Mulch & Soil

Topsoil

Screened topsoil for grading, lawn repair and new beds

Short answer

Screened bulk topsoil for filling low spots, grading, and building new lawns and beds. One cubic yard covers roughly 160 square feet at 2 inches deep. Available for pickup or Long Island delivery.

Topsoil is the workhorse of any landscape job: it fills, levels and gives roots something to grow into. Ours is screened so it spreads and rakes cleanly instead of fighting you with rocks and root balls.

For a new lawn, plan on 4–6 inches of topsoil over compacted subgrade. For overseeding and patching, a half inch to an inch is plenty. Mix in compost when the existing soil is sandy or lifeless — Long Island soil often is.

Common uses

  • New lawn installation and regrading
  • Filling settled areas and washouts
  • Building raised beds and planting islands
  • Topdressing before overseeding

Frequently asked

What is the difference between topsoil and fill dirt?
Topsoil contains organic matter and supports plant growth. Fill is subsoil used purely for volume and structure under a topsoil layer.
How much topsoil for a new lawn?
Budget 4–6 inches. A 1,000 sq ft lawn at 4 inches needs about 12.5 cubic yards.
