Burien Demolition debris cleanup
Homeowner’s Issue
Small lots, heavy seasonal rain, and clayey soils make demolition cleanup in Burien more than a hauling job. Fallen timbers, concrete rubble, and exposed soil can block drains, trap moisture against foundations, and invite moss and invasive ivy into nearby planting beds. Owners and landlords often want quick clearance that also prevents erosion on slopes and avoids repeat visits in the wet season.
Local constraints — close neighbors, city permitting, and limited curbside space — mean careful sorting on-site and responsible disposal are essential. We account for rain, grade, and shade when planning removal and immediate repairs to keep the site safe and legible for tenants or future work.
Our Quality Service
We sort materials for recycling, salvage, composting, or green-bin disposal and avoid chemical treatments. Work is staged to limit mud tracking and erosion on slopes near Saltwater State Park or toward Des Moines, and we protect remaining lawns and plantings during removal.
Benefits include improved safety, restored curb appeal, reduced maintenance, and outcomes designed to last through Seattle-area rains.
