Decorative mulch, gravel and stone that finish beds and cut down on weeds.
Mulch and rock work transforms the steep, rocky slopes around Lakeway into polished landscape beds that hold color year-round and fight the limestone runoff that makes this terrain tough on planted areas. Your estate or golf-course community home sits above Lake Travis on ground that drains fast and heats up quick, so the right mulch or stone choice matters-it's not just finishing the look, it's protecting your investment in every bed.
Here at Corral Bros, we know Lakeway's hillsides and what grows or struggles on them. We lay clean bed edging, install weed barrier under mulch or gravel, and keep decomposed granite, river rock, hardwood, cedar, and dyed mulch in stock. Whether you're refreshing tired color in The Hills or Rough Hollow, or building new beds around Flintrock stone, we schedule your free on-site estimate within 48 hours and handle it all-landscape design and installation across residential and commercial properties throughout the corridor.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your Lakeway property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and mulch & rock work that holds up to Travis 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.
Lakeway's limestone hillsides and fast drainage mean bare soil bakes and erodes fast. Mulch holds moisture and cools roots; rock stabilizes steep banks. Both cut weeds that thrive in our thin, rocky ground. Corral Bros chooses materials built for Hill Country heat and slope runoff.
Cost depends on bed size, slope, material choice, and whether we're edging or adding weed barrier. A free on-site estimate from Corral Bros is the only honest answer-we usually schedule within 48 hours and give you a straight price. Call (737) 404-9343.
Hardwood lasts longer and breaks down slower. Cedar smells good and repels some pests. Dyed mulch holds rich color for a full season in Lakeway's sun and heat. All three control weeds and retain moisture better than bare ground on our limestone slopes.
Yes, especially on Lakeway's rocky ground where weeds seed fast in thin soil. Corral Bros installs landscape fabric under mulch or gravel, then clean bed edges to keep material in place and stop runoff from washing rock downslope into your neighbors' yards.
We offer refresh programs to top-dress your beds with fresh color every 12 to 18 months. Lakeway's intense sun fades mulch faster than cooler climates. A refresh looks sharp and keeps the weed-suppression game strong without ripping out what's already down.
