Choose the Right Mulch for Your Landscape
Different mulch types offer different benefits. We’ll help you choose the best option for your landscape style and plant needs.
Hardwood Mulch (Brown)
Classic, natural appearance. Most popular choice. Breaks down to enrich soil. Lasts 12-18 months. Affordable and attractive.
Hardwood Mulch (Red/Dark)
Rich color that makes plants pop. Fades slower than natural brown. Modern look. Lasts 12-18 months.
Cedar Mulch
Natural insect-repelling properties. Pleasant aroma. Lighter weight. Slower decomposition means longer life. Premium option.
Pine Bark Mulch
Large nuggets for textured look. Excellent for slopes (doesn’t wash away easily). Long-lasting. Good for acid-loving plants.
Pine Straw
Natural, rustic appearance. Excellent for slopes. Easy to spread around established plants. Annual replacement recommended.
Rock or Stone Mulch
Permanent solution—never needs replacing. Modern aesthetic. Best for low-maintenance landscapes. Various colors and sizes available.

Professional Bed Edging Creates Definition
Edging is what separates amateur landscaping from professional results. Clean edges define spaces, prevent grass intrusion, and make maintenance easier.
Our Edging Process:
Cut clean, defined edges along all beds using professional edging tools. Create consistent depth and width for uniform appearance.
Edging Styles:
– Natural Cut Edge – Clean cut line without materials (most popular)
– Metal Edging – Permanent steel or aluminum borders
– Stone Edging – Decorative rock or brick borders
– Plastic Edging – Economical permanent borders
Maintenance:
Edges should be re-cut annually to maintain definition. We can include edging in mulch refresh service for comprehensive bed maintenance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Proper mulch depth is 2-4 inches. We’ll measure your beds and calculate the right amount. Most properties need 5-15 cubic yards depending on bed size.
Usually not necessary—we spread fresh mulch over existing (if depth isn’t excessive). If old mulch is severely compacted or decomposed, we’ll remove it first.
Spring (March-May) is most popular for fresh appearance. Fall mulching protects plants through winter. We mulch year-round based on your preference.
Quality mulch placed properly doesn’t increase termite risk. Keep mulch 2-3 inches away from house siding and foundations. Cedar mulch naturally repels insects.
Costs vary based on bed size and mulch type. Most residential properties range from $400-1,200 for annual mulching. Contact us for a free quote based on your property.
