Brandon and his crew arrived in the afternoon on 3/7/2016 as planned and they prepared the area for resodding. They placed fresh topsoil and tilled the area and laid the sod and then rolled as described and cleaned everything up great. Looked like no one had been there except we now had grass where before we had dirt. I am extremely happy and would highly recommend them to anyone.

They scheduled me about three weeks out since apparently they are very busy. Once the day came, the people showed up exactly when they said they'd be there and quickly got to work. They wasted no time and worked very hard and efficiently. The "tune up" took about 5 minutes of time. They ran the different zones, marked where the broken heads were, and adjusted the spray of each head that was working. I asked for them to fix the heads, since I had quite a few that had problems, and they graciously obliged. Unfortunately, fixing the heads, a pipe issue, and relocating a sprinkler a bit further away, all of which took about an hour, bumped my price from $69 to about $400. That's fine. I thought it was fair if my sprinkler system was working appropriately. They ran the system one last time and left. Well, the next time I ran the system, one of the heads that was "fixed" cracked at the riser and washed away a bunch of mulch. I contacted the company and was told that I needed a pressure regulator and that it would be an extra $200. This seemed unreasonable since I had already spent so much money to get my system working. I replaced the riser myself with a dollar part from Home Depot, one that is higher quality than what they were using, and the issue is fine now. After talking to another sprinkler system company they said that the "cut off" risers that they use are notoriously known to have problems and to avoid them if at all possible. When an alternate dollar part fixed my issue, I can't trust the company when their solution was a $200 fix.

It is nice to have a man of talent walk with you and help make some of the decisions, or he will suggest a few different ways and you can decide. Pick A, B or C...Multiple Choice. Can having a nice yard be any easier??? I cannot say enough about Vic. If you call me, you will hear the passion in my voice of what this man has done and how he can help you. I have told Vic, that I will pay him to drive from Texas to New Jersey to help me landscape my 2nd home. He asked me to take photos of my 2nd home, send them to him, and he will send computerized pictures back to me with ideas on ways to enhance my home without him being there. How many people do you know that will do that for you? This man was a diamond that I found in the rough.

Our complaints were met with a "That's not in our contract" attitude, which is literally correct, but contradicted what we were told by the salesperson. Be aware that they make no effort to save plants in the way or put dirt back into the holes they dig in the manner it was removed. The good topsoil was put in the bottoms of the holes, and the gummy clay went in last.

We called the company that the tree farm recommended, Chippers Tree Service, and based upon our measurements they gave an immediate quote over the phone that was significantly less expensive than the company we used last year, so we asked to book an appointment and were pleasantly surprised that they were able to come in just a few days. They called Texas811 and made all of the arrangements for the utilities to be marked. They arrived promptly (early in the time frame) on the appointed day and the work was done quickly and efficiently. The crewman asked us to come inspect the hole before he filled it up and he honored our request to loosely fill in the hole (with the dirt, but not the mulch) for safety until the tree company arrives to plant the tree in a couple of weeks since it is near a sidewalk where kids walk to school. I was very comfortable with the crewman and the work was done very well at a great price. We hope we won't lose anymore trees, but if it happens we will definitely use Chippers again.

Mulch And Topsoil Service reviews from real Angi homeowners in Bardwell, TX
Don't believe the slick top-notch image this company tries to present on their website. This is a sub-par mowing company that sends out random mowers in unmarked trucks to mow your yard. Our "guy" came out every week with a beat up lawn mower that doesn't appear to have sharp blades or...

Organic Lawn Top Dressing & Organic Lawn Fertilization. I started this company to offer an organic, safe lawn application that really gets results. Using our specialized spreaders we spread wonderful rich compost to build your soil in your lawn and landscape. Compost improves the structure and texture of the soil enabling it to better retain nutrients, moisture, and air for the stronger, healthier plants. This organic matter feeds the soil microbes that are vital for good diverse soil environment. Compost helps to control diseases and insects that might otherwise overrun a more sterile soil lacking natural checks against their spread. Compost can save lots of money too - reducing costs of replacing sod and plants, use less water, reduce cost of herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers. Results may vary due to turf and soil conditions. Most people see their turf thicken & bare spots fill in. It usually take a few weeks to begin to see results. Gradually compaction lessens and the soil may even feel softer. Watering needs should go down 30%. When we seed at the same time as top dressing we usually have a good stand of grass in 3 weeks. See our videos on Youtube as well.

"Delivery happened very quickly with a phone call to give us a "heads up". They had to back a large trailer up my driveway, which is pretty narrow, and they did an excellent job of it. Well done and very courteous."

"Well we started a year ago just about talking about the project. Matt was very helpful by first listening to our opinions and and making good suggestions at several points during the process.

We are delighted with the arena, and it stood up to the test of heavy rain by draining well so Martin sand and Gravel did the job right.

FAQs for mulch and topsoil service projects in Bardwell, 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.
