About mulching
Our mulch service includes thorough bed cleanup, edging where needed, and the careful application of high-quality mulch to a recommended depth of about 2 to 3 inches. Our lawn care specialists assess plant needs and sun exposure to choose cedar, hardwood bark, or pine straw options that enhance color and moisture retention. We remove old mulch, refresh or replace worn edging, and finish with a clean, even lay that resists washout during rains. We tailor the service for residential yards, apartment courtyards, and small commercial plots around Athens and nearby cities, aiming for a tidy, natural look that holds up through Georgia seasons. With Chico Landscaping Athens, you get reliable crews, neat equipment, and a focus on lasting curb appeal.
