"Gladys and Luis did a remarkable job with clearing and treating our front and backyard areas. We had a lot of weeds pop up after the recent rains, and wanted a clean look heading into summer. They were able to get us on their schedule by a date I requested, and for a great price. They were friendly, professional, and very communicative. Would definitely recommend them for their services. Our yard looks great!"

"Wonderfully! Dave came over, we discussed my ideas, and he sent over two marvelous workers, Luis and Jesus, to begin clearing out the messy existing yard. From start to finish, it took 3 1/2 days to transform my front yard from a scraggly ensemble of worn-out elements, to a clean, attractive area with variety and contrast. I chose three different rock/pebbles, in three different sizes, graduating in size, color and texture, from sidewalk to in front of the healthy juniper hedge at the front of the house. Despite a slight miscommunication regarding the wish for curves, rather than straight lines, Luis and Jesus corrected the lines, working with me, so the result is not totally rectilinear. They were personable, hard-working and collaborative, and went the extra mile: Luis managed to find smaller sized pebbles, in the same color, for the back area rather than the ones offered to me, and removed a large elm crowding evergreens on the edge of my property., as well as the volunteer in the center. They arrived and worked unobtrusively, and left the property in pristine shape. Dave Peltz, the owner, has chosen his staff very well, and lets them get on with it with minimal interference, which facilitated the smooth and swift progress of the work. Any need to consult with him was done by the workers, by phone. The cherry on top, so to speak, is that Empire's bid came in at almost half the amount of quotes from other Angie A-listers! I'm a happy camper and definitely recommend this company and these workmen."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

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.

The best size rock for your landscaping depends on the design, as different boulders serve different purposes. If you want to group boulders to create a natural-looking cluster, you’ll need a range of sizes. Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

  • Small boulders (smaller than 12 inches across): Best for landscape edging and fire pits 

  • Medium boulders (12–24 inches): Best for retaining walls and water features

  • Large boulders (more than 24 inches): Best as standalone landscaping features, steps, or walkways.

Of course, you can mix and match sizes to create a unique display.

There are two main times of year to apply mulch: mid to late spring and late fall. Spreading mulch in mid to late spring helps protect new seedlings as the soil warms up. It's best to wait until temperatures are steady, as mulching too early in the spring can slow down the soil's warming process and hinder plant growth. Fall mulching is also beneficial, as it insulates the soil and helps regulate its temperature when the first frosts arrive.

The time that it takes to fill in a pool with dirt varies based on the size of the pool and the equipment you have available. Using heavy equipment, like an excavator rather than a shovel, will significantly cut down on the time it takes to complete the project. With the right equipment, it may only take a day or two. However, after the initial filling, the dirt will continue to settle over the following weeks and months. You may need to add more dirt to make the empty area level with the rest of the yard.

The depth of your decomposed granite depends on its intended use, but around 3 to 4 inches is the most common depth. Driveways that need to support a lot of weight should be at a depth of no less than 6 inches. Walkways that won’t see a lot of weight but lots of foot traffic should be built at a depth of 3 to 4 inches, and patios should also be between 3 and 4 inches deep.
