Edging

Edging can have a practical role, such as holding mulch in place, preventing mowers from damaging your prized plants, stop grass growing into your gardens and just keep things looking neat. Depending on your aesthetic and functional purposes for edging, options range from a simple trench to timber, rock, bricks, metal and even high-end paving stones. We'll help you sort through all the considerations at play so you can decide which landscape edging will work best in your garden.

Mulching Garden Beds

No need to dispose of your wood and branches! SHM can convert your waste into wood chips and mulch, ready to use in your garden. We also come to your property if you have your own trimmings, just to mulch the branches for you. This way you avoid costly tip fees.

There are four important reasons to mulch your garden beds. The first is for water conservation. Mulch stops the top of the soil drying out, keeps the soil moist, and can reduce watering by about 60 per cent in the warmer months.
Mulching also prevents weeds and weed seed germination, which compete with plants for moisture and nutrients. Mulching also keeps the soil temperature constant, and using an organic mulch means you're adding extra organic matter to the soil.
Mulch is a big factor in building rich and healthy soil. The long term benefits of using garden mulch will be promising. Rich soil will ensure an abundance of healthy plant life in your garden. Plant mulch and bark mulches are also great to use as a decorative finish to your garden beds.
