Nothing sharpens up a landscape faster than freshly edged beds and a clean layer of mulch. And mulch is more than cosmetic. At the right depth it suppresses weeds, holds soil moisture through summer, insulates roots through winter, and feeds the soil as it breaks down.
Done wrong, it causes problems. Mulch piled against trunks (the infamous mulch volcano) invites rot and pests, and mulch laid too thick suffocates roots. We install it right: proper depth, pulled back from stems and trunks, over beds that have been cleaned and re-edged first.

How much mulch, and how often?
Beds should carry 2 to 3 inches of mulch. Below 2 inches, weeds punch through. Above 3, water and air struggle to reach roots. Most beds want a refresh once a year as the layer decomposes and fades. Some years a top-up is all it takes instead of a full re-mulch, and we'll tell you which honestly.
Spring mulching after clean-up is the classic timing, locking in moisture ahead of summer. A late-fall application also works well, insulating roots before winter.

Mulching FAQs
Is there a mulching service near me?
Yes. We install mulch for homeowners in all 50 states. Call +1 (844) 226-0632, tell us roughly how many beds you have, and we'll confirm coverage and give you a price.
How deep should mulch be?
2 to 3 inches, consistently. Less lets weeds through, more suffocates roots and sheds water. And it should always be pulled back from trunks and stems. Mulch piled on bark holds moisture against it and invites rot and pests.
How often should mulch be replaced?
Most beds want annual attention. Some years that means a full refresh, other years a thin top-up restores color and depth. We assess what your beds actually need rather than defaulting to the maximum.
Which mulch type should I choose?
Natural hardwood is the all-around choice and feeds soil as it breaks down. Dyed mulches hold color longer. Cedar resists insects and decomposes slowly. We'll show you the options against your home's colors.
Do you remove the old mulch first?
When the old layer is matted, moldy, or already too deep, yes, we remove or break it up first. Blindly piling new over old is how beds end up with 6 inches of root-smothering mulch.
