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:

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.
