Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Butt landscape edging joints tightly together with no visible gaps between sections. Gaps let stone escape into lawn and allow weeds to enter. Overlapping joints work better than butt joints.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Crushed recycled concrete makes an affordable alternative to natural gravel for base layers and driveways. It compacts well, drains adequately, and costs significantly less than quarried stone products.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Do not skip the gravel base layer under pavers, flagstone, or any hardscape surface. Properly compacted gravel base prevents settling, heaving, and cracked surfaces. It is absolutely not optional.

The Unique Landscape of Detroit

Decorative stone is an easy way to upgrade function and curb appeal. Detroit freeze–thaw and spring rain can beat up beds if materials aren’t refreshed. In Detroit, Michigan, stone is a smart choice for low-maintenance areas, drainage fixes, and high-traffic spots. It’s great for edging, drainage zones, and decorative areas that need to stay put. Base prep and edging keep stone from migrating into the lawn. Pick the right size for the job, from decorative rock to compactable gravel. Delivery keeps the focus on the work, not on loading and unloading bags.

Answer
