Burien replant storm damaged beds
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards take a beating from big winter rains and wind. Saturated soil, washed mulch, uprooted perennials, moss in shady corners, and slope erosion near parks like Seahurst can make beds look worse after a storm. Many Burien homeowners and landlords want quick restoration that prevents repeat damage, keeps tenants safe, and reduces maintenance visits.
Sloped front yards and compacted, silty soils hold water and can push plants loose; heavy canopy from large evergreens increases shade and moss. Goals usually focus on safety, curb appeal for rental turnover, and sustainable choices that cut water and upkeep. With targeted soil repair, plant selection, and mulch, you can stabilize beds and get long-lasting results without chemicals.

Before & After / Expectations
After replanting expect firm rootbeds and a refreshed look within a day or two. New plants need a few weeks of close attention: water to establish roots, check for exposed roots after heavy rain, and pull weeds early. Moss and ivy regrowth is common in shady pockets; manage with light thinning, raking, and organic removal rather than herbicides.
