Tovar Landscaping: Local Landscapers Serving Midvale, UT 84047

Midvale's dry climate and intense sun cause mulch to lose moisture rapidly. We address this by first improving the underlying soil health to retain water better. We then recommend and install high-quality, longer-lasting mulch materials and can integrate efficient drip irrigation lines beneath the mulch layer to deliver water directly to plant roots, reducing evaporation and keeping your landscape hydrated and healthy.

Shifting rocks are often due to improper base preparation and erosion. Our team fixes this by excavating the area, installing a stable, compacted base of road base or decomposed granite, and laying a professional-grade landscape fabric to suppress weeds and separate soil layers. We then expertly place and secure the rocks, creating a clean, durable finish that withstands Utah's freeze-thaw cycles and stays put for years to come.

For a beautiful, low-water option, we often recommend decomposed granite (DG) for pathways and patio areas. When properly installed with stabilizer, it creates a solid, permeable surface that doesn't blow or wash away. For planting beds, we suggest using a thicker layer of high-quality bark nuggets or incorporating drought-tolerant ground covers, which we can help you select and plant to reduce mulch area and maintenance while adding greenery.
