Why Kennedale Homeowners Choose All American Landscape

Kennedale's summer heat is hard on beds that go without a proper mulch layer — soil dries out fast, and plants without that protective barrier show heat stress well before fall. We install a uniform 2–3 inch layer of hardwood or cedar mulch across every bed on the property, with clean edging cut at the lawn line so the finished look matches what bigger companies charge a premium for.

We price by cubic yardage needed, calculated during your free quote — no guesswork, no surprise bill once the truck shows up.

As a college-owned crew, we're motivated by reputation in a community where word travels fast, which means every edge gets cut clean and every bed gets covered to the depth we quoted.

How Fresh Mulch Protects Your Kennedale Landscape

North Texas summers routinely push past 100°F, and a proper mulch layer is one of the cheapest, highest-return ways to protect the plants and soil underneath it from that heat.

Cuts Water Loss

A 3-inch mulch layer can reduce soil moisture evaporation by up to 70%, meaning less watering and healthier plants through the summer.

Instant Curb Appeal

Fresh, dark mulch is one of the fastest and most affordable ways to make every bed on your property look sharp and intentional.

Suppresses Weeds

A proper depth of mulch blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds, cutting down on the weeding you have to do all season.

What type of mulch is best for North Texas?

Hardwood Mulch

  • ✓ Retains moisture well

  • ✓ Classic, versatile look
  • – Needs refreshing every 1–2 years
  • – Can wash out in heavy rain

Cedar Mulch

  • ✓ Naturally repels insects
  • ✓ Holds color longer

Bottom line: For most North Texas beds: hardwood for planted areas, cedar for high-visibility entry beds, rock for low-water borders.

What do we recommend for North Texas mulch in 2026?

For most DFW homes in 2026, we recommend hardwood mulch for planted beds and cedar for entryway or high-visibility areas where the deeper color and natural insect resistance are worth the small upgrade. A 3-inch depth is the sweet spot — enough to cut water evaporation by up to 70% during peak summer heat without smothering plant crowns.

Does mulch really prevent weeds?

Yes — a 2–3 inch layer of mulch blocks sunlight from reaching weed seeds in the soil below, which is what stops them from germinating in the first place. Combined with a landscape weed barrier underneath, it provides strong, long-term weed suppression with minimal upkeep.

How often should mulch be replaced?

Hardwood mulch typically needs refreshing every 1–2 years as it breaks down into the soil. Cedar mulch holds its color and structure slightly longer. Rock or gravel ground cover never needs replacing, though it can shift over time and require occasional re-leveling.

Should old mulch be removed before installing new mulch?

If the existing layer is more than 3–4 inches deep or has compacted into a solid mat, yes — we recommend removing it first so the fresh layer can actually do its job. A thin, still-loose layer can sometimes just be topped off. We assess this for free during your quote.
