Are your landscape beds in need of a face lift? A simple and easy solution to sprucing up your yard is to add ground covering to your landscape beds. Not only does it improve the appearance of your yard, but it also helps to keep weeds from sprouting, to trap moisture in the soil, and to prevent topsoil erosion. Birmingham Star Lawns provides a variety of mulch and pine straw services to enhance the appearance and improve the health of your landscaping beds.
Mulch Services in Birmingham, AL Mulching isn’t done just to make your landscaping beds look attractive. It is an important aspect of landscape maintenance because it controls weeds and retains soil moisture. It keeps the plant roots cool and moist during the summer months and acts as insulation during the winter months by protecting the plant roots from cold temperatures. Hauling and spreading mulch is a tedious and time consuming job for the average homeowner. Birmingham Star Lawns has perfected our mulching services and will have your garden beds protected and looking great in no time at all. We can determine how much mulch is needed with just a few measurements, will haul it to your property, and will install it quickly and efficiently. We offer a variety of mulching materials and colors for you to choose from and to make your yard stand out among the rest. Birmingham Pine Straw Services Pine needles, or pine straw, have become a very popular ground covering material in the South. They are naturally acidic when they are broken down, making them perfect for surrounding plants that thrive in acidic soil. When it rains, pine straw stays in place and doesn’t wash away, so it is a great option for hilly or sloped landscapes. Give Birmingham Star Lawns a call to discuss our pine straw services so we can determine how much you’ll need.
