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

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.

Hardscaping often requires preparation of the ground in the area where the feature is being installed. This can include digging, compacting, and leveling the soil, ensuring adequate drainage, and removing any existing plants. The extent of preparation needed will depend on the type and size of the hardscaping feature being installed.

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.

Determine whether you have any other heavy, bulky, or oddly-shaped items you’d like to relocate, such as a washing machine or other appliance. Since many professional moving companies may charge minimum fees for their services, you could end up paying the same cost to move a refrigerator as you would to move the fridge and a second or third item.
