Burien Black dyed mulch installation
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a mix of heavy winter rain, clay‑rich soils, and shaded corners under mature maples and cedars. That combination leads to compaction, moss, and runoff on slopes, and it makes weed recovery fast after a cleanup. Landlords and homeowners want a tidy, low‑maintenance look that improves drainage and hides bare soil between plantings. Sustainable mulch helps retain moisture in summer, suppresses weeds without herbicides, and reduces erosion on small slopes common near Seahurst Park and along streets toward White Center.
Our Quality Service
We install recycled black‑dyed mulch evenly to a depth of 2-3 inches, working with grade and planting needs to slow runoff and hold moisture. We use sustainable practices only — no chemical herbicides — and prioritize locally appropriate methods that suit Burien microclimates. The result is safer, cleaner beds with improved curb appeal and less seasonal upkeep for landlords and busy homeowners.
What’s Included
- Site assessment and measurement.
- Removal of weeds, debris, and old mulch.
- Edging and bed definition for neat lines.
- Mulch installation to 2-3 inches depth for best coverage.
- Final cleanup and compost/green‑bin or haul‑away options.
Optional upgrades:
- Landscape fabric + mulch for extra weed suppression.
- Organic weed control (mechanical/organic foliar options only).
- Haul‑away versus green‑bin disposal.
Before & After / Expectations
After installation you’ll see instant contrast and cleaner beds; expect a settling period where mulch firms up and small dust settles. Water new beds lightly if a dry spell follows, and check slopes after heavy rain to ensure mulch hasn’t shifted. Watch for ivy and perennial weeds — pull or spot‑treat with organic methods to prevent regrowth.
FAQs
- How long will it take? Small beds take a few hours, larger yards a day or two depending on prep and access.
- Do you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, non‑chemical methods and organic options on request.
- What maintenance is needed? Annual refreshes or a light top‑up every 6–12 months keeps color and coverage looking sharp.
- Can you work on slopes and rental properties? Yes — we install edging and anchoring techniques for moderate slopes and coordinate with landlords on access.
