Burien String Trimming & Long Grass Care

Homeowner’s Issue

Long grass in Burien is more than an eyesore — the region’s mild, wet winters and quick spring green-up mean lawns and edges can overgrow fast. Many yards here have heavy, compacted marine soils, slopes toward gutters or alleys, and mixed sun/shade from native trees and sheltering homes. For landlords and homeowners, unmanaged grassy edges hide debris, invite moss and ivy regrowth, and worsen drainage on slopes. Rental properties need tidy, safe yards between tenants; homeowners want lower-maintenance borders that don’t trap water. Our local approach focuses on sustainable, mechanical trimming and cleanup (no herbicides), addressing steep spots, muddy run-off paths, and shaded corners common near Seahurst Park and the Highline corridor. The goal: safe, tidy edges that reduce pests, improve sight lines, and set up your yard for long-term low maintenance.

Our Quality Service

We assess slope, soil firmness, and shade before trimming, then use battery or low-emission trimmers for quiet, sustainable cuts. Work includes neat edging, targeted hand-weeding, and cleanup to prevent thatch and clumps. Results boost safety, curb appeal, and make future care easier.

What’s Included

  • String trimming of long grass and weeds
  • Defined edging along paths, driveways, and beds
  • Hand weeding in sensitive areas (no herbicides)
  • Clipping cleanup and haul-away or green bin option
  • Optional upgrades: mulch + fabric, organic weed control, extra haul-away

Before & After / Expectations

After service, keep trimmed areas clear of debris and check shaded corners for moss. Water newly exposed soil only if needed; mulching beds reduces regrowth. Expect ivy or perennial weeds to need repeat follow-ups if deeply rooted.

FAQs

  • How long does a job take? Small yards: 30–90 minutes; larger or overgrown yards take longer.
  • Do you use chemicals? No — we use manual, organic, and mechanical methods only.
  • What access do you need? Driveway or street parking and a short walk to the yard is fine.
