Mulching
At Universal Landscaping, we offer expert mulching services to homeowners and businesses in HRM. Mulching is an essential part of maintaining a healthy lawn and garden, as it helps to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and provide essential nutrients to your plants. Our mulching process begins with a thorough assessment of your property’s soil and landscaping needs. We then carefully select the appropriate mulch materials, such as wood chips, bark, or compost, based on your specific needs and preferences. We also take care to apply the mulch to the appropriate depth, ensuring that your plants receive the optimal amount of moisture and nutrients. In addition to its many practical benefits, mulching can also enhance the aesthetic appeal of your property by creating a uniform and polished look. We offer a variety of mulch colors and textures to complement your existing landscaping and provide a cohesive look throughout your property.
- Moisture Retention: Mulch helps to retain moisture in the soil, reducing the need for frequent watering and ensuring that plants have access to the water they need to thrive.
- Weed Suppression: Mulch can help to suppress the growth of weeds, as it creates a barrier between weed seeds and the soil, preventing them from taking root.
- Nutrient Enrichment: Organic mulches, such as bark or compost, can slowly release nutrients into the soil as they decompose, providing a steady supply of nutrients to plants.
- Soil Protection: Mulch acts as a protective layer, preventing soil erosion from wind and rain and protecting the soil from extreme temperatures.
- Disease Prevention: Mulch can help prevent the spread of diseases by keeping soil-borne pathogens away from plants.
Generally we begin in the farthest corner of the property and work toward the front. Back fences are no issue as we can go through the gate or even over it. Next we’ll fire up the blower and start carefully blowing mulch around plants and other obstacles, making sure not to bury them. 2” is the standard application rate however you’re welcome to request a thicker or thinner layer depending on preference.
Once all flowerbeds or desired surfaces are sufficiently and evenly covered we’ll pack up. The final step is pneumatic cleanup by leaf blower. We’ll ensure any edges, driveway, parking lot, walkways, deck, etc. are clear of any dust or debris. Leaving your customer with a neat and tidy, freshly enhanced property.
