Mulch Mound delivered a yard of pea gravel to us. Delivery was on time, driver was friendly and hit a bullseye on the “tarp target”. We used the pea gravel (which was diameter as specified) to fill several muskrat holes around our pond. I would definitely recommend Mulch Mo...

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Never pour concrete directly on soil without a gravel base layer underneath. Soil movement from freezing, thawing, and moisture changes cracks concrete. A 4 inch gravel base absorbs this movement.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Blend two stone sizes together for more natural looking decorative coverage. Mix 1 inch and 2 inch material at approximately 70/30 ratio for visual interest that mimics natural stone beds.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Compact crushed stone base in 2 inch lifts using a plate compactor for proper density. Thicker layers do not compact properly and settle unevenly under weight over time, causing cracks and shifting.

Stone is a low‑maintenance finish that stays crisp season after season. Birmingham humidity and storms can fuel weeds and washout without good coverage. In Birmingham, Alabama, stone delivery makes it easier to create crisp borders, stable paths, and drainage-friendly zones. Stone keeps areas crisp, helps water move correctly, and looks good long-term. Base prep and edging keep stone from migrating into the lawn. Match the material to the use—pathways, borders, drainage, or a clean decorative finish. Delivery lets you finish the project in one go—no hauling, no repeat trips.

Answer

How do I prepare the area for stone?

Remove grass and debris, grade for drainage, compact soil, lay fabric, then stone. In Birmingham's red clay, proper base prep makes the difference.

Answer

Does stone need to be replaced?

Almost never fully replaced. Stone doesn't decompose. Just add to areas that thin out over years. Very low maintenance.

Answer

Can I put stone directly on grass?

Skip that shortcut. Grass underneath dies but stays lumpy. Remove it, prep the base right, then proceed with fabric and stone.

Answer

Do I need landscape fabric under stone?

Yes, always. It prevents sinking (especially in Birmingham's red clay) and blocks weeds. Commercial-grade fabric lasts; cheap versions don't.

Answer

What's the difference between decorative rock types?

Different rock serves different purposes. Round decorative types look nice but shift. Angular crushed stone stays put better.

Answer

What depth should stone be?

Two inches for looks, three to four for walking, four to six for driving. Birmingham's rainfall makes extra depth worthwhile.

Answer

What if I ordered the wrong stone?

Reach out before delivery—swaps are often possible then. Post-delivery changes are harder. Review your confirmation email immediately.
