How to Bid, Charge, Estimate and Install Mulch

What happens here

With all mulch in place, the next step is to spread it evenly using a landscape rake. The speaker demonstrates using the rake with broad, efficient strokes to smoothly distribute the mulch from the piles across the entire bed, ensuring uniform depth. He then tidies up the edges, sweeping any stray mulch off the grass or pathways to achieve a clean and professional appearance.

Goal: Create a uniform layer of mulch and ensure a clean, professional look for the mulched areas.
