What's included

Beds refreshed. the right way, once.

We walk the property first, then quote the beds that need it — fresh mulch, cut edges, and plantings that fit the space instead of overcrowding it.

Mulch installation

Fresh mulch laid at the right depth to hold moisture and choke out weeds.

Bed edging

Crisp, cut edges between beds and lawn that hold their line between visits.

Planting

Shrubs, perennials, and seasonal color planted and positioned to fill in properly.

Custom quoted

Every landscaping job is priced to the property after a walkthrough — no flat guesswork.

Why customers call

Beds don't refresh themselves.

Most landscaping requests start with a specific trigger — a home sale, a storm, or beds that just never got planned in the first place.

SELLING SOON

Getting ready to list

Fresh mulch and clean edges are one of the fastest ways to lift curb appeal before photos or a showing.

OVERGROWN

Beds that outgrew the plan

Shrubs and groundcover planted years ago can crowd walkways and windows — we reset the bed instead of just trimming around the problem.

STORM CLEANUP

Damage from wind or heat

Broken branches, bare patches, and washed-out mulch after a storm usually need more than a quick tidy-up.

Common questions

Landscaping and Mulch Installation FAQ.

How much mulch does my property need?

It depends on bed size and depth desired (usually 2–3 inches). We measure the beds during the walkthrough and quote the exact amount, so you're not paying for extra material.

What type of mulch do you use?

We typically install double-shredded hardwood mulch for color retention and weed suppression. If you prefer a different type or color, we can source it.

How often should mulch be refreshed?

Most Newport News properties look best with a refresh once a year, usually in spring. Beds in full sun may need a touch-up sooner as mulch breaks down faster.

Can you fix beds that are already overgrown?

Yes. We'll clear overgrowth, reset the edges, and rebuild the bed before laying new mulch or plantings.

Do you provide the plants, or do I?

Either. We can source shrubs and perennials as part of the quote, or install plants you've already purchased.

Do you remove old mulch before installing new mulch?

For beds with heavy buildup or weed growth, yes — we'll clear the old layer first so new mulch sits at the right depth instead of piling on top of years of breakdown.
