Main Benefits

Mulch is a simple and cost effective way to significantly improve the aesthetic of your landscape. Providing both functional and aesthetic benefits, mulch is a popular choice for many homeowners. Mulch has a variety of benefits for your plants. Mulch absorbs a large amount of heat which results in an extended growing season for your plants. Those colorful flowers that you adore, can stick around for a bit longer before winter takes over. Mulch is also very effective at retaining moisture which benefits plants while minimizing the amount of watering required from the homeowner. In addition mulch prevents unwanted plant growth such as weeds or stray grass from popping up in your garden beds. Lastly the main reason people appreciate mulch is for the uniform and polished look it provides, highlighting your plants and garden features.

Installation Process

The mulch installation process starts with clearing out all old debris, such as leaves, sticks, and weeds. If necessary a double layered landscaping fabric is laid across mulch bed to prevent weeds and other unwanted growth to appear from underneath the soon to be laid mulch. Then we lay an even layer of 2.5” to 3” of mulch around the mulch bed, paying extra attention to plants and hand spreading around them. 2.5” to 3” of mulch is the optimal depth to supply its full benefits as stated above. Our team provides an even spread of mulch that ensures a clean finish, ultimately enhancing your home’s aesthetic.

Maintenance and Replacement

Mulch should typically be replaced or refreshed yearly. This refresh can take place at any point in the year, but it’s recommended that it occurs during the spring or fall. All natural mulches decompose over time which is very beneficial for the health of plants. In order to maintain the effectiveness that mulch provides, it is essential to refresh it yearly. Not only is a mulch refresh beneficial for your plants but it will add back that fresh pop of color to your garden beds.

Mulch is worth the investment to benefit plant health, reduce the need for garden maintenance, and overall improve the aesthetic of your outdoor spaces.
