Why Weeds Keep Winning in Burien
Weeds can be tenacious little invaders! Here’s the scoop on why they seem to have the upper hand:
- Shallow pulls leave behind crowns and rhizomes that just bounce back like boomerangs.
- Bare soil or thin mulch lets sunlight reach the seed bank, encouraging a new generation of weeds.
- Old landscape fabric can become a cozy nesting ground for weeds, trapping soil and creating a nursery.
- Stressed lawns (like those that are too short or compacted) provide the perfect playground for unwanted guests.
To achieve a low-maintenance landscape, our focus is on blocking light, enhancing density, and removing roots—because we believe in a weed-free zone!
Our Weed Control Method: The Neat & Tidy Way
Beds & Borders (Quick, Visible Results)
- Root-level hand weeding — We carefully lift crowns and trace rhizomes and runners (think ivy, blackberry, and bindweed) to ensure they don’t come back.
- Edge & shape — We create sharp spade-cut borders to stop grass creep and make your beds truly shine.
- Mulch or gravel top-up (optional) — Adding 2–3 inches will shade the soil, retain moisture, and beautify your garden. It’s like a cozy blanket for your plants!
- Smart fabric use — We’ll remove ineffective barriers and only recommend where they really make a difference.
- Clean finish — We blow and sweep hardscapes, ensuring all debris is bagged and hauled away, leaving your space spotless.
Lawns (Empowering Your Grass)
- Correct mow height (3.0–3.5 inches) helps to shade out weeds naturally and encourages healthier grass.
- Sharp blades are used every service for a clean cut, reducing stress and promoting growth.
- Core aeration (optional) to relieve compaction and improve drainage—because healthy soil is happy soil!
- Dethatching (optional) to remove moss mats and promote healthy growth.
- Overseeding + compost top-dress (optional) to thicken thin areas for a lush, green lawn.
