Burien Install landscape fabric

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien yards see a lot of rain, clay loam pockets, and shaded corners that invite moss, ivy, and stubborn weeds. Slopes near Boulevard Park and compacted soils in older lots make mulch sink and weeds poke through, so homeowners often want low-maintenance beds that look tidy year-round.

Heavy winter rains and poor drainage mean any solution must let water pass while suppressing regrowth. Typical owner goals are neat curb appeal, safer walkways, and less time spent pulling weeds — all without herbicides. We plan installations around slope, sun/shade patterns, and existing plantings to protect roots and reduce erosion.

Our Quality Service

We install breathable landscape fabric suited to wet Pacific Northwest conditions, securing edges and overlapping seams on slopes to reduce washout. Work includes careful hand-weeding, light soil leveling, and placement of mulch or decorative stone so plants get water while weeds are suppressed.

Benefits you’ll notice are improved safety on paths, cleaner beds for tenants or visitors, lower long-term upkeep, and long-lasting curb appeal. All methods are sustainable: physical weed control, organic options, and mulching — no chemical herbicides.

What’s Included

  • Site assessment and consultation tailored to slope and drainage
  • Hand weeding and debris removal
  • Soil prep and leveling
  • Landscape fabric installation with secure edging
  • Top layer of mulch or decorative stone as requested

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric combination
  • Organic weed-control follow-up (hand-weed and vinegar-free methods)
  • Haul-away of debris vs. green bin disposal

Before & After / Expectations

After installation expect cleaner beds and fewer weeds for seasons, but some edge growth and ivy regrowth may need spot attention. Re-mulch every 1–2 years to protect fabric and hide seams, and check slopes after heavy rains.

Care tips:

  • Water new plantings deeply but infrequently to encourage roots.
  • Pull any surface seedlings early before they root through mulch.
  • Treat moss by improving drainage and light exposure, not with chemicals.

FAQs

  • How long does a job take? Small beds are often one day; medium yards 1–2 days depending on prep.
  • Can you work on slopes? Yes — we secure fabric, add edging, and adapt mulch to prevent washout.
  • Will fabric harm my plants? No, we cut fabric for established plant roots and use breathable products so water and nutrients pass through.
  • Do you use herbicides? No — we use hand removal, organic methods, and mulching only.
