"Issac did an amazing job on our yard. He was able to aerate it to plant new grass and mowed bi weekly or whenever needed. He was able to pull up unwanted bushes and haul them off. He also got rid of weeds and mainted them in the flower beds, as well as trimming and shaping any small trees and hedges. We also used them to pick up and spread mulch. This team is very reliable and goes above and beyond to listen and understand the needs and wants of client!"

Customers say: True professional

"Rowan Valley Lawn and Landscape is OUTSTANDING!! Grant was awesome to work with! Friendly, courteous, quick and efficient, professional with excellent communication skills, and truly went above and beyond with work done on a rental property that, sadly, seems to have not been well cared for in quite some time. He took a jungle and turned it back into a yard! There's simply no way to express the level of praise that both Grant and Rowan Valley Lawn and Landscape deserve for the job they did! Absolutely recommend to anyone and everyone who's looking to have a great experience working with a Lawn and Landscape company!"

"I can’t say enough good things about this young, veteran-owned landscaping company. From the moment they showed up, their professionalism, work ethic, and attention to detail were obvious. What I thought would be an overwhelming, all-day job—a massive pile of leaves that had completely taken over my yard—was handled with efficiency and care that truly impressed me. They didn’t just “get it done”—they went above and beyond. Every corner was cleaned, every detail addressed, and they left the property looking better than I expected. It’s rare to find a crew that takes this much pride in their work. If you’re looking for reliable, hardworking professionals who deliver top-tier results, this is the team to call. Supporting a veteran-owned business that operates at this level is an easy decision. Highly recommended—I’ll definitely be using them again."

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

It is generally not recommended to put topsoil over new grass seed. A thick layer can suffocate the seedlings by preventing sunlight, water, and oxygen from reaching them. The seeds only need about a quarter-inch of soil for protection. If you want to protect the seeds, a better alternative is to apply a thin layer of organic matter, such as straw mulch or hay.

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 best way to landscape your front yard on a budget is to invest in hiring a professional for hardscaping—things like upgrading walkways, redoing driveways, and installing partitions around garden beds. You can often do the softscaping yourself—think laying down mulch, caring for your lawn, removing weeds, and planting flowers and shrubs. It’s also almost always worthwhile to pay a professional for routine yard maintenance, as this dramatically improves curb appeal and delivers above 100% ROI in most cases.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

A light layer of mulch can help protect a tree, retain moisture, and keep the soil healthy. However, it’s important to avoid over-mulching or piling the mulch up around the trunk of a tree, a practice notoriously called “volcano mulching.” That piled mulch can increase the chances of rot and disease on the tree trunk as well as overwhelming the soil, which needs access to a certain amount of air. Topped trees have it hard enough: mulch sparingly while they heal.
