AGC supplies professional‑grade landscape materials selected for system compatibility and longevity, not just appearance
Mulch
Use When: Moisture retention, soil temperature control, erosion reduction Key Considerations: Depth, organic vs inorganic, drainage interaction Common Failures: Excess depth causing root suffocation
Weed Mat's
Use When: Long‑term weed suppression under hardscape or turf Key Considerations: Permeability, anchoring, overlap Common Failures: Blocking drainage, poor fastening
Landscape Edging
Use When: Defining turf, beds, and hardscape transitions Key Considerations: Soil movement, anchoring method, material flexibility Common Failures: Shallow staking, thermal expansion issues
Landscape Supplies FAQs
How do I choose between different mulches?
Selection depends on moisture retention goals, slope/erosion conditions, appearance requirements, and maintenance expectations. Depth and placement matter as much as material type.
Is weed mat always a good idea?
Not always. Weed mat can help under rock or hardscape, but improper HTML installation can block drainage, trap organics, and create maintenance issues over time.
What causes edging to heave or separate?
Shallow staking, soil movement, and thermal expansion can shift edging. Correct anchoring depth and allowances for expansion improve longevity.
Can landscape supplies affect drainage performance?
Yes. Fabrics, aggregates, and mulch depths can change infiltration and surface flow. Materials should be selected with drainage intent in mind.
