Complete Your Outdoor Stone Project

Stone handles the heavy lifting in Colorado Springs. Mulch and soil handle the planting areas on sandy clay loam ground. Combine all three for one delivery.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Avoid ordering stone by the bag from big box stores for anything larger than tiny projects. Bulk delivery is dramatically cheaper per ton and saves dozens of trips hauling heavy bags.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

A good quality stone rake has a flat back for spreading material and sturdy tines for fine grading work. Combination rakes save considerable time switching between tools during installation.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Pull volunteer tree seedlings from stone beds when they are tiny for clean removal. Small roots come out cleanly. Large established roots disturb surrounding material significantly when removed.

The Unique Landscape of Colorado Springs

Stone is a low‑maintenance finish that stays crisp season after season. Colorado Springs heat can dry beds fast, so keeping moisture and clean edges matters. In Colorado Springs, Colorado, stone gives you clean lines and a finish that won’t break down or wash away like organics. Stone stabilizes high-traffic spots, improves drainage, and keeps mud away. 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 clean stone beds?

Blow out leaves and debris, rake to even out shifted material. Pressure washing works for stained decorative stone.

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

How do I prepare the area for stone?

Strip grass, grade the base away from buildings, compact, lay fabric, spread stone. With Colorado Springs's sandy clay loam, base prep matters a lot.

Answer

Is stone safe for kids and pets?

Smooth stone like river rock and pea gravel works fine for play areas. Avoid sharp crushed stone where kids run barefoot. Light colors stay cooler.

Answer

How much stone do I need?

Different sizes, different coverage. Pea-sized gravel goes further per ton than chunky rock. Calculate area, use our sizing tool, add 10%.

Answer

Is stone or mulch better for slopes?

Angular crushed stone is most stable. Shredded mulch also works. Avoid round stone and chunky chips on inclines.

Answer

What stone is best for drainage?

Crushed angular stone in the 1–2 inch range works best. The angular edges interlock while gaps let water through.
