What is the cheapest landscape rock?

• <div><p>The cheapest landscape rock is gravel, pebbles, or decomposed granite. These small rocks are great for affordable driveways and walkways. If you’re looking for larger rocks as a building material, you can get fieldstone affordably, especially if sourced from somewhere in your area. </p></div>

Q: Can landscape boulders crack or break?

• <div><p>Landscape boulders, especially porous stones like sandstone or granite, can crack or break over time. Cracks occur when water seeps into the surface of the stone and freezes. The risk is highest when it rains during the day and temperatures freeze overnight since the moisture has time to penetrate deeper into the rock before expanding. </p></div>

Q: How do I measure how much compost to use?

• <div><p>Most experts recommend a quarter-inch layer of compost for best results, and you will need about .77 cubic yards of material per 1,000 square feet. To measure how much compost to use, take the square footage of your yard and multiply it by .77, then divide that number by 1,000.</p></div>

Q: How long does mulch last?

• <div><p>Replace organic mulch every <b>one to two years</b>, depending on the variety. Wood chips and straw, for example, will last a couple of years, while grass clippings and pine needles need replacing every several months. Inorganic mulch&mdash;such as rock and rubber chips&mdash;can stay in place for up to four years, depending on erosion and general garden upkeep. </p></div>

Q: Which type of mulch lasts the longest?

• <div><p>Nonorganic mulch, like river rocks, pebbles, or lava rock, technically lasts the longest. It helps with moisture retention and weed control but doesn&rsquo;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&rsquo;t provide as many nutrients as quickly as the faster decomposing types.</p></div>

I think my job was too big for him. He may be fine for small jobs. He did not complete the work requested and had required payment up front so he could purchase supplies (mulch & lumber). He left piles of weeds, leaves and branches in random places in the yard instead of removing them from...

Gary was responsive and detailed in his work. He kept me informed of changes to his schedule (weather related) so I could plan accordingly. He even made a second visit when he underestimated the amount of mulch I needed and only charged for the extra material.
