"Called for an estimate and the company came out and provided a free estimate for the spot I was looking to install a patio. Kyle provided a few options as I didn't know exactly what type of stone to go with. The estimate ended up coming in over $1k cheaper than the other companies. The job took a day to do and it was all coordinated over email because of my schedule. I just left the gate unlock. It looks great and is everything I imagined. I've gotten several compliments already. I would highly recommend company."

"We recently moved to Columbia and I wanted to lay some river rock in 3 areas of my courtyard to make a permanent cover where previously it was mulch. The estimate was about 3 tons of stone and I contacted a local stone supplier for the materials. At the same time I checked on HomeAdvisor for someone to to the work placing all the stone as that's just too big a job for me to do by myself (maybe 20 years ago....). After reading the reviews and checking with several companies I was very pleased with my conversation with Fred from DMF Landscaping and decided to go with Fred. He worked up an estimate for me that included everything start to finish, and also included an option to pickup the stone as part of the project rather than having to coordinate with the Stone Store for delivery. The price was not the lowest, and was the next to highest, but in a world where you don't wlays get what you pay for, I found Fred's estimate to be very fair, assuming quality work would be included. Fred contacted me the day before the project to confirm, and that was already off to a good start as that doesn't always happen with contractors. Many times it's been a guessing.waiting game. Not with DMF! On project day Fred called me from the Stone Store to let me know he had the materials and was on the way over. 40 minutes later he and his team arrived on schedule and after a quick walk-through of the project site to make sure everyone was on the same page, they got to work. His crew were friendly and very conscientious of their work: -- the type of stone we ordered ranged in size from 2-3 inches across (think big golf ball) to 5-6 inches across on some of the bigger stones (big softball). My wife and I were able to see them working through the kitchen windows and we noticed the care they used to select the largest stones to place around the edges of each of the areas to create a border, and them placed the smaller stone in the middle to fill out the areas. This careful border placement very much added to the visual appeal of the areas. It would have been quite easy for them to just dump all the stones and spread them out, and I mist likely would not have known the difference. But they went to this extra effort and the results are simply fantastic. Fred was an excellent communicator through the entire process and I cannot recommend them highly enough. I will absolutely be calling on Fred and the DMF team for all future work, and have already given his name to several neighbors who came by to compliment us on the 'new look'. It's really a show stopper and it's due to the hard work and professionalism of Fred and his crew. Not easy to find this type of quality and concern for a job well done, so in closing, a big 'THANK YOU - WELL DONE' to Fred and DMF!"

"McPherson did an incredible job, transforming my front yard, which was nothing but rocks, clay, and weeds, into a beautiful green lawn. They removed two large tree stumps, cultivated fertilized at topsoil and seated my front and side lawns. They're very professional, courteous, and efficient. I highly recommend this company."

FAQs for landscape soil, sand, mulch and rock delivery projects in Ellicott City, MD

Topsoil packs your garden with the nutrients plants crave, improves soil structure, and lets water drain at just the right pace. The result is a welcoming planting bed that makes routine chores—like weeding and aerating—far easier. In short, quality topsoil boosts fertility, builds stronger root systems, and keeps your landscape looking vibrant season after season.

If you’re tackling a large area and have room to store extra soil, bulk delivery almost always wins on price. Bags cost more per cubic yard but arrive clean, sealed, and easy to haul around tight spaces or raised beds. Match the option to your square footage, storage space, and muscle power, and you’ll find the most cost-effective and hassle-free choice for your project.

First, measure the square footage you want to cover, then decide on a layer—most gardens thrive with 4 to 8 inches of fresh topsoil. A 40-pound bag spreads over 12 square feet at a depth of one inch. Multiply your area by the desired depth (in inches), divide by 12, and you’ll know exactly how many bags to load in the cart. Using this quick formula guarantees even coverage and a healthy, vibrant garden bed.
