White Center replace worn turf edges — Landscape Repair
Homeowner’s Issue
In White Center we get a lot of rain, heavy soils, and shady corners that turn lawn edges into mud-traps or ragged, thin strips. Clay and compacted topsoil, plus slopes on older lots, push water toward sidewalks and beds, washing out edges where people walk or drop leaves. Sun exposure varies block to block — some yards soak up sun and dry out, others sit damp under big evergreens, encouraging moss and uneven turf.
Homeowners ask for Landscape Repair that fixes recurring problems: soggy margins, tripping edges, invading weeds, and lawns that look unkempt from the street. Curb appeal matters here — from the approach to Roxhill and toward West Seattle or Burien, a clean edge reads as a cared-for property. Most folks want low-maintenance solutions that handle our rainfall, improve drainage on slopes, and reduce weekly upkeep. We use sustainable methods only (no herbicides), focus on better soil, smart grading, and practical edging that lasts through wet winters and dry summers.
Our Quality Service
We assess the edge conditions, soil compaction, sun/shade patterns, and how rain flows across your yard. Then we:
- Re-cut or remove worn turf and address drainage where edges keep washing out.
- Reinstall sod or seed with proper soil prep and organic amendments.
- Install practical edging (steel, stone, or mulch band with fabric) that fits the look of your home.
- Use sustainable practices—no herbicides—so your yard stays safe for kids and pets.
Benefits: safer walkways, better curb appeal, reduced maintenance, and longer-lasting results that handle White Center’s rainfall and slopes.

Before & After / Expectations

Care tips:
- Water new sod lightly and frequently for the first 2 weeks, then taper.
