"The work was outstanding from beginning to end. Pierce is upfront and transparent about the process. We had a very tough backyard to renovate with a lot of rocks and tough terrain. Cody and his team put in a sweet split rail fence that is perfect to fence in a new puppy. They also flattened out my backyard, applied topsoil and seed and added river rocks beneath my deck area. It is totally transformed. Cody and his team were friendly, punctual, and work very quickly. This is the second big job that Pierce has done for us and the work and people are outstanding. I highly recommend these guys for any landscaping project you need, big or small."

"We recently had a fall clean up for our yard completed by CMG Landscaping. We initially called the office, and were warmly greeted by Cori, the Office Manager, for pricing and availability as we wished to have the job completed in early October. Cori was very professional, extremely helpful, and her polite and friendly manner over the phone convinced us that we would choose CMG Landscaping for this service. She displayed such a positive attitude, communicated clearly and effectively, and went "above and beyond" to make us, the customers, feel valued and informed. When the crew showed up to perform the fall cleanup, they were very professional, hardworking, friendly, and on time. We were extremely satisfied with the results! We highly recommend CMG Landscaping for any of your landscape maintenance or design needs."

"John and his team completed two major projects for my husband and I. We redid our back patio (about 6 years ago) which included substantially expanding its size, building a new stone wall, and all new hardscape and landscaping. Several years later the patio still looks beautiful and the landscaping has filled in. Family and friends often ask who completed the work and we are happy to share Plymouth Nursery! We have been so pleased with how it turned out. This past summer we rehired Plymouth Nursery and Landscape to complete our front walkway. John came right out to give us a price. The job was priced very competitively. Work was done in a timely matter and once again done beautifully and to our satisfaction. Highly recommend Plymouth Nursery for your landscape and hardscaping needs!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

If you like the look of mulch in your plant beds, be aware that it can attract a variety of pests, including termites. To avoid wood-to-foundation contact, leave a one-foot barrier around your house and fill it in with rocks or gravel, starting mulch past that barrier and working it outward into your plant beds. 

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on several factors. On the lower end, common types like red and black mulch cost about $35 to $40 per cubic yard and are often made from recycled wood. More premium options like cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch can cost between $100 and $120 per cubic yard. The total cost is also influenced by delivery, which can be around $75 per cubic yard, though many companies provide a free estimate. It is generally cheaper to buy mulch in bulk and have it delivered, but buying it in bags may be more cost-effective for smaller areas. Other factors like the quantity you need, time of year, your geographical location, and professional installation will also affect the final price. Before getting quotes, it's a good idea to calculate how much mulch you need. A professional can help you determine the most suitable type for your landscaping needs.

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.

Gravel’s biggest pro is its cost-effectiveness. For example, a gravel road or driveway is much more affordable than its asphalt counterpart. Gravel is also much less expensive than the cost of pouring a concrete slab if you’re building a patio or similar structure.

However, regarding comfort and convenience, gravel is far less foot-friendly than smoother substances like concrete or asphalt. It’s also more of a challenge to drive on and may kick up dust, resulting in the inevitable need for extra car washes. Lastly, there’s a chance it might move with rain or snow.

The landscaping elements that add the most value are often the basics. A well-maintained, attractive lawn can have a return on investment (ROI) of up to 217%. Routine lawn maintenance, such as edging and mulching, can provide an ROI of over 100%. Other high-value projects include upgrading your front walkway, which can offer a 100% ROI, and planting trees. Projects like adding decks, patios, outdoor lighting, irrigation systems, fire pits, and outdoor kitchens also add value and enjoyment, though their direct financial ROI may be less than 100% in some cases.
