Default Landscape Rocks

I have a patio villa in Buttonwood and want to replace the mulch with rocks. I have never done this before. Any words of caution would be appreciated.

Also, I need someone to do the rock work. I read somewhere here that Rupert Cross does good work. I would like a couple other names so I can price compare. Thank you!

Make sure they put weed mat down, it helps keep the weeds down and keeps the rock form settling into the dirt.

Default landscape rock

I went to Dirt Cheap out on 441 north of The Villages and picked out the rock I wanted. They have several names of people you can call to spread the rock. We used Josh, who owns Laguna Lawn Services. He happens to go to our church and he did the job for 1/3 of one of our estimates. I highly recommend him. Ph. 352-638-4347.

I've used "Have Rock Will Roll" (Zack) and also Terrascape for rock.
