Professional Mulch Installation in Ottawa

From mature perennial borders in the Glebe to newly planted beds in Kanata, Ottawa properties need properly installed mulch to suppress weeds, retain moisture, and protect root systems through Zone 5a extremes.

Ottawa's climate puts exceptional demands on garden beds. Deep frost from November through March heaves unprotected roots, while dry summer stretches bake exposed soil. Proper mulch application at the right depth and timing solves both problems while dramatically improving curb appeal. Our crews apply mulch across every Ottawa neighbourhood, from compact urban lots in Centretown to larger suburban properties in Orleans and Stittsville. We source high-quality materials from trusted local suppliers and prep every bed before application, ensuring maximum performance from every cubic yard of mulch we install.

Local Conditions

Ottawa's Rideau Canal corridor and riverside properties face additional moisture challenges. Mulch helps regulate soil moisture in low-lying areas while preventing erosion on sloped beds near waterways.

Community Presence

We run mulching crews across Ottawa's major residential zones on scheduled routes. Volume booking means competitive pricing for Ottawa homeowners, and our familiarity with each neighbourhood speeds the work.

Timing Advice

Ottawa's optimal mulching window is late May through June, after spring frost risk passes but before summer heat stresses unprotected beds. Fall top-ups in September protect root systems heading into winter.

This has been my first year with CleanYards and Sebastian. I have been more than pleased with the work he has done for me. The yard maintenance and the fall clean up have been done very well, much better than I could do myself. I look forward to next Spring when I can have Sebastian do more jobs for me.

Recently had new sod installed. Sebastien and Andre were friendly and helpful in helping me understand the work they would be doing, did a fantastic job, provided a helpful guide and an open channel of communication on advice for future care, and all at a good price. Would recommend Sebastien's business to anyone!
