"If you want the job done right...look elsewhere. Jay and his team seem incompetent and inexperienced. I paid nearly $8000 for a sprinkler and sod installation. My only request was open communication and knowledge on how the handle the lawn/sprinkler after the installation. What I received was false promises and mostly dead sod. The first red flag was when pallets of sod sat in my yard for days until installed. They even had someone come to water the uninstalled sod, but unfortunately that didn't help. The sod they laid was brown. I was assured and told "give it time." The lawn got worse. I paid for a full lawn and received barely half. On top of this headache I found out that they outsourced for the sprinkler system. I'm sure this is a common practice. However, I only heard this when the other company threatened to put a lean on my house since they never received payment from Scapabilities. This sincerely made me doubt the credibility of this company. I never heard from the Jay past the end of the summer and into the fall/winter. I sent several emails asking for updates. Once spring came around I informed them I would be sharing my experience is they were willing to fix the job they failed at completing. I was informed that sure enough the job would be completed to a satisfactory result. They sent a team over to rip up the dead sod and said they would soon would replace it. After that they never returned and ignored all calls and emails. Here I am with a lawn full of dirt/weeds in the back. No sign of the sod that would supposedly "come around with time." I'm tired of a dead lawn that I paid for. I'm tired of the run around. I just want what I paid (and most likely over paid) for. I will be willing to increase my rating if this company decides to actually finish the job, but I doubt they ever will. Until then I recommend you choose a more reputable, credible, experienced and all around more professional company."

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.
