Mulching for residential landscapes and commercial landscapes does not just make your garden beds look great—it supports long-term plant health and reduces maintenance needs by protecting soil and retaining essential moisture.

Benefits of Mulch Installation

Mulching is one of the simplest ways to improve both the beauty and sustainability of your outdoor space. Whether you’re refreshing a garden bed or maintaining a large property, professional mulch installation offers lasting benefits that go beyond appearance.

Moisture Retention

Mulch locks in soil moisture, helping plants thrive even through hot North Carolina summers. By reducing evaporation and shielding soil from direct sun, it cuts down on how often you need to water.

Weed Control

A fresh layer of mulch acts as a barrier that reduces weed growth and saves time on upkeep. By blocking light to germinating seeds, it slows new weeds before they emerge. Fewer weeds mean less reliance on herbicides and more nutrients available for your plants.

Temperature Regulation

Mulch installation insulates roots from extreme heat and cold, ensuring stable growing conditions. This buffer helps shallow-rooted shrubs, perennials, and young trees handle rapid temperature swings common in NC.

Enhanced Curb Appeal

Clean, even mulch gives your landscape a finished look that elevates your home’s exterior. Defined bed edges and uniform color create contrast that highlights plants, hardscapes, and entryways.

Our Mulch Installation Process

At DreamScapes, we take a detailed, step-by-step approach to every mulch installation to ensure your landscape looks clean, healthy, and professionally finished:

  • Initial Assessment: We walk the property to confirm bed locations, mulch type, and any special requests, ensuring the plan matches your vision.
  • Old Mulch Removal: We remove old mulch and clear debris to prevent layering issues, pests, and moisture buildup around plant crowns.
  • Bed Edging: We cut sharp, defined edges to give beds a polished appearance and help contain mulch during heavy rain.
  • Soil Prep and Weed Control: We loosen the topsoil and apply weed control as needed, creating a clean, healthy base for the new mulch.
  • Mulch Installation: We spread a premium mulch layer—typically two to three inches thick—for ideal moisture retention, temperature regulation, and weed suppression.
  • Final Groom and Cleanup: We rake and smooth the mulch for a uniform look, blow off walkways and patios, and remove all debris so your property is left spotless.
