Ballard Spring Yard Clean-Up Services
Winter has left its mark in Ballard—leaves clutter the ground, perennials have bowed down, and moss is popping up everywhere. It’s time for a fresh start! Our team is ready to reset your yard—clearing debris, pruning, edging, mulching, and tuning everything up—so your garden is not just tidy but thriving as we welcome spring.
What’s the Problem?
- Leaf and needle mats suffocate your lawn and flower beds.
- Moss and thatch rob your lawn of its spring vibrancy.
- Flower beds lack definition—they need clean edges, fresh mulch, and a weed-free environment.
- Shrubs and perennials have flopped over, obstructing pathways, windows, or house numbers.
Our Spring Clean-Up Plan (Ballard-Specific)
Here’s how we prepare your yard for the blooming season:
- Leaf & Needle Removal — We clear all debris from lawns, flower beds, gravel seams, and hardscapes, hauling it all away.
- Bed Edge Re-Cut — We create deep, crisp edges for clean and defined flower beds throughout the season.
- Weed-Out + Pre-Emergent Treatment — We prevent pesky weed seeds from sprouting.
- Shrub Shaping & Perennial Cutbacks — We trim your plants at the right time for optimal blooming.
- Mulch Refresh — We apply 2–3 inches of fresh mulch, keeping it pulled back from trunks and siding.
- Lawn Jump-Start — Your first mow and edge of the season, plus options for moss treatment, dethatching/power raking, and core aeration.
- Optional Compost Top-Dress — A thin layer to nourish your soil biology for healthier growth.
- Irrigation Start-Up — We check your timer, fix quick issues, and set a seasonal watering schedule.
- Hardscape Tidy-Up — We blow and sweep pathways, spot-treating any slick algae on entries.
A spring reset without proper edges and mulch is just a tidy mess waiting to fall apart.
Optional Add-Ons
- Overseeding for thin lawn areas after dethatching or aeration.
- Gravel Top-Up to maintain clean side yards and bin pads.
- Paver Re-Sand for joints needing material replenishment.
- Pressure Washing for small entries or steps that have become slippery.
Our Annual Maintenance Plan
Keep your yard in prime condition all year with our comprehensive annual maintenance plan:
- Weed Suppression — Regular hand-weeding and targeted pre-emergent treatments.
- Mulch Management — Maintain that 2–3 inches of coverage and top-up thin spots.
- Pruning Calendar — We trim shrubs at the right times for blooming and bird nesting.
- Lawn Care — We focus on proper mowing heights, seasonal moss control, and aeration as needed.
- Edges & Lines — Regular re-edging of beds ensures crisp paths and driveways.
We’re your low-maintenance landscaping team, dedicated to solving problems between visits and minimizing your workload.
Service Cadences
- Quarterly — Enjoy seasonal deep cleans in spring and fall, plus two tune-ups in between.
- Bi-Monthly — Ideal for fast-growing gardens, heavy tree litter areas, or high-visibility fronts.
(If you’re starting fresh or battling heavy weeds, consider monthly visits for the first 60–90 days, then taper off.)
What Annual Maintenance Includes
- Bed edge re-cuts and debris haul-off.
- Targeted weed control and invasive plant management.
- Mulch top-ups and soil health improvements.
- Seasonal shrub shaping and perennial care.
- Lawn edges, quick health checks, and irrigation adjustments.
