Mulch & Rock Provide Erosion Control, Soil Insulation, Block Weeds, and Help with Water Absorption

Mulch and rock, or decorative stone, are a great-looking way to spruce up your landscape beds and other areas where grass won’t grow. People often use them to line paths or for areas around driveways and walkways. But the most important function they serve is not cosmetic.

Mulch and rock installations actually provide several important protections for your soil:

• Erosion Control - Soil covered in mulch or rock is protected from rushing waters during flash floods. Running water can strip away nutrients from topsoil and cause damage to plants. Mulch allows water to trickle through while preventing soil from washing away.
• Soil Insulation - Extreme temperatures can harm plants. A layer of mulch or decorative stone acts as a blanket, insulating the soil and preventing damage. The effect is helpful during both hot and cold weather.
• Weed Blocker - Most weeds emerge after rainfall when warm sunlight shines down. A layer of mulch or rock blocks sunlight from reaching the soil, which helps to prevent weeds from emerging. For best results, a weed barrier can be installed beneath mulch.
• Water Absorption - All plants need sufficient water to survive. Mulch and rock installations allow water to trickle down to the soil where it will be shielded from excess sun. More water will be allowed to absorb into the root systems of your plants before it can be evaporated by the sun.

Mulch Should be Refreshed Once Annually in the Spring

Over time, mulch can begin to decompose or wash away. It’s important to refresh your mulch installation once a year in the spring. We usually perform refreshers in April. If you neglect to have your mulch refreshed, it can lose its helpful qualities. Also, the organized look it provides will be lost if more is not added on a regular basis.

We can install any mulch available in our area, but a few common types are:

• Red Cedar
• Common Browns
• Black Mulch
• Shredded Bark Mulch
• Playground Wood Chips

Rocks and Decorative Stone Should be Refreshed Every Other Year

Rock and decorative stone last about twice as long as mulch. Usually, they are carried away in rain or become buried in the soil. The only way to guarantee that they maintain their clean look and provide maximum protection for your soil is to refresh them every other year.

We can install any type of decorative stone or rocks available in our area. Some common choices include:

• Lava Rocks
• River Rocks
• Oquirrh Gravel
• South Town Cobble
• Pea Gravel
