"The work went very well. We've used other tree services previously and they did good work. What distinguished Limbwalker from the others we used was their arboriculture knowledge and landscape aesthetic. We worked with Stephan Zimmerman to determine the scope of work, with his expertise leading the way. The removal and pruning crew, Dave, King and Mikey, were efficient, careful, professional and personable. The second crew that removed the stumps was equally professional and efficient. Both crews left the areas in which they worked clean and in good shape."

"Here is a copy of my termination letter of their services: Dear Trugreen, Please cancel all of my Truegreen Services, Lawn and Insect. I recently submitted a complaint for substandard Lawn service on your internet site and also left a phone message at the local branch for *********, General Manager, asking if he could take a look at my lawn and discuss with him the condition. I didn’t receive any communication from him or the local office. This leads me to believe that there is a bigger failure at the local office than just the lawn techs doing a substandard service. So in summary, with the ongoing condition of my lawn after 1 year of Trugreen Lawn service, lack of leadership and customer service from the local office I am requesting cancellation immediately of all Trugreen services."

Mulch and topsoil services FAQs

Mulch costs anywhere from $30 to $150 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. On the inexpensive end, red and black mulch are about $35 to $40 per cubic yard, and are typically made from recycled waste wood like shredded old pallets or deck material. Cedar, cypress, and rubber mulch cost anywhere from $100 to $120 per cubic yard. A pro can help you determine the type of mulch most suitable for your landscaping needs.

Topsoil costs from $12 to $55 per cubic yard, depending on the type you choose. For example, screened black dirt will cost about $15 per cubic yard. Loam (soil composed of sand, silt, and clay) costs about $17 per cubic yard. Standard screened topsoil costs about $20 per cubic yard. The type of topsoil you need depends on your landscaping plans.

Topsoil should go down first. If the topsoil is next to your house, make sure the grade slopes away from the house to keep water from pooling against your foundation and possibly leaking into your basement or crawl space. Don’t cover your decorative landscape mulch with topsoil as that defeats the purpose of laying down the mulch. If you’re trying to create a certain soil composition to improve plant growth, you’ll likely want compost mixed into the topsoil instead of mulch. Over time, any decorative wood mulch will simply decompose under the topsoil.

No, mulch itself does not necessarily attract termites even though it’s usually made of shredded wood. Some types of mulch like cedar or cypress resist termites because they’re toxic or unappetizing to the wood munchers. However, when the mulch is deep enough, say three inches or more, it creates a perfect habitat for insects of all kinds to build nests.

Although it’s not required to lay anything under mulch, it can help to put landscape fabric or plastic weed barrier down and lay mulch on top. The barrier helps keep weeds from growing up through your mulch. It also helps keep rodents and insects from burrowing into the ground underneath.
