Burien Storm-damaged branch removal
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien properties face winter and spring storms that bring strong wind, heavy rain, and salt spray from Puget Sound. That combination often means fallen and broken branches, leaning limbs, blocked drains, and lawns smothered by debris. Many yards here sit on glacial soils with pockets of clay and compacted loam, plus slopes near Seahurst Park and pockets of shade that encourage moss and ivy regrowth. For landlords and homeowners the priorities are clear: remove hazards quickly for tenant safety, keep curb appeal for listings, and prevent drainage clogging that can worsen slope erosion.
Typical homeowner goals include quick cleanup before a showing or tenant move-in, choosing low-maintenance fixes that reduce repeat visits, and using sustainable disposal like chipping or composting. In Burien, timely branch removal also protects gutters, fences, and driveways from continuing damage. We focus on safety-first techniques and organic, non-chemical practices so your yard recovers cleanly and stays manageable between scheduled maintenance visits.
Our Quality Service
We assess damage with local conditions in mind — rain patterns, slope, and soil stability. Work is done safely from the ground and in-tree where required, using sustainable disposal: chipping for mulch, composting, or green-bin options. Benefits include improved safety, better drainage, stronger curb appeal, and long-lasting, low-maintenance results.

- Haul-away vs. green-bin / compostable disposal
Before & After / Expectations
After removal expect immediate visibility and safer access to yards and gutters. Re-growth of ivy or moss is common in shady, moist spots — plan for targeted, organic control. Water newly exposed roots lightly during dry spells and refresh mulch to suppress weeds. If a tree was damaged, consider a health check to reduce repeat failures.
Practical care tips:
- Water only during dry months; most Puget Sound yards don’t need regular irrigation.
- Pull small re-sprouts promptly to prevent larger regrowth.
- Apply wood-chip mulch to slopes to reduce erosion and retain moisture.
