Burien Storm debris cleanup
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien properties face frequent wet, windy winters that drop branches, needles, and leaves into yards and gutters. Many homes sit on slopes or near mature evergreens, which increases debris in low spots and slows drainage. Heavy rains compact the topsoil in some spots and encourage moss and ivy regrowth where shade and moisture persist. For landlords, rental turnover, curb appeal, and tenant safety become immediate concerns after a storm. Homeowners often want quick, sustainable cleanup that prevents clogged drains, reduces slip hazards, and limits repeat work. Goals usually include restoring safe walkways and access, protecting planted beds, and choosing low-maintenance fixes that fit Burien’s climate — from Seahurst Park waterfront microclimates to sunnier exposed ridgelines. Sustainable practices like composting, mulching, and green‑bin disposal keep organic waste out of the landfill while improving soil health for the long term.
Our Quality Service
We assess how rain, slope, and soil affect debris patterns and plan cleanup that reduces future problems. Work focuses on safe removal of loose material, selective pruning of damaged growth, and stabilizing beds with mulch or fabric where appropriate.
Benefits include improved safety, immediate curb appeal, and lower upkeep over time through sustainable, no-herbicide methods.
What’s Included
- Full debris collection (branches, leaves, organic litter)
- Clearing driveways, gutters, and access paths
- Light pruning of broken or hazardous limbs
- Raking and bed cleanup, composting or green‑bin preparation
- Optional upgrades: mulch + landscape fabric, organic weed control, planting, haul-away vs. green‑bin disposal
Before & After / Expectations
After we finish, expect tidier beds and clearer drainage paths. For the first month watch for settling debris and re-clearing gutters after heavy rains. To keep results:
- Water new mulch lightly to settle it.
- Pull new ivy or knotweed early; persistent vines may need repeated follow-ups.
- In shady, moist spots expect moss to reappear—improving airflow and light reduces it.
