Burien Outdoor Lighting Check
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face long, wet winters, short daylight hours, and shady microclimates from big evergreens and maples. That combination leads to slippery paths, mossy steps, and faded landscape accents — all safety and curb-appeal concerns for owners and landlords who rent in nearby neighborhoods like Seahurst Park and Normandy Park. Soil tends to be compacted in older lots and slopes toward the street or drainage swales, so fixtures and wiring need care to avoid pooling and runoff damage. Homeowners and landlords often want low-maintenance solutions that cut energy use, resist corrosion from coastal moisture, and keep rental units safe and attractive without frequent upkeep. A focused lighting check addresses placement, bulb type, fixture seals, and wiring while prioritizing sustainable practices and minimal landscape disturbance.
Our Quality Service
We assess placement relative to slopes, drainage, and shade, then propose a plan using energy-efficient LEDs and durable, weather-rated fixtures. Installation and repairs are done to minimize trenching, protect plantings, and avoid compaction. We use sustainable practices only (no herbicides), and offer maintenance schedules tuned to rainy-season checks.
