Burien Blow out garage/driveway edges

Homeowner’s Issue

Driveway and garage edge blowouts are common around Burien after heavy fall and winter rains. Compacted soils, patchy lawns, moss in shaded corners, and runoff from sloped driveways eat away at edges and create messy, unsafe gaps. Renters and homeowners want low-maintenance fixes that hold up through repeated wet seasons and occasional dry summer stretches. Properties near Seahurst Park, Highline neighborhoods, and hillside lots often need extra attention to drainage, soil compaction, and root intrusion from ivy or nearby plantings. Landlords need quick, lasting solutions between tenancies; homeowners want reliable curb appeal without constant upkeep. Sustainable, non-chemical approaches—hand-weeding, mechanical edging, mulch and landscape fabric, and adding gravel or soil where needed—work best here to reduce repeat visits and protect local waterways.

Our Quality Service

We assess runoff patterns and soil on arrival, then use mechanical edging, hand tools, and properly sized gravel or topsoil to rebuild edges. We focus on sustainable methods only: no herbicides, just organic weed control, mulches, and fabric where appropriate. Results improve safety, reduce tripping hazards, and give a cleaner look that lasts through Burien’s rainy months.

What’s Included

  • Debris clearance along garage and driveway edges
  • Mechanical edging and hand-trim weeding
  • Soil or gravel restoration and light compaction
  • Optional: mulch + fabric, organic weed control
  • Disposal: haul-away or green bin option

Before & After / Expectations

After service expect immediate cleaner lines and improved drainage. For upkeep: rake moss lightly, pull new ivy shoots by hand, refresh mulch annually, and re-edge in fall to prevent winter blowouts.

FAQs

  • Timeline: Most single-driveway jobs finish in 1–3 hours depending on condition.
  • Access: We need driveway access and a short water source for cleanup when possible.
  • Maintenance cadence: Quarterly or bi-monthly visits suit most Burien properties; rentals may prefer monthly.
  • Disposal: Choose green-bin composting for organic matter or haul-away for mixed debris.
