Overview

A premium take on mulch, sod & grading

Fresh mulch is the cheapest thing you can do to a property, but only if the bed under it is edged, weeded, and the right depth — piled against trunks, mulch does more harm than good. Sod is the fastest, and only works when the grade is right and the soil below it isn't compacted clay. We do all three together: cut and shape the beds, correct the grade so water runs away from your foundation instead of into it, then lay sod or spread mulch over ground that's actually ready for it. It's the difference between a yard that looks good this week and one that still looks good in three years.

This service is a good fit for homeowners and property managers who want a clean, professional result without juggling the details themselves. We handle the prep, the finish work, and the cleanup so the space is ready to enjoy when we're done.

What's Included

Every project covers the essentials

  • Hardwood, black, brown, and red mulch, delivered and spread
  • Beds edged, weeded, and pre-treated before mulching
  • Correct depth around trunks — no mulch volcanoes
  • Sod installation over prepped, amended, and rolled soil
  • Grading and drainage correction away from foundations
  • Topsoil, seed, and straw for larger repair areas
Our Process

Four steps from first call to final walkthrough

01

Measure & Spec

Square footage, yardage, and grade checked on site, then priced by the job instead of the guess.

02

Prep the Ground

Beds edged and weeded, or grade corrected and soil amended, before anything goes down.

03

Install

Mulch spread to depth, or sod laid tight-seamed and rolled, with clean lines against every edge.

04

Water Plan

We leave you a straightforward watering schedule for new sod and seed, and check back on how it's taking.
