Decorative mulch, gravel and stone that finish beds and cut down on weeds.
Corral Bros does mulch and rock work throughout Bastrop: decorative mulch, gravel, and stone that dress up beds, suppress weeds, and hold moisture where the ground needs it. In Lost Pines country the sandy soil dries out fast and loses moisture quick, so a good mulch layer does real work here, keeping roots cooler and cutting how often you water. It also keeps weeds down so your beds stay clean between visits.
On wooded lots in Tahitian Village and Pine Forest, decorative rock and gravel handle heavy pine litter and slope better than mulch alone, and they don't wash out on sandy ground the way loose material can. We pick the right material for each bed and grade so it stays put after a Hill Country rain. We're family-built, locally owned, licensed and insured.

We're a local, family-built company that treats your Bastrop property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and mulch & rock work that holds up to Bastrop County conditions. Available as a one-time project or part of an ongoing plan.
Apply mulch 2 to 3 inches thick for the best results: enough to suppress weeds and hold soil moisture through Central Texas heat, but not so deep that it smothers roots. Keep mulch a few inches off plant stems and tree trunks to prevent rot.
Both have a place: organic mulch improves soil and suits planting beds, while decomposed granite, gravel and river rock are low-maintenance and ideal for paths, dry areas and xeriscapes. Many Central Texas yards use mulch in plant beds and rock in high-traffic or water-wise zones.
Yes. The Lost Pines soil drains and dries fast, so a proper mulch layer holds moisture, keeps roots cooler, and cuts your watering. It also blocks weeds. Corral Bros picks the mulch depth and type that helps most on your specific Bastrop beds.
It depends on the spot. Rock and gravel hold up better on slopes and under heavy pine litter, while mulch feeds the soil as it breaks down. On many Bastrop lots we mix both. Corral Bros recommends the right material for each bed and how it drains.
On Bastrop's sandy, sometimes sloped ground, loose material can migrate after a storm. Corral Bros grades beds, sets edging, and chooses stone sizes that stay put, so your beds still look sharp after the next Hill Country downpour.
It scales with bed size, material choice, and depth. Corral Bros measures your Bastrop beds, talks through mulch versus rock, and gives you a free no-obligation estimate, usually within 48 hours, so you know the number before we start.
