Questions

Find answers about mulching, hardscaping, and landscape maintenance

What mulch types work best?

In Auburn, GA, we recommend hardwood mulch for most residential beds because it breaks down slowly and retains moisture well in our humid summers. Pine straw works beautifully for acid-loving plants like azaleas and works well in shaded areas. Cypress mulch offers excellent durability if you want something that lasts longer between applications.

How long does hardscaping last?

Quality paver installations we complete typically last fifteen to twenty years or more with proper maintenance. The key is solid base preparation and good drainage—we use industry standards for both. Regular sweeping and occasional resealing keep pavers looking fresh and prevent weed growth between joints.

When should I mulch my beds?

Spring and fall are ideal times for mulching in Auburn. Spring application helps retain moisture as temperatures rise and suppresses early weeds. A fall refresh prepares beds for winter and looks clean heading into the new year. Most properties benefit from refreshing mulch annually.

What's involved in paver installation?

We start with proper site assessment and drainage planning, then excavate to the correct depth. A compacted base layer and sand bed ensure pavers sit level and stable. We set each paver carefully, check for proper slope, and finish with polymeric sand that locks everything in place.

How long do projects typically take?

Mulching projects usually complete in one to two days depending on bed size. Paver installations vary based on square footage but typically take three to seven days. We always provide a timeline estimate before starting and keep you informed of progress.
