Mulching—quite frankly—is one of those landscaping items that is not mandatory; however, when it is installed to a landscape the payoff is noticeable.

Proper mulching can help preserve your business’ property by protecting and enhancing the soil. In addition, it enhances curb appeal, as mulching gives a finished and refined look to a landscape.

Additional benefits are listed below:

• Protects the soil from erosion by preventing water loss during summers
• Helps maintain soil temperature year round
• Reduces amount of watering needed
• Improves fertility and overall health of the soil
• Helps minimize weed growth
• Assists in preventing damage caused by heavy rains; allows you to walkthrough an area when damp without making a mess; helps keep plants and signs clean
• Organic mulches decay over time and are recycled naturally. There’s no need to remove it, simply apply another layer.
• Provides property with a finished look, increasing aesthetics and ultimately, curb appeal

The type of mulch to utilize depends on the individual business’ landscape needs, weather, organic/inorganic preference, depth, etc.—we recommend having a professional visit the property to identify needs.
