"My husband and I are very pleased with our new fence and custom-built gates courtesy of Bergin Property Management. From our initial meeting through the end of the project, Frank and the entire team were professional and courteous. The onsite crew was terrific - on time and respectful of our property. They cleaned up the back yard and made sure we were happy with the end result. Frank called the next day to "thank us for our business!" When was the last time someone did that? I would highly recommend Bergin Property Management, and we plan on using them again."

"We are very happy with the landscaping that was done in the front of our home. It was in poor shape for a long time, so everything needed to be ripped out and replaced. We love the dark mulch that Brian suggested and all of the plants and flowers he picked out for us (I know nothing about flowers so I asked him to give us his recommendations). He was very patient with me through the whole process and didn't mind at all that I asked for input on what should be planted. I would absolutely hire Landscape Impressions again as well as recommend them to my friends."

"Chris and his team did a phenomenal job giving the exterior of my yard a total revamp. Chris was extremely thorough about the whole process. He was a pleasure to work with. I had pavers installed as a walkway, they designed and built my front porch, with flowers, stone and mulch all intertwined in a complete landscaping job. I couldn t be happier. Thank you Chris and your team for your services. I look forward to the upkeep of you maintaining my yard."

Mulch and Topsoil FAQs, answered by experts

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Pea gravel is hands down a top pick for managing landscape drainage.  These small stones allow water to flow through easily by creating natural gaps that promote runoff. Beyond functionality, pea gravel also offers visual versatility. Homeowners will find a range of earthy tones like gray, brown, blue, and even red, making it easy to match with different outdoor styles and plantings.

The least costly way to keep grass from growing is also the most labor-intensive: regular weeding. Pull out grass blades as you see them pop up through the soil in areas where they’re unwanted. Another cost-effective way to keep grass from growing is by spreading a thick layer of mulch on the area as this will suffocate the grass.

You can choose from various kinds of organic mulch and inorganic mulch. Organic mulch may be in the form of wood chips, pine needles, and compost and eventually decompose. Inorganic mulch, such as gravel, rocks, and landscape fabric, is more durable but doesn’t help the soil.

If you’re mulching in the fall, aim to lay down the material right after the first frost, which will vary by climate. Late October and early November are good time ranges to aim for. Try to lay down your mulch after a light rainfall to lock in moisture for root growth through the winter.
