Overview
Here's the general idea — the specifics get tailored to your yard.
New mulch is the easiest way to make your whole property look refreshed. It suppresses weeds, retains moisture, regulates soil temperature, and gives your beds that polished, cared-for appearance.
We offer cedar, hardwood, and decorative stone options. Cedar is our most popular — it smells great, repels insects, and breaks down slowly. We spread it evenly at 2-3 inches deep and keep it pulled back from trunks to prevent rot.
