Default Mulch around bushes

My old landscaper told me that adding mulch around my bushes would
kill the bushes. Is this correct? After five years I need to add more
soil to the area where my bushes are (near my patio) as the rain has
washed a good amount of it away. Should I just add soil and forget
about the mulch?


Thank you,

Javier

Add soil if it has eroded. Keep the mulch it conserves moisture.
