100 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...
I completed their online contact form in early February and received a call from Brandon that same day. He came out a couple of days later to give us an estimate on resodding our very small backyard. I received a quote from him by email that afternoon and was very happy with the price so we...
BR Green Organic Lawn CareI originally purchased the Tune Up deal for $69.99. 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....
Aquamax Sprinkler SystemsVic is a very humble person, and does not like to brag on himself. He actually called me to say, he would pick me up and go with me to Home Depot so he could make sure I picked out the right color mulch for my flower beds. If you like the help of an expert to guide you to make the right...
We bought one of the Big Deals. They came out to our home two weeks later and installed the mulch. They did a fantastic job and they were very professional. I would highly recommend them.
Terra Turf LandscapeOur biggest complaint was the loss of several bushes around the foundation due to the way they were removed, cutting off most of the roots. The installation of the piers and the leveling of the house appears to have been performed adequately, although we were told that they could not raise...
All Pro Foundation Repairs IncWe purchased a tree to replace one that died from the recent drought conditions. We asked the tree farm company to recommend a stump griding company. We had used another company and were satisfied with their work, but we have never taken multiple bids. We called the company that the tree...

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. He thought about what we ask and tried very hard to make available samples of materials and adapted to our asks as the process progressed. We had a number of bad weather interruptions (think NOAH) but Matt and crew got back to work when things improved. 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. No job is without its challenges, but even months after the job was completed Matt kept his promises and fixed several minor details that I had deferred but he kept reminding me he needed to make right. That means a lot to me. Pictures are from November- through great Freeze! Now all greened up and dry. Thanks MR. Martin."

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.
