Services provided Tree trimming, tree removal and stump grinding. Grass cutting, trimming, mulching. Local family owned business.

"They met twice with us at our home to share ideas and understand the scope of work we wanted (prior to this we had older shrubs removed). They cultivated the areas, sloped the earth, performed edging and set the plants in potential locations to see if we agreed. A total of 20 shrubs & flowering perentials were then planted with heavy duty barrier cloth utilized. Then Maryland small stones covered the barrier cloth and many outlining areas had topsoil and grass planted. The entire front of our ranch home was done plus one side and all of this was accomplished in one day! The next morning A & L arrived and installed a stone step entrance to our porchs french doorway (a very nice touch). They gave us recommendations for plant care and were very nice people to hire. I recommend them if you are looking for good honest people."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Key considerations include dust control, soil erosion prevention, and protecting local wildlife habitats through sustainable clearing practices.

Sand is a common sublayer for hardscape features like driveways, paver patios, and more. Most projects that involve sand require a 1-inch layer to promote evenness, drainage, and weight distribution. For further drainage, most projects have a 6-inch minimum layer of gravel beneath the sand. 

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.

Artificial turf usually requires some sort of base. If you’re installing the grass over soil, you’ll want to add a weed barrier (weeds can damage your fake grass) and an artificial grass sub-base . Typically, this is a mixture of gravel and sand, like crushed miscellaneous base (CMB) or decomposed granite. If you're placing turf over concrete, you can skip the sub base and use a padded underlayment.

Durable materials suited for climate include aluminum for coastal areas or composite wood in varying environments for durability and minimal upkeep.
