Burien Tile Disposal
Homeowner’s Issue
Many Burien yards sit on compacted, rain-affected soils with slopes and surface drainage issues that make tile removal messy and potentially damaging if done casually. Heavy winter rains, moss buildup on shaded pavers, and root intrusion under tiled areas are common, and tiles left in place can trap water against foundations or create trip hazards. Landlords and homeowners often want quick, clean results without harming soil health or creating ongoing maintenance burdens.
Property goals usually include improving drainage, restoring usable garden or patio space, and preparing the area for new surfacing or planting. Sustainable practices matter here: salvaging reusable tile, recycling ceramic or concrete fragments, and keeping organics out of landfill reduce waste and protect urban soils. Nearby spots like Seahurst Park and White Center face similar coastal-soil challenges, so local experience with wet-site work and timing around seasonal storms makes a difference.
Our Quality Service
We remove tiles safely with care for slopes, drainage channels, and existing plantings. Work includes sorting reusable pieces, recycling where possible, and using no herbicides — only organic, physical methods for cleanup. Benefits include improved safety, better curb appeal, reduced future maintenance, and long-lasting results that respect soil structure.
What’s Included
- Onsite assessment and volume estimate
- Careful tile removal and sorting for reuse/recycling
- Load-out and transport to recycling or approved disposal
- Site cleanup and basic grading for drainage
- Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + landscape fabric

Before & After / Expectations
Expect a cleaner, safer surface and improved drainage after work. For revegetated or planted areas we recommend slow, deep watering in dry months, regular pull-weeding to prevent regrowth, and persistent ivy removal by hand to avoid recurrence. Mulch and fabric help suppress weeds and stabilize soil on slopes.
