Mulching & Barking
A Complete New Look Without the Extra Effort
A new layer of mulch or bark gives your landscape a refreshed, complete look without the extra effort. North East Landscaping Services installs premium materials with consistency and care, protecting your soil, improving plant health, and giving your property a clean, polished finish you’ll feel proud of.
Polished Landscapes That Protect and Perform
Why Mulching &
Barking Matter
Over time, landscape beds lose color and structure. A fresh layer of mulch or bark instantly restores order and vitality.
Each installation is tailored to your property’s soil, plant type, and layout to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and keep your landscape thriving through every season. Our Green Truck Promise means uniformed crews arrive on time and complete your project with care and professionalism.
Material Options
Choose the Right Finish for Your Landscape
Select from dark mulch, fine bark, or medium bark — each installed at the proper depth for lasting performance and a clean, natural appearance.
Both materials help:
Lock in moisture and protect plant roots
Reduce weed growth and erosion
Regulate soil temperature for healthier plants
Refresh your landscape instantly with a well-kept look
