Decorative mulch, gravel and stone that finish beds and cut down on weeds.
Mulch and rock work in San Antonio is about more than looks. With caliche-heavy soils and limestone shelves breaking up yards across Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, and Shavano Park, you need someone who knows how to prep those beds right and lay material that actually stays put. Corral Bros handles the whole job: bed edging and weed barrier work that stops the limestone from creeping back, plus the right mulch or stone for your soil and sun.
Bexar County properties run from tight historic in-town lots to sprawling newer builds, and each one has its own drainage quirks. We match hardwood, cedar, and dyed mulch to what your beds can handle, or go with decomposed granite and river rock if that suits your property better. One estimate call, and we'll show you what makes sense for your yard and your soil.
We're locally owned and family-built, licensed and insured, and we handle this work for both residential and commercial properties. Call (737) 404-9343 for a free on-site estimate, usually scheduled within 48 hours.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your San Antonio property like our own — tidy crews, clear pricing, and mulch & rock work that holds up to Bexar 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.
Cost depends on bed size, material choice, and prep work needed. We'll visit your property, measure what you have, and give you a free estimate on site, usually within 48 hours of your call. That way you see exactly what you're paying for and can decide if the job fits your budget.
Yes, but prep is key. Caliche and limestone shelves need proper bed edging and weed barrier so mulch doesn't mix with the hard soil underneath. We handle that grading and barrier work as part of the job, so your mulch stays in place and does its job keeping weeds down.
Hardwood mulch breaks down slowly and holds moisture well, cedar mulch smells great and resists pests, and dyed mulch stays darker longer if color matters to your landscaping. Decomposed granite and river rock don't break down at all, so they're good for dry spots and around trees that don't need the moisture retention.
San Antonio sun and heat fade mulch color in a year or two, especially dyed varieties. We offer refresh programs where we top your beds with fresh material to keep that finished look without tearing out what's there. Many of our customers do this every other year or so.
Absolutely. We work with boulders and decorative stone across all the neighborhoods we serve, including Stone Oak and Shavano Park. We'll design placement so it looks natural to your yard and stands up to Texas drainage and weather.
