"Garrett is a pleasure to talk to and is a polite young man. I contracted with Garrett to dig a trench for my septic line, regrade an area where my pond overflows, and hydroseed both areas. Within 30 days, the trench collapsed over a foot deep in several large areas. I let him know immediately and he said to let it finish settling and he would come back the next year. The pond area that he regarded was still holding water too. He told me that he had since bought a laser level and could properly grade it now. The problem is that Garrett wanted to charge me $2000 more! I was disappointed that Garrett would not stand behind his work, so I sought the opinion of several excavators to tell me if this was fair. The overwhelming response was that the trench was not properly compacted in layers while backfilling. I am aware that some settling can be expected, but not to this extreme. I tried working with Garrett and he offered to lower the price. I explained that I am retired and on a fixed income, and that I cannot afford to pay for things twice. I offered to do all of the dirt work myself if he would just reseed, but he would not even agree to that without more money. I like Garrett as a person and wish him well with his business, but this was my experience."

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.
