We recommend scheduling your rock installation service in the spring.

Spring is the perfect time to schedule rock installation, as your landscape is waking up from winter and you'll likely be scheduling other cleanup services during this time as well. However, this can be done any time throughout the year that your landscape beds need a pick-me-up! So whether it's spring, fall, or some other time, don't hesitate to pick up the phone and let us know you're wanting fresh rocks in your landscape beds. It'll look amazing no matter the time of year!


We offer a variety of rock options for installation, including river rock and trap rock.

With many different aesthetics out there, we offer a variety of rock options so that everyone can find one that works for them! The types of rock we install include:

  • River rock: A great option for those who prefer a multicolored ground cover, river rocks come in many color options and can add interest and vibrancy to your landscape.
  • Trap rock: Trap rock is cool-colored, with a bluish-gray appearance that will make any colorful landscape plants stand out.
  • Buckskin: Buckskin is generally more on the tan-to-red side of ground cover, providing warm color in your landscape bed.

With a great variation in rock selection, everyone can find one that matches their style and landscape plants to result in a stunning landscape bed!
