Frequently Asked Questions
How deep should mulch be?
We recommend 2 to 3 inches of mulch for most garden beds. This depth suppresses weeds effectively, retains soil moisture, and insulates plant roots without smothering them. We always keep mulch pulled back a few inches from tree trunks and plant stems to prevent rot.
Do you remove old mulch first?
It depends on the condition. If the existing mulch is thin and well-decomposed, we can install directly on top. If it's built up too thick or is moldy, we'll remove or rake back the old layer first. We'll assess your beds and recommend the best approach during our initial walkthrough.
How long does installation take?
Most residential mulch installations are completed in a single visit, typically within 2 to 4 hours depending on the size of the property and number of beds. Larger projects may require a half day. We'll give you a time estimate when we provide your quote.
Do I need to be home?
Not necessarily. As long as we have access to the areas that need mulching and clear instructions, we can complete the work while you're away. Many of our customers schedule installation during work hours and come home to a beautifully finished landscape.
How do I get started?
Just fill out our contact form or give us a call. We'll schedule a free in-person visit to measure your beds and give you an exact quote. Once you're ready, we'll book your install and take it from there.
What is included in a mulch installation?
We visit your property and quote it in person, confirm your install week, and our crew installs fresh mulch with even coverage and clean edges. You never lift a finger.
How much does mulch installation cost?
It depends on the size of your beds, how deep you want the layer, and the type of mulch. That is why we quote in person: we visit your property, measure, and give you an exact price, free. You can also use our free mulch calculator to see how much you need.
How much mulch do I need?
One cubic yard of mulch covers about 108 square feet at 3 inches deep. Multiply your bed's length by its width, then use our free mulch calculator to get cubic yards for 1 to 4 inches. Three inches is the standard depth for most flower beds.
Which mulch types can you install?
We install hardwood mulch, cedar mulch, black mulch, brown mulch, red mulch and playground mulch, and our colors page also shows dark brown, gold and natural. Your quote includes a recommendation for your landscape.
When should I mulch?
Spring, once the ground has thawed and the beds are cleaned up, is the most popular time to mulch in Minnesota. Many homeowners also add a fresh layer in fall before the freeze. Call (952) 314-4797 and we will schedule your install week.
