"The plan was established; but it ran over the amount by the time the job was finished on the previous house. On the second, lighting needs were not as extensive and the budget was maintained. In both cases, the outcomes were beyond expectations as they were subtle and non-obtrusive to the neighbors."

"We have been the general contractors on our beach home in Crescent Beach after having to fire our incompetent general contractor. Angie's List provided us with All Around Old Town and we are so grateful to the trenching completed by Frank Babb in order to energize our home. This is a contractor who is professional, shows up on time, completes the job requested without any excuses and cleans up after himself.

"was treated with honesty, dignity, and professionalism. A quick survey of the situation was done and a fair quote was stated. The timeline was agreed upon and true to their word they were on the job when stated and completed the digging, stamping and framing for the slab.. Unfortunately the weather delayed the cement truck, and EJS explained the delay with empathy and concern. When the cement was poured the crew worked to get the exact dimensions and precision leveling. A prefect result. They had enough cement to provide a small ramp to the slab and had extra crushed cement that would allow me to use on a different project. I was very pleased with the whole process and the excellent workmanship and courtesy of the EJS crew. Great work and I highly recommend."

Mulching is environmentally conscious because it reuses organic material onsite to decompose naturally and return nutrients to the soil. This approach helps prevent erosion by leaving root systems intact and creating a protective ground cover. Plus, mulching produces less air pollution than burning and causes less soil disturbance than excavation methods.
When vegetation is mulched in place, the root systems remain in the ground rather than being excavated. Over time, these roots decompose naturally, adding organic matter to the soil profile. The intact root network continues to provide soil stability during decomposition, reducing erosion risks. This gradual breakdown process creates channels for water infiltration and provides nutrients for future plantings.
New planting can typically begin shortly after forestry mulching is completed. The mulched material creates a nutrient-rich environment that supports new growth. For optimal results, allow the freshly mulched area to settle for a brief period before introducing new plants. This approach gives beneficial microorganisms time to begin breaking down the mulch and incorporating it into the soil structure.
Forestry mulching proves particularly valuable for properties with significant undergrowth, invasive species issues, or fire hazard concerns. Rural properties preparing for development, recreational land needing trails or clearings, and suburban lots with overgrown sections are all excellent candidates.
Forestry mulching can be an effective component of invasive species management by removing above-ground growth and creating conditions that favor desired plants. However, complete eradication often requires a comprehensive approach. Some invasive species can regenerate from remaining root fragments or seeds in the soil. For challenging invasives, combining mulching with targeted follow-up treatments often provides the most effective long-term control strategy.
