Burien Palm tree pruning
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a Pacific Northwest mix of wet winters, mild summers, and shady microclimates. Many properties have compacted, clayey soils with poor drainage, slopes that concentrate runoff, and winds off Puget Sound that stress taller palms. Homeowners and landlords often want safe, tidy palms without adding chemical inputs or constant upkeep.
Common problems are dead fronds accumulating as hazards, pest or fungal issues hiding under debris, and palms that obscure sight lines on driveways or paths. Rental properties and hillside lots near Seahurst Park or neighborhoods toward White Center need pruning that reduces storm risk, prevents frond drop, and keeps properties renter-ready. Sustainable pruning—clean cuts, manual debris removal, organic fertilizer and mulch—fits local goals: safer yards, better curb appeal, and lower long-term maintenance.
