"Hired KO in May 2024, started work in September 2024 - by April 2025 work still not completed...Terminated KO in April 2025 KO wanted more money to fix his errors (epoxy everywhere...grimy prints into epoxy everywhere) Have hired new contractors to redo all of KO's work; each has commented his work was below amateur - brought his politics into the workplace, too Made old woman cry - who just wanted the work completed after many extensions and didn't understand why she had to pay more money for his poor work; dismissed old woman's concerns - even stated "old women love me" - Has KO duped others? Again, newly hired contractors examined his work and scoffed. Do Not hire KO - not reliable, poor attitude...and you'll just have to get the work redone - not accredited with the BBB and only other reviews (prior to this) are from the same month/year and in same style. Took $16,000 in 5/24, started 9/24, not done by 4/25 + wanted $9,500 more nearly irredeemably bad work The Brown Family"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mulching any time of year can attract termites, so there’s no added risk in the fall. The important thing to remember is that termites are attracted to rotting wood, so you need to lay a thin enough layer that won’t trap too much moisture and lead to rotting. A layer between 1 and 4 inches thick should provide all the benefits you’re looking for without attracting termites.

If you’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’t compact crushed stone or gravel and you lay pavers on top of them, the pavers will shift over time. However, if you’re using gravel or crushed stone as a top layer for aesthetic purposes, you might not want to compact the materials.

Each bag of mulch includes 2 cubic feet of mulch. And since a cubic yard is about 27 cubic feet of materials, you'll need 14 bags of mulch to have enough to cover a cubic yard. The right amount of mulch for your yard, however, depends on the depth of the mulch, the type of mulch you choose, and your desired look.

Yes, a cubic yard of dirt will fit in most standard-size pickup trucks. However, consider the truck’s payload as well as the truck bed dimensions before loading it up with dirt. Soil can be quite heavy, and if the total weight of a yard of dirt exceeds your truck’s payload capacity, you risk damaging the chassis and suspension.

While they’re popular and have a lot of pros, the cons of river rocks include the following:

  • River rocks don’t break down or provide nutrients to plants. 

  • These stones can get hot and scorch nearby plants. 

  • River stones may heat the surrounding soil to inhospitable temperatures. 

  • Rocks can block rainwater from seeping into the ground if installations are too thick or tightly packed.

Most downsides occur when using river rock as mulch in gardens and flower beds. However, you can still incorporate river rocks into your landscape as long as you use them in the correct ways.
