Burien Hand pull broadleaf weeds
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien properties face a mix of challenges: heavy fall and winter rain, compacted glacial soils in some yards, shady slopes and moss-prone lawns near Seahurst Park, and areas that hold runoff. Broadleaf weeds — dandelion, plantain, clover, and creeping buttercup — compete with lawns and garden plants for nutrients and water, and they can make rental yards look neglected. For landlords and homeowners, the goal is a tidy, low-maintenance landscape that withstands seasonal wetness without relying on chemicals. Hand pulling is a practical, sustainable approach that addresses roots, reduces seed spread, and avoids harming pollinators and waterways. With regular attention and the right follow-up, most Burien yards stay healthy with less effort and lower long-term cost.

Before & After / Expectations
After service expect immediate visual improvement and fewer visible weeds for weeks to months depending on seed bank and season.
