Seattle Quality Yard Clean-Up & Low-Maintenance Landscaping

Mulch Installation

Neat & Tidy Landscaping provides professional mulch installation in Seattle. We deliver and spread bark mulch, compost, or wood chips to block weeds, retain moisture, and boost curb appeal. Full bed prep included.

Seattle Mulch Installation – Clean Beds, Less Weeds, Better Curb Appeal

Typical Pricing: Small beds start at $250–$400. Larger or full-yard mulch installs range from $600–$2,500+ depending on material and square footage.

Fresh mulch instantly upgrades your yard’s look—but it’s more than just decoration. Done right, mulch blocks weeds, conserves moisture, and protects roots. At Neat & Tidy Landscaping, we provide full-service mulch installation across Seattle—prepping, delivering, and spreading for a clean, lasting finish.

The Problem

  • Weeds Taking Over – Garden beds become high-maintenance without a protective barrier
  • Dry Soil – In summer, beds dry out quickly without mulch to hold moisture
  • Messy, Uneven Beds – Old mulch breaks down and looks patchy
  • Roots Exposed – Trees and shrubs can lose health without coverage
  • DIY Shortcuts – Mulch tossed on top of weeds leads to quick regrowth

The Challenges

  • Seattle’s Wet Winters – Poor drainage can cause mulch to mat or wash away
  • Bed Shape & Access – Narrow or sloped beds need careful installation
  • Material Choice – Bark, compost, and wood chips all perform differently
  • Thickness Matters – Too thin and weeds poke through; too thick and roots suffocate
  • Prepping Properly – Without edging, weeds sneak in along the borders

Our Approach

  1. Bed Preparation – Full weed removal, edging, and debris clearing
  2. Material Selection – Bark mulch, compost, or arborist chips based on your goals
  3. Delivery & Spreading – Even 2–3” layer for optimal weed control and moisture retention
  4. Edge Definition – Crisp hand-edged borders for a professional look
  5. Clean-Up – Paths and surrounding areas blown clean before we leave
  6. Optional Lawn Conversion – Remove turf and replace with mulch for low-maintenance yards

What’s Included

  • Mulch delivery & spreading
  • Bed weeding & prep
  • Smooth, even coverage—no clumps or gaps
  • Edge cleanup & shaping
  • Haul-away of weeds and debris
  • Optional top-offs or full installs
