Mulching & Bed Maintenance

Why Your Garden Beds Need Regular Care

Garden beds frame your landscape and showcase your plants. But without regular maintenance, they quickly become overgrown with weeds, the mulch fades and spreads thin, and the whole area starts looking neglected. This not only hurts your curb appeal but also stresses your plants.

ProWorks Freeport Landscaping keeps your garden beds looking pristine year-round. We handle everything from weeding and edging to fresh mulch installation. Our team knows that quality bed maintenance does more than improve appearance. It helps your plants thrive by controlling weeds, retaining soil moisture, regulating temperature, and adding nutrients as organic mulch breaks down.

Well-maintained beds make your entire landscape look more polished and professional. When paired with our comprehensive landscaping services in Freeport, you get a complete outdoor space that always looks its best.

Choosing the Right Mulch for Your Beds

Not all mulch works the same way. Organic mulches like shredded hardwood, cedar, or pine break down over time and enrich your soil. They look natural and work well in most landscape beds. Cedar has a pleasant smell and resists insects. Hardwood mulch lasts longer and holds its color better than other options.

Inorganic options like stone or rubber do not break down, so they last years without needing replacement. Stone works great around trees and in areas where you want permanent coverage. Different colors and sizes let you create specific looks.

We help you choose mulch based on your aesthetic preferences, maintenance expectations, and budget. Most homeowners in Freeport prefer organic mulch for its natural look and plant benefits, replacing it every one to two years to keep beds looking fresh.
