Burien Weeding flagstone walkways
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien’s mild, wet winters and cool summers make moss and weeds thrive between flagstones. Clay-rich patches and compacted urban soils on slopes or near downspouts hold moisture, encouraging regrowth and slippery surfaces. Homeowners and landlords often want safe, tidy walkways that lower maintenance and keep rental units attractive without chemical herbicides. Typical goals are improved curb appeal, fewer trips and slips, and a simpler care routine that fits local conditions around Seahurst Park and the Highline area.
Our Quality Service
We use hands-on, sustainable methods tailored to Burien microclimates: careful hand-pulling, steam or hot-water where appropriate, brushing, and targeted organic treatments. We focus on stabilizing joints and improving drainage so plants don’t return quickly. That means safer paths, cleaner edges, and long-lasting results that cut back on repeat visits.
What’s Included
- Site assessment and discussion of goals
- Manual weed removal and joint detail
- Brushing or pressure rinsing of stones
- Joint refilling with sand, gravel, or polymeric substitute (if requested)
- Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + landscape fabric at edges
- Organic, non-chemical weed suppression
- Haul-away vs. green bin disposal
Before & After / Expectations
After service, expect cleaner seams and reduced regrowth for months. To keep results: sweep monthly, avoid overwatering near paths, and reapply joint material annually. For ivy or persistent moss, repeat spot treatments using steam or hand removal as needed.
FAQs
- How long does a job take? Most residential walkways finish in 1–3 hours depending on length and regrowth.
- Do you use chemicals? We use sustainable, non-herbicide methods only.
- Is access required? Yes—clear a 3–4 ft work corridor and remove fragile decor before arrival.
