Set It and Forget It
Want your yard to look fantastic all year round without sacrificing weekends? At Neat & Tidy, we specialize in maintaining Ballard properties effortlessly. Our routine visits prevent overgrowth, manage leaf and needle buildup, and keep your garden beds looking sharp.
What’s the Problem?

- Invasive plants like blackberry, ivy, and bamboo creeping back in
- Slippery walkways & clogged drains after those rainy Ballard days
- Overgrown shrubs and tree limbs blocking views or rubbing against your siding
- Busy lifestyle or tight driveways with no time to spare—we’ve got you covered!
Our Annual Maintenance Plan
Here’s how we keep your yard in top shape:
- Quick Assessment & Schedule — We’ll conduct an on-site visit or review your photos to set up your maintenance frequency. Expect this to take about 30 minutes.
- Clear & Sort Every Visit — We start by removing leaves, needles, brush, and debris to create a clean foundation. This typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on your yard’s size.
- Root-Level Weeding — We target the roots to slow the regrowth of pesky weeds, using tools like hand trowels and weeders.
- Selective Pruning — We trim your shrubs and trees for health and visibility, ensuring no limbs hang too low.
- Edge & Re-Shape Beds — Crisp lines and clean borders enhance your garden’s aesthetics.
- Mulch or Gravel Top-Up (as needed) — We apply a 2–3” layer for weed suppression and moisture retention, using high-quality organic mulch or decorative gravel.
- Lawn Refresh (optional) — Seasonal aeration plus mowing and edging for a lush lawn.
- Eco-Friendly Haul-Off — We compost and recycle debris at approved facilities, reducing landfill waste.
- Final Clean — We blow off patios, walks, and driveways so everything looks neat and tidy.
We’re all about low-maintenance landscaping. Our goal is to minimize your workload while keeping your yard healthy between visits.
