Our Sandusky, OH lawn and landscape maintenance company offers mulch installation services to help prevent soil erosion, insulate soil and plant roots, and make your landscape beds look fresh.
One of the most important components of installing or renovating your landscaping is to put down a proper amount of ground cover. Besides the aesthetic appeal, mulch protects your soil, along with many other benefits.
Our landscaping company installs and replenishes mulch in planting and landscape beds across the areas of Sandusky, Huron, Vermilion, and more Ohio cities.
Throughout our service areas, there are many popular mulches homeowners choose for their landscaping. Some mulches we commonly install include:
When mulch is properly installed, it provides many benefits to your landscape plants, roots, and soil. About 2-3 inches of mulch should be applied. This helps to prevent soil from eroding away in rainwater or snowmelt, which is a big consideration when you've spent money to fertilize the soil in your landscape beds.
Mulching can also keep your soil insulated. This is especially important when the weather is shifting from winter to spring—an extreme temperature change can cause plants to come out of dormancy too early and then be hit by the last frost of the year. When the soil and roots are insulated, it takes longer for plants to activate and begin growing.
Another benefit of mulch is that it provides a natural weed barrier. When enough mulch is applied, then it blocks weeds from being able to access air, water, and light. Weeds can be harmful to your landscape plants, so keeping them under the mulch is a good strategy.
Organic mulch, such as wood, also adds more nutrients to the soil as it decomposes, benefiting your landscape plants even more.
To obtain the maximum benefits of mulch, it's recommended to replenish mulch annually. This ensures your landscape beds will have the correct amount of mulch and will be protected. Throughout the year, mulch may begin to decompose or get washed away in rainwater. We will maintain and replenish mulch for you so you don't have to worry about adding another item to your task list. We can install mulch for new landscaping projects as well as mulch replenishment.
Professional mulch installation is a great way to make sure your landscaping is fully protected and insulated. We can come to your home, install the mulch, and replenish it for you too.
