Burien landscape repair cost

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien properties face steady marine-influenced rain, cool summers, and soils that range from compacted urban fill to clay and peat in low spots. That combination leads to persistent moss, soggy lawns, shallow-rooted plants, and eroding slopes near parks or ravines. Many landlords and homeowners want low-maintenance yards that look tidy for tenants or curb appeal without weekly work.

Common challenges here include poor drainage along sidewalks, shaded corners under cedars that never dry, and ivy or blackberry regrowth on property edges. Sloped lots toward Seahurst Park or near White Center need erosion control and careful plant selection to avoid constant repairs. Owners usually want durable fixes that reduce future costs: better soil structure, targeted drainage, and mulches or native plantings that outcompete weeds sustainably.

Our Quality Service

We assess sun, slope, and soil to recommend repairs that hold up to local rain and runoff. Work focuses on mechanical and organic methods: hand-weeding, mulching, soil amendment, and installing low-maintenance drainage features.

Benefits include safer walkways, improved curb appeal, reduced ongoing labor, and long-lasting results that respect local ecosystems.

What’s Included

  • Full property assessment and written recommendations
  • Manual weed and ivy removal with composting or green-bin disposal
  • Mulch application and optional landscape fabric
  • Soil amendment: aeration, compost top-dress, and planting of hardy natives
  • Basic hardscape patching (edges, steps) and simple drainage fixes

Optional upgrades:

  • Organic weed-control follow-ups
  • Gravel paths or rain garden installation
  • Haul-away debris vs. green bin disposal

Before & After / Expectations

After repair, expect immediate visual improvements and better surface shedding of water. Plan simple seasonal care: light watering for new plants, annual mulch refresh, spot weed checks, and prompt ivy trimming to prevent regrowth.

FAQs

  • How long does a job take? Most small yards are 1 day; mid-size repairs may take 1–3 days depending on access and scope.
  • Do you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, non‑chemical methods only.
  • What about access and parking? We’ll confirm access and space for tools; tight driveways may require short-distance hauling.
  • When should I schedule repairs? Late spring through early fall is best for plant establishment, though drainage fixes can be done year-round.
