Burien Quarterly landscape service
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a distinct mix of challenges: heavy seasonal rain, compact clay loam in places, shaded pockets under mature maples, and sloped lots toward Puget Sound or near Seahurst Park. These conditions encourage moss, shallow-rooted weeds, and runoff that can erode beds and wash away mulch. Renters and landlords often want dependable curb appeal with minimal ongoing effort and predictable costs between tenants.
For many homeowners the goal is practical: reduce slippery walkways, keep drains flowing, and maintain tidy beds that survive wet winters and dry late summers. Sustainable practices—compost-amended beds, hand-weeding, mulching, and careful water management—work best here. We design quarterly visits to address seasonal debris, prune for sight lines and safety, and manage moss and ivy regrowth without synthetic herbicides. That approach protects soil life and reduces repeat visits while keeping properties safe and attractive for renters or sale-ready for buyers.
Our Quality Service
We focus on predictable, sustainable care tailored for Burien microclimates and slopes. Each visit prioritizes erosion control, safe walkways, and healthy soil structure. Benefits include improved curb appeal, fewer tenant complaints, safer yards, and lower long-term maintenance costs.
What’s Included
- Initial yard assessment and written plan
- Spring and fall deep clean (leaf removal, pruning, aeration)
- Two tune-ups (mowing, edging, targeted weeding)
- Mulch refresh using compost-friendly options
- Drain and slope checks to reduce runoff
Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + landscape fabric
- Organic weed control and compost top-dress
- Haul-away green waste or municipal green bin disposal
Before & After / Expectations
After service expect cleaner beds, reduced moss patches, and clearer walkways. For ongoing care: water new plantings sparingly in summer, pull young ivy roots early, rake leaves in heavy wet months to prevent mats, and top-dress beds with compost annually to discourage weeds.
