Common questions

Rock or mulch: which should I choose?

It's completely up to you and your personal preference. Rock costs more up front but lasts much longer, while mulch needs to be replaced every year.

How often should mulch be refreshed?

Once or twice a year.

Will weeds grow through the rock?

Some weeds are inevitable, even with the highest-quality weed fabric. Good fabric keeps them to a minimum.

Do you use weed fabric under mulch?

No. Mulch breaks down into dirt on top of the fabric, which just gives weeds a new place to grow. We only use weed fabric under rock.

Done pulling weeds every weekend?
