Burien Ornamental Pruning
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face heavy winter rain, compacted marine soils, and mixed sun and deep shade from evergreen neighbors. Slopes toward Puget Sound or local streets can cause poor drainage and moss growth, while fast-growing ornamentals and ivy quickly become overgrown. Landlords and homeowners often want safer branches cleared, improved sightlines for tenants, and lower-maintenance beds that survive wet winters without chemical treatments. Sustainable pruning and light reshaping reduce excess growth, improve airflow, and help plants tolerate our cool, wet summers near Seahurst Park and Normandy Park. This keeps properties tidy, reduces runoff issues, and lowers long-term upkeep.
Our Quality Service
We prune using hand tools and selective cuts that respect plant health and local growth patterns. Work is chemical-free and focused on long-term structure, not short-term shaping. The result is safer branches, improved drainage, and a more attractive, resilient landscape that needs less frequent intervention.

Before & After / Expectations
