Burien Brush Clearing Under Fences

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien gets its fair share of rain, mild winters, and pockets of shade from tall evergreens — a combo that encourages moss, ivy, and dense brush under fences. Many yards sit on gentle slopes or compacted soils that hold water near fence lines, causing rot, pest habitat, and messy edges. Renters and landlords especially notice how quickly fence bases and narrow strips fill with debris after a storm, and homeowners want durable, low-maintenance fixes that don’t rely on chemicals. Typical goals are clear: improve drainage, remove pest harbors, tidy sightlines for curb appeal, and choose sustainable options so repeat work is minimal. Near Seahurst Park and the White Center corridors, wind and salt spray can also stress plants differently, so targeted removal and hearty ground covers work better than one-size-fits-all solutions.

Our Quality Service

We remove brush and weeds by hand and with light mechanical tools, keeping soil disturbance low and avoiding herbicides. We focus on safe work around fences, addressing drainage and slope issues while reducing future maintenance. Benefits include improved safety, better curb appeal, and long‑lasting, low‑maintenance results using sustainable practices like mulching and composting.

What’s Included

  • Onsite assessment and written estimate.
  • Hand-pull and brushcut clearing under and along fences.
  • Trim back overhangs, remove debris, and tidy edges.
  • Debris removal: choose haul-away or green‑bin disposal.
  • Final sweep and basic drainage checks.

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric for persistent strips.
  • Organic weed control (manual/physical methods only).
  • Gravel or soil grading for improved drainage.

Before & After / Expectations

After clearing expect a cleaner sightline and fewer pests within days. Keep areas dry and aerated, water only new plants, rake moss lightly, and pull ivy early before it reestablishes. Recheck fence bases quarterly in Burien’s wet season.

FAQs

  • How long will it take? Most residential fence runs finish in a few hours; large properties may need a day.
  • Do you use herbicides? No — we rely on manual removal, mulches, and mechanical methods.
  • Can you haul debris away? Yes — choose full haul‑away or green‑bin drop‑off.
  • Do I need to be home? No, but photos or a quick walk‑through help us give accurate estimates.
