Mulching Services for Garden Beds & Trees
Fresh mulch is one of the quickest ways to make a yard look cared for. It also holds moisture, suppresses weeds and protects roots through Nova Scotia winters.
Professional mulching across HRM
We start by weeding and re-cutting bed edges, then spread mulch at an even, sensible depth — never piled against tree trunks or siding, which can cause rot and pest problems.
Spring mulching sets beds up for summer; fall mulching adds insulation before the freeze-thaw season.

Frequently asked questions
How often should mulch be replaced?
Most beds need a top-up once a year. Mulch breaks down over time, which actually improves the soil underneath.
How deep should mulch be?
Generally a few centimetres is enough to block weeds and hold moisture. Too much can suffocate roots.
Do you weed before mulching?
Always. Mulching over weeds only hides them for a short time.
