Decorative mulch, gravel and stone that finish beds and cut down on weeds.
Mulch and rock work in West Lake Hills means keeping your beds defined and weed-free on land that slopes hard over Austin limestone. The wooded estates around Rollingwood, Davenport Ranch, and Eanes sit on steep canyon lots where summer heat and runoff demand practical solutions. Decorative mulch, decomposed granite, and river rock do the work: they anchor your planting beds, suppress weeds, and give your property's bones a finished look.
The local ground here is rocky and unforgiving, and standard mulch won't hold the line when you've got grade to manage. Corral Bros knows West Lake Hills terrain. We edge beds clean, lay weed barrier where it matters, and choose the right material-hardwood, cedar, dyed, or stone-for each zone on your lot. We also run refresh programs so your mulch color stays sharp through the heat and doesn't break down too fast in this climate.
Free on-site estimates scheduled within 48 hours. We're licensed, insured, locally owned, and we show up ready to solve what those slopes throw at you.
We're a local, family-built company that treats your West Lake Hills 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.
Cedar and hardwood mulch hold well on slopes and break down slowly in our Texas heat. For extreme grades, decomposed granite or river rock won't wash away as easily. Dyed mulch gives color but moves more under heavy runoff. We assess your specific lot pitch and sun exposure and recommend what will actually stay put during our summer storms.
West Lake Hills' heat and sun break down most mulches in 18 to 24 months. Cedar lasts a bit longer. We offer refresh programs where we top off beds each year or every other year, keeping color consistent without a full replace. Many customers in Davenport Ranch and Rollingwood use this approach to stay on budget.
Estimates are free and on-site. We measure your beds, talk about material, slope, and access, then give you a clear price. We don't charge for the estimate itself. Pricing is honest and based on what your West Lake Hills lot actually needs, not what we can upsell.
Rock and gravel combined with proper weed barrier stop most weeds, but they won't solve everything on their own. We lay barrier under all our installations and edge beds clean so you're not fighting regrowth at the line. In West Lake Hills' summer, a finished installation lasts longer than mulch alone.
Yes. Limestone outcrops and boulders are part of every West Lake Hills yard. We work around them, sometimes feature them, and plan bed access and drainage with them in mind. Our crew knows the land here. We don't fight the terrain; we use it.
