Burien Spring Fertilizer Application

Homeowner’s Issue

In Burien the long, wet winters and spring drizzles leave lawns thin and moss-prone, while summer brings drier spells that stress shallow roots. Heavy soil pockets, compacted areas on slopes, and north-facing shade under big maples or cedars around Lake Burien Park and White Center create uneven growth and drainage challenges. Landlords and homeowners want durable, low-maintenance lawns that stay green for tenants and curb appeal without frequent chemical fixes. We focus on improving soil structure, encouraging deep roots, and reducing moss and weeds through sustainable, organic practices that fit local microclimates and slope conditions. That means compost topdressing, slow-release organic fertilizer, targeted aeration, and hand or mechanical weed control—no herbicides—so your yard recovers fully and needs fewer repeat visits.

Our Quality Service

We test soil, match an organic or slow-release formula to the results, and apply evenly with professional spreaders. Work is timed for spring growth windows and adjusted for slope and drainage to reduce runoff. Benefits include safer surfaces, better curb appeal, and lower ongoing maintenance for rental turnovers or homeowner upkeep.

What’s Included

  • Soil testing and recommendations
  • Organic or slow-release fertilizer application
  • Optional aeration and compost topdressing
  • Manual or organic weed control (no herbicides)
  • Trim, edge, and cleanup

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric
  • Organic weed-control treatments
  • Haul-away or green bin disposal

Before & After / Expectations

After service expect greener growth in 2–4 weeks and stronger roots by mid-season. Control moss by improving drainage and sunlight; pull ivy and persistent weeds early. Water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep rooting.

FAQs

  • How long does it take? Typical visits are 60–90 minutes for an average yard; testing adds a few days for lab results.
  • Do you use chemicals? We use organic and slow-release products only—no herbicides.
  • What access do you need? Clear walkways and any gated areas; we can coordinate with tenants or landlords for access.
