain protection and enrich the soil.

Generally, you want the soil for your edible plants to have good drainage, organic matter for nutrients, a loose texture (like loam soil), and a balanced pH level. However, the type of plants you're growing will dictate the exact characteristics your soil needs to thrive. For example, brussels sprout prefers more acidic soil, while broccoli prefers more alkaline soil. 

The best soil to put around a house foundation is fill dirt, which is soil that’s specifically designed for covering large areas and filling in holes. Don’t waste money regrading around your foundation with expensive topsoil. Use topsoil only for the last layer of soil, about 5 to 10 inches, so that when you do your foundation planting, your grass and plants will have the nutrients they need to grow.
