Mulch Installation & Bed Edging in Pittsburgh

Mulch FAQs
How much mulch do I need?
+
We recommend 2-3 inches of mulch depth. One cubic yard covers approximately 100 square feet at 3 inches deep. During your estimate, we'll measure your beds and calculate exactly what you need.
When is the best time to mulch?
+
Spring (April-May) is the most popular time to refresh mulch after winter cleanup. Fall mulching helps protect plant roots over winter. We install mulch throughout the growing season.
What type of mulch do you use?
+
We use double-shredded hardwood bark mulch that's free of debris and dyed with non-toxic colorants. Brown and black are most popular, but we also offer natural and playground-safe options.
Do you edge beds before mulching?
+
Yes, bed edging is included with our mulch installation. We cut clean lines between beds and lawn, remove debris, and apply mulch to a consistent depth. For permanent edging, consider our
concrete border installation.
How often should mulch be replaced?
+
Most beds benefit from fresh mulch annually or every other year. Mulch breaks down over time, which is actually good for soil health, but needs replenishing to maintain appearance and weed suppression.
