Very easy to place order online for our exact needs and very flexible for when we needed

At a 2 to 3 inch install depth, one cubic yard of landscape rock covers roughly 162 square feet at the shallow end of that range. Measure your bed's length and width, decide if you want closer to 2 or 3 inches deep, and order in full cubic yards since partial yards are hard to schedule and easy to run short on. Most front yard beds in the Falls run 100 to 300 square feet, so plan for 1 to 2 yards for a typical bed.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 100-160 square feet at a 2-3 inch depth.

A yard is approximately 27 cubic feet. As a general guideline, one yard of material can cover an area of about 10 feet by 10 feet at a few inches deep.

Landscape fabric underneath is what makes a rock install last a decade instead of getting overrun with clay soil and weeds within a season or two. Steel or aluminum edging keeps rock from migrating into the lawn during mowing, which is a common complaint we hear from Falls homeowners with clay yards that heave slightly each freeze thaw cycle. A few cubic yards of mulch for the planting beds nearby gives a clean visual break between organic and mineral areas.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Lay landscape fabric before the rock goes down, overlapping seams by at least six inches, and pin it well since Menomonee Falls clay expands and contracts enough through freeze thaw cycles to lift loose edges over a winter. Skipping fabric means the rock will slowly work down into the clay over a year or two, mixing with soil and getting harder to rake clean later.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

The most common mistake we see locally is installing rock right up against downspouts without a splash block or extended discharge, which lets concentrated water carve a channel through the clay underneath the fabric. Add a splash block or a short buried drain extension before you spread the rock so the discharge point is set once and does not need to be redone.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Because this is a one time install rather than an annual refresh like mulch, it pays to buy the depth you actually want the first time rather than a thin layer you plan to top up later. A slightly heavier initial order costs less over ten years than repeated thin deliveries, and it suppresses weeds better from day one against clay soil that is otherwise quick to grow them.

Decorative Stone in Menomonee Falls

Menomonee Falls sits on heavy clay that drains slowly, and rock beds actually help here because they shed water off the surface instead of letting it pool against a foundation the way organic mulch can when it compacts. With a growing season bounded by a May 3 last frost and an Oct 13 first frost, most installs happen in a tight spring or fall window, and rock is one of the few materials that does not care which one you pick since it is not tied to a planting cycle. It also holds up through freeze thaw cycles at our elevation without shifting much, which matters more here than in milder climates. The tradeoff is that clay soil beds tend to collect leaf litter in fall, so rock over fabric near mature trees will need occasional blowing out.

What Landscape Rock Is

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 vs Decomposed Granite

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.

Depth and Coverage

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

Does landscape rock work well with the clay soil we have in Menomonee Falls?

Yes, rock actually performs better than mulch on clay soil because it does not compact into the surface or hold standing water against a foundation. Install fabric underneath first so the rock stays separated from the clay, otherwise the two will slowly mix over a couple seasons and get harder to maintain.

Answer

How many cubic yards do I need for a 200 square foot bed?

At a 2 inch depth, one cubic yard covers about 162 square feet, so a 200 square foot bed needs a little more than a yard, and most people round up to 2 yards to get closer to a full 3 inch depth for better weed suppression and long term coverage.

Answer

What time of year should I install rock in Menomonee Falls?

Rock can go down anytime the ground is not frozen, so most people work between the May 3 last frost and the Oct 13 first frost. Since it is a one time install rather than a seasonal refresh, timing matters less than having fabric and edging ready before the delivery arrives.

Answer

Where will the truck place the rock on delivery day?

The load gets placed at your driveway or the nearest spot the truck can safely reach, since it is scheduled at checkout based on your address details. If the truck needs to cross lawn to reach the bed, put down plywood or a tarp first, especially after rain when clay soil gets soft and can rut.

Answer

Should I choose rock or mulch for a bed near my house foundation?

Rock is generally the better choice against foundations since it does not hold moisture against siding the way mulch can, and it will not need replacing every year or two. Save mulch for beds with plants that benefit from organic matter breaking down into the clay soil over time.
