"Rick and his crew were awesome. Rick came by for the initial meeting and listened carefully to my needs and wants for the landscaping design. I was amazed at how quickly and efficiently Rick and his crew worked. They arrived early and were done by noon. Throughout the process Rick would check in with me to ensure that the plants were positioned how I wanted. They made sure to keep the property clean of debris. The only problem was that I started the project late in the season and wasn’t able to see some of the plants bloom. I can’t wait for the spring and summer! Thanks to Rick of Powers Landscaping, Inc. for your professionalism. "

"Great. We had two piles of deconstruction debris, and separately bagged old paint, herbicides, pesticides and other stuff we thought might need to be disposed of separately. JTR arrived to site on time, got everything on the truck within half an hour - forty minutes with the bags going on last and they left a pretty clean site. Was a full load. Reasonable price and great service, thanks!"

Mulch and Topsoil questions, answered by experts

Mid to late spring is the best time of year to mulch. If you do it too early in the spring, the mulch could slow down the warming process of the soil and affect how well plants grow. By mid to late spring the temperatures are usually steadying, making it an ideal time to spread mulch.

Shredded hardwood black mulch and red mulch are the two best types of mulch for landscaping purposes. They last a few seasons, look nice in your yard, and are affordable (about $40 or less per cubic yard). Contact your mulch delivery pro to discuss which mulch type works best for your needs.

Nonorganic mulch, like river rocks, pebbles, or lava rock, technically lasts the longest. It helps with moisture retention and weed control but doesn’t break down and release nutrients like organic mulch. Wood mulch decomposes slowly, which can help it last longer than leaf or straw mulch, but it won’t provide as many nutrients as quickly as the faster decomposing types.

Mulch is widely available and affordable. You can find it online or at most local home improvement stores.

As a base, you should use a fertilizer with a 5-5-5 NPK ratio (5% nitrogen, 5% phosphorus, and 5% potassium). You may need a different ratio depending on what your soil is lacking, but a soil test can help determine the perfect amount.
