We also had our grass removed believing that stone would be more economical and easier to live with. Boy were we mistaken. They used a sod cutter to remove the Zoysia grass (aka Torpedo grass). Then staked down weed block cloth. Over time the weeds and residual Zoysia popped through. It was much easier getting the grass cut then finding someone to pull weeds. Of course we also sprayed Roundup when we were here. To make a long story short, grass was easier. We still had to water the shrubs.
