Burien Curb and Sidewalk Edge Cleaning
Homeowner’s Issue
Seattle-area weather brings frequent rain, moss, and packed dirt along curbs and sidewalks, which can hide trip hazards and slow drainage. Sloped lots and compacted urban soils near Seahurst Park and White Center make edges germinate weeds and hold moisture, increasing maintenance and slipperiness.
Landlords and homeowners want tidy, safe fronts that don’t eat weekends or turnover budgets. Typical goals are clear lines for mowing, reduced weeds without chemicals, and durable solutions that handle seasonal rain.
Our Quality Service
We focus on manual and mechanical cleaning that respects local soil and slope conditions, removing debris, moss, and root runners by hand or with light edging tools. Work is timed for dry windows when possible to reduce compaction and to help runoff move away from foundations.
Benefits include safer walkways, better curb appeal for tenants or resale, and lower ongoing upkeep through sustainable methods and smart drainage adjustments.
What’s Included
- Debris removal: leaves, litter, and sediment from curb lines and joints
- Manual weeding and trimming at the sidewalk edge
- Mechanical edging for crisp profiles next to turf and beds
- Light raking and soil loosening to improve drainage
- Sweep and final tidy
Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + landscape fabric installation for beds
- Organic, non-toxic weed control and repeat follow-ups
- Haul-away of waste or green bin compost disposal
Before & After / Expectations
After service expect clearer lines, quicker drying in wet spells, and fewer seedling weeds for several months. Moss and ivy regrowth are common in shady, damp spots; repeat visits or mulching reduce recurrence.
Water new or disturbed edging sparingly, and inspect drains and gutters after heavy rains to keep run-off moving away from sidewalks.
