One of the first things that impressed us is responsive Byron's is. In both cases, Ricardo was able to come out the next day to give us an estimate (including coming out on a Saturday). Then, he was willing to have a crew to come out that day, or the next day to get started. Both times, the work was completed in a couple of days. The second thing that impressed us was that both times, we got much more than we expected. The first time, all beds were mulched thoroughly, and everything was cleaned up beyond our expectations. And in both cases when they have done planting, they have provided many more plants, and in a great variety, than we were expecting for the money. Each time, they left our property neat and clean, delivering a definite wow factor. Finally, we really appreciate that while different crews may do different things (irrigation versus planting, for example), Ricardo always starts and finishes the process, making sure everything is satisfactory.

Laurin Lindsey?s design works with the architecture of the house in ways that I would never have expected. The repeated curved patterns in the house trim, porch, and walkway reappears in the curved beds of shrubs, bushes, and annuals. The design includes a continuation of the curved pattern in the pots that stand on the pedestals at either end of my brick porch. These pots contain little ivies, wispy plants, and annuals. Everything is supported by a brand new irrigation system that enabled the garden to make it through the incredibly hot days of the summer of 2011. Shawn Michael took time to explain the irrigation system to me and made certain that it allowed for future growth. Once I saw my front garden, I began to plan for a larger garden to be installed in the back yard in the spring of 2012. This time, Laurin designed with the cottage garden style in mind. She worked with established plants, such as the roses, ferns, and holly trees, but added additional annuals and perennials. Also, they installed a fountain in the center of my patio and surrounded it with river rocks and lilies. The look is lovely. However, my dogs happily began to dig in this delightful new spot. Laurin and Shawn came up with a solution. Some of the beds are now surrounded by waist high, wrought iron fences that look as if they are straight out of an English garden. I could not be happier with my new gardens. Working with Ravenscourt Landscaping was a delight. I now use their maintenance service and have them come regularly to weed, feed, mulch, and plant new beds with each season. I feel that I got more than my money?s worth. And I smile every time I look at my garden."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/tx/houston/ravenscourt-landscaping-and-design-llc-reviews-7205817.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Jones Topsoil Co","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"TX","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Paul M."},"reviewBody":"Super fast and responsive service during a busy holiday week.

FAQs for mulch and topsoil service projects in Alvin, TX
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.
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 should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.
No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.
Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
