"I hired Bosque Cleaning Service to do yard maintenance and clean up. There was a good amount of work to be done, including removing weeds, leaves, and some various other trash. Their team did an amazing job and was very well priced! They went above and beyond what I was expecting. They were able to get me in last minute right before Thanksgiving. I had so many compliments from guests on how well my yard looked. Definitely recommend and I’ll be using them again in the future!"

"Owner of the company is very responsible and easy to work with. Paul made sure that I was satisfied with the overall work before ending the project and was very professional in all of his meetings with me. In all the work that he does is amazing and I have seen other work and it is all of the great quality. I am an Accounts Receivable Manager and keep very busy so be able to have someone reliable to work with took a lot of stress away from this job. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking to have a job well done."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Top up your gravel driveway whenever water starts to pool in areas. This is bound to happen over time. You can be proactive and top up your driveway at the start of the warm season, and then check on it throughout the summer, particularly after heavy rainfall. Every few years, you should consider installing a new, clean layer of gravel—and that’s a good opportunity to install a layer of landscaping fabric before doing so.

The right depth depends on your intended use for the area. For instance, pea gravel for walkways and patios typically only needs to be about 2 to 3 inches deep. However, driveways and other areas with heavier loads may require 4 to 6 inches for better stability.

Pea gravel is a type of gravel that is generally smaller and rounder than regular gravel. It's usually made from river rock and is available in a wide range of colors. Thanks to its soft, round shape, pea gravel is more comfortable to walk on compared to standard gravel, which can have sharp edges. A drawback of pea gravel is that it can scatter more easily than other gravel types.

Nonorganic mulch, like river rocks, pebbles, or lava rock, technically lasts the longest. It helps with moisture retention and weed control but doesn’t break down and release nutrients like organic mulch. Wood mulch decomposes slowly, which can help it last longer than leaf or straw mulch, but it won’t provide as many nutrients as quickly as the faster decomposing types.

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.
