Mulch & Gravel in Severance, CO
Brooks Landscape has been designing and installing mulch & gravel for homeowners in Severance since 2006. Severance sits at the intersection of rural and residential Northern Colorado, and the properties here range from newer subdivisions to parcels with genuine room to work with. Our crews know Weld County's soil conditions, drainage patterns, and local permit requirements — and we build every project to last through Northern Colorado's freeze-thaw cycles.

How We Work
Mulch and gravel work looks simple, but the difference between a professional installation and a DIY job shows within one season. Depth, substrate prep, edging, and material selection all determine how well the installation performs over time.
Brooks Landscape installs both organic mulch and decorative gravel for residential properties across Northern Colorado. We handle the full scope: edging definition, weed barrier where appropriate, proper depth installation, and grading to prevent material migration after heavy rain.
For mulch, we typically install 3 inches of shredded wood mulch—enough to suppress weeds and retain moisture without the matting that comes with overly thick applications. For gravel, we work with homeowners on material selection (pea gravel, river rock, crusher fines, and decomposed granite are all options depending on the application) and install over appropriate geotextile to prevent migration into soil.
Bed definition and edging are part of every installation. A sharp edge between mulch and turf, or gravel and planting beds, is what makes the rest of the landscape look intentional.
