I had to deal with this couple of years back. I went to a company in the Crosby area that sells, dirt, mulch, rocks etc... And bought three yards of a topsoil/sand mixture and used it to relevel the entire yard and build up a couple of flower beds. Went and found a couple of local labor hands and we went to work. After we spread the dirt mixture we sodded. It was a lot of work keeping weeds out, but within a month or two the St Augustine began to flourish.

I also bought a pallet of moss rock and 2 yards of bull rock at the same time as well. I went all in that summer and totally transformed my barren dead yard to one of the nices on the block.

Last summer I layed a flagstone walk way from the side of my driveway, through a small portion of my yard, then through a huge flower/rock bed I had out front to seperate it into two smaller ones. That was probably the most fun I've had yet while landscaping. I dug a trench the length and width of the walkway then filled the trench with rocks first then sand on top. Leveled it, layed the flagstone, and filled the seams inbetween the stones with crushed granite. That was a LOT of work but I knocked it out it two afternoons after being at work all day. Only needed help when unloading all the sand from the bed of my truck so that I could finish and be able to drive it to work the next day.

Absolutely love landscapping.
