Default Stone Landscaping

Thinking of having mulch removed and going with stone. Just don't have the time to weed nor do I want to. Pros and cons and who should I use to have it installed. I already have the stone wall. Just looking to have the stone installed. Thank you in advance. Price also is important.

First, check with ARC, I had to get approval before changing mulch for stone. Costs nothing to to submit application, but could save you big time if you have to tear it up and replace.

I did it myself. Had 2 ton of rocks delivered on a tarp at the end of the driveway from Dirt Cheap and shoveled it myself. Not difficult if you are able bodied...

If you only need small amounts of stone, take a sample to Lowe's or home depot for a match, as i recall they both sell by the bag.
