Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

At a 2 to 3 inch install depth, one cubic yard of rock covers roughly 162 square feet at the low end of that range. Measure your bed length and width, decide on 2 or 3 inches based on how much weed and erosion resistance you want, then order in full cubic yard increments since this is not a material you want to run short on mid job.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.
Most rock jobs in Fulshear start with landscape fabric to keep the clay soil from working its way up through the stone over time. Steel or aluminum edging holds a clean line against St. Augustine lawns, which are the norm in most subdivisions here. If you have planting beds mixed in, keep a mulch zone separate since rock and root systems that want organic matter do not mix well long term.
Service area
Lay landscape fabric before you spread rock, but overlap the seams by at least 6 inches and pin them down well. Fulshear's clay loam expands and contracts with the rain cycles here, and loose fabric seams let soil push through within a year or two, which means weeds growing right through your new rock bed. A stapled, overlapped fabric layer is what actually makes this a one time install instead of a two year redo.
The biggest mistake we see locally is people installing rock too thin to save material, then wondering why weeds come through by summer. Stick to the full 2 to 3 inch depth across the whole bed, not just the visible edges. Thin spots are where fabric shows and where grass and clay soil find their way up first, usually right along the border closest to the lawn.
Rock does not feed your soil or break down like mulch, so keep it out of beds with perennials or anything that wants organic matter added yearly. It works best as a permanent groundcover near foundations, walkways, and downspouts, areas where you want zero maintenance rather than a living planting bed. Pair it with mulch in the actual plant beds and save rock for the utility zones of the yard.
Fulshear's clay loam holds water after storms, and a lot of new construction lots here have poor drainage right along the foundation. Landscape rock over fabric gives you a permanent surface that will not float away or turn to mud the way mulch can in a wet spring. It is a common choice around downspouts and foundation lines in the newer subdivisions going up around town, where builders left minimal topsoil to work with. It also holds up through the long Zone 9a summers without breaking down like organic material does.
Landscape rock is stone chosen for how it looks as much as what it does. River rock is smooth and rounded, decomposed granite is fine and packs firm underfoot. Both are sold by the cubic yard for beds, borders, paths, and dry creek beds.
River rock stays loose and rolls, so it suits beds, borders, and drainage runs where it can sit in place. Decomposed granite compacts into a firm surface, so it suits paths, patios, and anywhere you will walk or roll a wheelbarrow.
Spread river rock 2 to 3 inches deep over landscape fabric so it stays put and weeds stay down. Lay decomposed granite 3 to 4 inches deep, wet it, and compact it in lifts for a surface that sheds water instead of rutting.
