Edmonds Mulch & Bark Installation Services

Welcome to the transformative world of mulch! A well-placed layer of mulch doesn’t just look great; it blocks weeds, retains moisture, and protects your plants’ roots. Plus, it adds a polished finish to your garden beds, making them the envy of the neighborhood.


What’s the Problem?

Are you facing any of these garden dilemmas?

  • Compacted soil that’s a magnet for weeds?
  • Faded or sliding bark in your garden beds?
  • Beds that turn into a dry desert in summer and a mucky swamp in winter?
  • Undefined edges where mulch merges with your lawn?
  • That dreaded “volcano mulching” that suffocates tree trunks?

If you can relate, don’t worry—we’ve got the perfect solution!


Our Annual Maintenance Plan: Your Yard’s Best Friend

Here’s how we keep your landscape looking fabulous and functioning beautifully:

  • Edge & Define: We create sharp, clean edges to keep mulch in place and looking tidy.
  • Weed Pass: We hand-pull those pesky weeds and use pre-emergent solutions where necessary.
  • Perfect Depth: We apply mulch at a depth of 2–3 inches—just enough to protect without burying crowns or trunks.
  • Irrigation Tune-Up: After mulching, we adjust your drip lines and timers to ensure everything stays hydrated and happy.
  • Slope Control: For hilly areas, we use techniques like pinning or terracing to keep that mulch right where it belongs.

Our goal? To provide you with low-maintenance solutions that let you enjoy your garden without constant worry.


Service Cadences: Choose What Works for You

  • Quarterly: Spring and fall deep clean, plus two tune-ups to keep everything in check.
  • Bi-Monthly: Ideal for most Edmonds gardens, ensuring your outdoor space remains pristine and well-maintained.

What Annual Maintenance Includes

When you choose our services, here’s what you’ll receive:

  • Comprehensive Bed Prep: Raking out debris and creating a crisp 4” cut-edge or installing steel edging for durability.
  • Expert Mulch Installation: Choose from a variety of options, including hemlock, fir bark, arbor chips, or compost cap, tailored to your garden’s needs.
  • Regular Depth Checks: We’ll keep an eye on that mulch, providing spot top-ups throughout the year to maintain that fresh look.
  • Hardscape Cleanup: We ensure walkways and driveways are free of slippery bark.
  • Plant Health Scans: Quick checks for any plant issues, along with easy-to-follow next steps.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Investing in mulch and bark installation offers numerous benefits:

  • Fewer Weeds: Mulch blocks sunlight, preventing pesky weed seeds from sprouting.
  • Lower Water Usage: It reduces evaporation and keeps soil temperatures stable.
  • Healthier Roots: Mulch keeps roots cool in the summer and insulated in the winter.
  • Curb Appeal: Uniform color and neat edges instantly elevate your home’s exterior.
  • Erosion Prevention: Crucial for those charming, hilly Edmonds properties.
