Roots and Shoots woodchip is the best there is. We use larger chipping machines so there is more wood and less leaf in the chips and we always keep the blades sharp so that stringy bits are rare. All our woodchip is composted to kill plant pests and diseases and to neutralise plant toxins. This means your woodchip mulch will work better, look better, and last longer than what is available from other tree surgeons.

Mulching simply means putting a layer of cover on the surface of the ground which will rot into the soil over a period of time. Wood chipping's are ideal for use around the garden as a mulch on your shrub beds, or it can be used to make a soft landing for your children's play area or horse riding arena.

The benefits of using Roots and Shoots woodchip as a mulch around the garden are:
Improvement of soil structure as the woodchip rots down. The mulch protects the soil from heavy rain and stops the soil compacting. When the organic matter rots down it is food for earth worms which further help the soil as they burrow creating channels which improves aeration and water drainage.

Insulation of soil from extreme temperatures. A thick layer of mulch on the soil acts as an insulator which helps root development.

Reduces evaporation from the soil and reduces the amount of time spent watering the garden.

Suppresses weed growth in your flower beds.
You will need 4 inches of mulch to completely block the light from the soil beneath.
(If your mulch is too thick your mulch may damage the base of plant stems.)
