"I cannot say enough good things about this company! They transformed my yard with beautiful flowers, bushes, and fresh mulch, and the results exceeded my expectations. Every detail was done with care, and my entire yard looks absolutely amazing. The owner, Carey, is one of the kindest, most honest, and hard-worker I have had the pleasure of doing business with. He does exactly what he says he will do, keeps his word, and takes great pride in his work. Those qualities are becoming harder to find, and they made this experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, and truly cares about doing an outstanding job, I highly recommend this company. I am beyond pleased with the results and would not hesitate to hire them again. Thank you for making my yard so beautiful!"

"Jim and his crew were awesome! When Jim came to my home to see what I wanted done and to give me a quote, he was very clear in showing me how he would prune my trees and lilacs. I appreciated understanding how the work would be done. In addition they dug up three lilacs and hauled everything away, including getting all the leaves that were there before doing the work. The trees are leafing out and look beautiful. His price was competitive and he is very personable. I would definitely hire him again!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

The best mulches for trees are wood chips, bark nuggets, or pine straw. Depending on your goals, you may want to avoid using plastic, stone, rubber, or wet grass clippings. Plastic mulch prevents water from reaching the mulched areas of your tree, stones don’t offer any nutritional benefits to the soil, rubber can release byproducts into the soil when it decomposes, and wet grass clippings can lead to rot. 

Plastic may prove beneficial in cold climates in the winter, but wood chips are the ideal option for most environments.

You should exercise care when deciding how to landscape over a leach field for your septic system. You typically want lightweight materials that won’t damage the drain field’s perforated pipes. When adding plants to the area, select plants with shallow roots, such as grass or flower gardens. Trees with deep roots could damage the pipes in the field.

You should add 1 to 4 inches of mulch, depending on your garden type and needs. Keep in mind that no amount of mulch can completely prevent weeds, but a heavier coverage (closer to 4 inches) can suppress weeds enough that you are only seeing them sprout every few weeks. Finer mulch prevents weeds more effectively than large mulch, so if you’re using mulched leaves or shredded bark, 1 to 2 inches will likely suffice, while 3 to 4 inches is best for larger mulch, like bark chips or straw.

Yes, you can lay pea gravel directly on the dirt. First, dig a trench 2 to 6 inches deep the length and width of the area you want to cover. Plants and weeds will eventually grow through the pea gravel if you don’t lay down landscaping cloth.

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.
