Lynnwood Mulch & Bark Installation Services

Welcome to the vibrant world of mulch! With just a little effort, we can elevate your landscape to new heights. Properly placed mulch not only smothers weeds, but also retains moisture, protects roots, and adds a splash of beauty to your garden beds throughout Lynnwood.


What’s Bugging You?

Are you facing these common garden dilemmas?

  • Weeds taking over your bare, compacted soil?
  • Old bark that has seen better days—faded, patchy, and sliding down slopes?
  • Garden beds that dry out every August, then turn into muddy patches in January?
  • Unclear edges where bark spills into your lawn and hardscape?
  • “Volcano mulching” that suffocates tree trunks and invites pests?

If you’re nodding along, worry no more! We have the perfect solutions just for you.


Our Annual Maintenance Plan: Your Yard’s Best Companion

Our process is both simple and effective:

  • Edge & define your beds, ensuring that your mulch stays put and looks sharp.
  • Kick things off with a weed pass—hand-pulling and a targeted pre-emergent application if necessary.
  • Set the correct depth—usually 2–3 inches—without burying crowns or disturbing tree trunks.
  • Conduct an irrigation tune-up to adjust drip lines and timers post-mulching, ensuring emitters aren’t smothered.
  • Utilize slope control techniques like pinning or terracing to keep bark securely in place on hillsides.

We’re all about low-maintenance solutions! Our goal is to minimize issues between visits, giving you more time to savor your garden.


Service Cadences: Pick What Works for You

Choose a schedule that suits your lifestyle:

  • Quarterly — Spring and fall deep clean with two tune-ups for optimal care.
  • Bi-Monthly — Perfect for most Lynnwood yards, keeping your space tidy and well-maintained.

What’s Included in Your Annual Maintenance

When you sign up for our service, here’s what you can look forward to:

  • Comprehensive bed prep: raking out debris and creating a clean 4” cut-edge or installing steel edging.
  • Expert installation of your chosen mulch—whether it’s hemlock, fir bark, arbor chips, compost cap, or gravel when appropriate.
  • Regular depth checks and spot top-ups throughout the year to maintain that perfect look.
  • Hardscape cleanup to prevent any slippery bark on walkways and driveways.
  • Quick checks for plant health and irrigation, with clear next steps provided.

The Importance of Annual Maintenance

  • Fewer weeds — Mulch blocks light at the soil surface, stopping seed germination in its tracks.
  • Lower water usage — It reduces evaporation and stabilizes soil temperatures.
  • Healthier roots — Keeps roots cool in the summer and insulated during winter.
  • Cleaner aesthetics — A uniform color and sharp edges instantly enhance curb appeal.
  • Erosion prevention — Particularly vital on Lynnwood’s slopes and alley banks.
