Mulching & Bed Maintenance

Why Mulch Matters

Mulch does a lot more than you might think. It is one of the simplest and most effective things you can do to improve your landscape. Here is what good mulching provides.

• •Weed Control: A thick layer of mulch blocks sunlight and prevents most weeds from growing
• •Moisture Retention: Mulch keeps soil moist longer, reducing how often you need to water
• •Temperature Regulation: Protects plant roots from extreme heat and cold
• •Soil Improvement: Organic mulch breaks down over time, adding nutrients to the soil
• •Erosion Prevention: Keeps soil in place during heavy rain
• •Professional Appearance: Clean, fresh mulch makes your entire property look well maintained

Choosing the Right Mulch

We offer several types of mulch to match your style and needs. Hardwood mulch is popular for its rich color and natural look. Pine bark nuggets last longer and resist washing away. Cypress mulch is naturally pest-resistant. We can help you choose the right type for your landscape and budget.

We do not just dump mulch and walk away. We prepare your beds first by removing weeds, edging borders, and clearing old mulch if needed. Then we apply fresh mulch at the proper depth, usually 2-3 inches. Too little and you will not get the benefits. Too much and you can harm your plants. We get it right every time.

Complete Garden Bed Maintenance

Mulching is just one part of keeping your garden beds healthy. We also provide ongoing bed maintenance including weeding, pruning, edging, and plant health checks. Regular maintenance keeps your beds looking great and prevents small problems from becoming big ones.

Many of our clients pair mulching with our tree and shrub care services for complete landscape health. We can also coordinate mulching with lawn care visits to keep your entire property maintained on a regular schedule. This makes it easy for you to have a beautiful landscape without doing the work yourself.
