Burien Cut back overgrown hedges

Homeowner’s Issue

Overgrown hedges in Burien are common thanks to wet winters, quick spring growth, and heavy shade in low-lying yards. Dense, untrimmed hedges trap moisture against foundations, create moss and ivy pressure, and can block sightlines on sloped driveways or near sidewalks. Many homes near Seahurst Park and the Highline area have mixed soils — clay pockets that hold water and sandy patches that dry fast — so timing cuts and managing clippings matters. Landlords and homeowners often want tidy curb appeal, safer walkways, and lower maintenance without turning to harsh chemicals. Sustainable pruning, careful shaping, and removing material responsibly keep hedges healthy and reduce repeat visits later. The goal is to restore shape, improve light and airflow, and set hedges up for lower-maintenance growth through mulch, composting, and manual weed control.

Our Quality Service

We assess growth, prune to a sustainable shape, and clear debris with attention to local rain and slope. Work is done to promote airflow, reduce root rot risk, and limit regrowth of invasive ivy or moss. Benefits include safer sightlines, improved curb appeal, and long-lasting results that cut down future upkeep.

What’s Included

  • Assessment and recommended pruning plan
  • Trimming and shaping of hedges
  • Base weeding and light edging
  • Debris haul-away or green‑bin drop-off (your choice)
  • Optional upgrades: mulch + fabric, organic weed control, compost top-dress

Before & After / Expectations

After service expect cleaner sightlines, less moss at the base, and a defined hedge line. Care tips: water new cuts only in dry spells, pull regrowing ivy by hand, refresh mulch yearly, and spot-prune fast-growing varieties.

FAQs

  • How long does one job take? Small yards: 1–3 hours; larger properties vary.
  • Do you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, non‑chemical methods only.
  • Can you haul clippings away? Yes — choose haul-away or green bin disposal.
