Burien Clear weeds near gates

Homeowner’s Issue

Gates and entryways in Burien collect weeds fast because of our mild, rainy winters and shaded corners. Heavy moss, ivy regrowth, and compacted clay or loamy soils near slopes or driveways make weeds stubborn and trip hazards more likely. Homeowners and landlords often want safe, tidy access, low-maintenance edges, and solutions that survive the next wet season without toxic chemicals.

Nearby spots like Seahurst Park and White Center show the same mossy, shaded conditions, so treatments that work there will suit local yards. The goal: clear entry paths, fix drainage or edging issues, and prevent quick returns with sustainable techniques that respect the neighborhood ecosystem.

Our Quality Service

We focus on hand tools, targeted mechanical removal, and organic controls that suit Burien’s rain and soil. We correct edges, improve drainage where needed, and add mulch or fabric to limit regrowth. Benefits include safer walkways, improved curb appeal, reduced maintenance, and longer-lasting results that stand up to local conditions.

What’s Included

  • Site assessment and problem diagnosis
  • Manual weeding and root removal
  • Edging along gates, paths, and beds
  • Mulch application and optional landscape fabric
  • Cleanup and haul-away or green bin disposal

Optional upgrades:

  • Organic granular or vinegar-based weed control
  • Soil amendment with compost
  • Gravel or stepping-stone installation

Before & After / Expectations

After service expect reduced regrowth for months when mulch and fabric are used. For shaded, mossy areas, occasional spot weeding and light rake work will be needed. Water newly amended spots lightly, and avoid overwatering shaded edges to limit moss.

FAQs

  • How long will it take? Small gate areas are usually one visit; larger runs vary with access and slope.
  • Do you use herbicides? We use sustainable, non-chemical methods and organic options on request.
  • What about disposal? Choose haul-away or green bin composting depending on debris.
  • Can you improve drainage? Yes — simple grading or adding gravel can reduce future weed problems.
