Question 1

How often should I mulch?

Accepted Answer

We recommend applying fresh mulch once per year to keep a consistent layer that's 2 to 4 inches deep for best results.

Question 2

Do I need to remove the old mulch?

Accepted Answer

You'll only need to remove existing mulch if it's become too thick. In most cases, you can simply break up the old layer and add fresh mulch directly on top.

Question 3

How do I calculate how much mulch/soil I need?

Accepted Answer

Start by measuring your coverage area and selecting your preferred depth - usually 3 inches works well. Then use those numbers to figure out how many cubic yards you'll need for your project.

Question 4

What is the difference between topsoil and fill dirt?

Accepted Answer

Topsoil comes from the surface layer and contains rich organic materials that make it perfect for gardens and landscaping. Fill dirt consists of deeper subsoil that's mainly used for leveling ground or filling in low spots.

Question 5

When should I install topsoil?

Accepted Answer

Spring provides the best conditions for topsoil installation and ground preparation, though you can have it installed any time the soil isn't frozen solid.

Question 6

Do you deliver in bulk or bags?

Accepted Answer

We provide bulk delivery services like most landscape material suppliers. Our products are measured and priced by the cubic yard for your convenience.

Question 7

Do I need to be home for service?

Accepted Answer

You don't need to be present during delivery or service as long as we can easily reach the area where you want the materials placed in your yard.

Question 8

How do you handle rain days?

Accepted Answer

When weather conditions aren't suitable, we'll move your service to the next available clear day so we can complete the work under proper conditions.
