Mulch and Rock Installation in South Haven, IN
Subdivision beds sit in heavier ground that holds water, so edge and mulch depth have to be right.
On a smaller lot the front bed is most of what you see from the street, and in heavier ground it holds moisture, which weeds love. We clean the bed out first, cut a real edge against the turf with a spade or install edging, then lay mulch to an even depth pulled back off trunks and siding so it does not rot the wood. Where a downspout or low spot keeps washing mulch onto the walk, we switch that stretch to river rock over fabric and keep mulch around the plantings. Beds get squared up around the walk and the drive, and the hard surfaces are blown clean before we leave. Black or brown mulch and stone are your call.

Mulch & Rock in South Haven
How often does mulch need to be redone?
Most beds want a refresh once a year to keep the color and depth. Some hold two seasons if they were installed deep and stayed clean.
Can you put rock over an existing mulch bed?
We strip the old mulch out first. Rock over decomposing mulch settles unevenly and weeds come right through.
