2. Garden Bed Clean up

The secret to a long-lasting mulch installation is a clean start. Our mulch install includes a full landscape cleanup service with thorough weeding, stick removal, and debris clearing from all your mulch beds. By performing a professional bed cleanup before your mulch installation, we ensure better water absorption and a "curb appeal" look that lasts. If needed, we provide old mulch hauling to ensure your soil stays healthy.

3. Mulch Installation

After cleaning your mulch beds and removing old debris, our pros begin the installation process to boost your home's curb appeal and protect your plants. We focus on even distribution to lock in moisture during our dry Idaho summers and provide a critical insulating layer for root health throughout the winter. To begin this process, we will lay landscape fabric, upon request, and then begin installing mulch of your desired color and material. Our offerings include natural mulch, black mulch, brown mulch, red mulch, and more including organic offerings such as hay or compost.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our colored mulch is made with water-based colorants designed to last for up to two seasons. To keep your landscape looking its best, we recommend refreshing the top with a one-inch layer every couple of years.

  • Yes. The mulch is made in-house from chipped branches and tree products without the use of weed killers or pesticides. The premium mulch is manure-free and made strictly from grass, leaves, and soil aid, making all our products safe for both kids and pets.

  • Mulching is critical in Idaho's high-desert climate to protect your plants from extreme temperature swings. It provides immediate soil moisture retention and weed suppression, which reduces your water bill and weekend weeding chores. Beyond the visual appeal, professional mulching regulates soil temperature and improves the long-term health of your beds.

  • You can choose to provide your own or have our team handle the sourcing and delivery. As a licensed landscaper, we have access to professional-grade materials and wholesale pricing that isn't available to the general public. We pass these savings and higher-quality materials directly to you.

  • If you are buying your own material, we’d recommend a mulch calculator to estimate your needs based on square footage. Generally, we recommend a depth of 3 inches for new beds to ensure proper weed blocking and moisture control.
