West Seattle Weed Control Services
Dandelions in the lawn, shotweed in the beds, ivy and blackberry sneaking over the fence? We see it every day. Neat & Tidy removes weeds at the root, cleans up the edges, and sets your yard up to stay easy. We serve Admiral, Alaska Junction, Alki, Fauntleroy, Arbor Heights, Delridge, Gatewood, High Point, Morgan Junction, and Roxhill.
Why Weeds Keep Winning Here
- Shallow pulls leave crowns/rhizomes that bounce back
- Bare soil or thin mulch lets light hit the seed bank
- Old landscape fabric traps soil on top—basically a weed planter
- Stressed lawns (too short, compacted) open space for invaders
Low maintenance happens when you block light, improve density, and remove roots.
Our Weed Control Method
Beds & Borders (fast, visible wins)
- Root-level hand weeding — lift crowns; trace rhizomes/runners (ivy, blackberry, bindweed)
- Edge & shape — crisp spade-cut borders stop grass creep and make beds pop
- Mulch or gravel top-up (optional) — 2–3” to shade soil and hold moisture
- Fabric smart — remove failed fabric; only use barriers where they truly help
- Clean finish — blow/sweep hardscapes; bag/haul all debris
Lawns (make the grass do the work)
- Correct mow height (3.0–3.5”) to shade out weeds
- Sharp blades every service for a clean cut, less stress
- Core aeration (optional) to relieve compaction, improve drainage
- Dethatching (optional) to reduce moss mats
- Overseeding + compost top-dress (optional) to thicken thin areas
What’s Included (Standard Visit)
- Root-level bed weeding + light crack/corner weeding on hardscapes
- Edging touch-ups along beds and lawn seams
- Debris loading and eco-friendly disposal
- Simple care notes to keep it easy between visits
Popular add-ons: mulch/gravel top-up, full edge re-cut, aeration, dethatching, overseeding.
Service Cadences (Pick What Fits)
- Monthly (Apr–Oct): high weed pressure or busy gardens
- Bi-Monthly (Mar–Nov): most West Seattle yards
- Quarterly: lower pressure + good mulch cover
- One-Time Reset: reclaim neglected beds or prep for listing
Why This Sticks (Low-Maintenance Wins)
- Blocking light + pulling roots = longer gaps between weeds
- Defined edges = less trimming and fewer strays in the lawn
- Thicker turf = fewer openings for lawn weeds
- Consistent cadence = a yard that stays neat with less effort
