What’s the best way to move the mulch? With a 10-tine pitch fork?
Also, what are u suppose to do with mulch against a building? I know u aren’t suppose to put it bc of insects/termites…so what are u suppose to do if the mulch bed is along the side of a building? Thanks!!!!!
What a shame. Didnt even clean walks. Doesnt matter if they did edging properly or thinned mulch near plants and trees, or any of the other things they should have done, worst offense we can ever do is not do a good job cleaning up. A good job is lost with bad clean up. Just finished 58 yard job today for a house thats going on the market, realtor and homeowner are elated
If I’m doing a residence playground, is it safer / easier to maintain to use chips instead of mulch?
Why sell mulch when you can sell more plants and fill in the garden beds with more plants and or ground covers to the point we’re you don’t need mulch
Hey there Caleb! Hope you are well. I really appreciate the info in the video. It really makes me wonder; with so many professionals that know how to mulch and plant trees properly, how is this still so prevalent? Is it really because time is money, so they just drop it a go? Or all the mulchcanos that you see in road medians. I mean somebody is teaching it. Right?
god thats a bad job
Looks like blowed in
Many customers support the eco friendly hand weeding option.. as part of any strong IPM program.. cultural physical mechanical THEN chemical control options (in that order). Round up should not be thr first thought to control weeds.
I told my young son years ago the correct way to mulch. We were at a new outdoor mall on the first day it opened. My young son said look at this mulch job and started to pull the mulch away from the new trees and shrubs. I turn around and see a news crew filming my son. Along side the news crew was the mall owner, our state governor and our US senator. The governor asked my son if something was wrong. my son looked up to her and said this is not how you mulch.
What chemical do you use for the beds ? Just had a job that I did weeds are already growing back
And what products is good for pre emergent on flower beds ?
Great tips, when you say premium charging. How much a job like would cost to do? Landed a big project and don’t know how much to charge, man hour or job done?
You never talked about one of the most important factors – HOW THICK SHOULD THE MULCH BE PUT DOWN?
I wish my state didn’t require a license for Roundup.
I dig out the edge and use cardboard along it and that seems to keep weeds out for awhile.
So many stains on the sidewalk smh
I’m fairly confident contractor charged premium price for “ok work”. I’ve found a large number of people are ok with ok work … 🤮
Hi. Nice video. I like the suggestion of offering of upselling a "spray & bury" service with a weed preventer. How much would you charge for the service?
I like to bury at least 3 feet of the trunk in a mulch volcano so that in the next few years the tree develops girdling roots then the customer pays again for me to cut down and replant then the mulch starts the whole cycle anew.
