Burien Office park grass and bed trim
Homeowner’s Issue
Office parks and rental properties in Burien face a specific set of challenges: frequent winter rain, persistent shade in north-facing corners, compacted soils in high-traffic zones, and moss or ivy in low-light beds. Sloped areas near Seahurst Park and around Lake Burien can channel runoff, creating drainage and erosion spots that make trimming and edging harder and increase weed pressure. Landlords and homeowners want tidy, safe grounds that don’t demand constant attention between service visits. They’re looking for solutions that control moss and invasive plants without chemicals, improve curb appeal for tenants or clients, and reduce slip and trip hazards on walkways. Sustainable practices—hand weeding, organic mulch, fabric where appropriate, mechanical edging, and targeted aeration—work best in our local climate. Done right, these approaches slow regrowth, improve soil structure, and give long-lasting, low-maintenance results that fit property budgets and municipal green waste rules.
Our Quality Service
We focus on sustainable, practical work that suits Burien’s rain-first climate and common site conditions like slopes and compacted beds. Our crew trims grass to encourage healthy turf, edges paths for a clean look, and removes weeds and moss by hand or mechanical means—no herbicides. We use organic mulch and compost top-ups to improve moisture retention and suppress regrowth, and we recommend drainage adjustments or soil amendments on sloped sites. Results are safer pathways, better curb appeal, and lower maintenance needs between visits.

Before & After / Expectations
- Watering: after heavy mulches or plantings, keep new beds lightly moist for 1–2 weeks.
- Weeds & regrowth: expect some regrowth after removal; hand-pull or spot-manage monthly early in the season.
- Moss: reduce by improving drainage, increasing light where possible, and mechanical removal; follow-up visits keep it from returning.
- Ivy and aggressive vines: full removal may take multiple visits; we’ll recommend a plan and disposal method (haul-away vs. green bin).
FAQs
- How long does a visit take? Most office park trims run 1–3 hours depending on size and scope; we give a time estimate with every quote.
- Do you use herbicides? No — we employ sustainable, non-chemical methods: hand-pulling, mechanical removal, mulching, and organic soil work.
- What access do you need? Clear pedestrian access and a nearby parking spot are helpful; we can coordinate limited access with managers or tenants.
