The Starting Point

The client wanted a refresh of the front-yard garden bed. Removing weeds and renewing the mulch would give the existing planting area a tidier seasonal appearance.

Planning the Work

The work focused on refreshing an existing planted bed rather than redesigning the front yard. We worked around its established layout and plants.

What We Did

The crew removed weeds, applied a pre-emergent, and installed black mulch. The visit took about two hours.

What We Used

About 20 bags of black mulch, each 1.5 cubic feet, were purchased for the job—roughly 30 cubic feet in total. A pre-emergent was applied before mulching.

The Result

The bed had a clean, refreshed appearance with fresh black mulch around the existing plants. The treatment was intended to help manage weeds through the season; continued maintenance may still be needed.
