Burien Prune trees for street clearance
Homeowner’s Issue
Overgrown street trees and large yard specimens in Burien can block sidewalks, signs, and sightlines. Our wet, mild winters and heavy fall rains promote fast branch growth and moss on trunks, while compacted clay pockets and sloped lots near Seahurst Park or the Highline make pruning and cleanup more frequent. Landlords and homeowners want safe, accessible streets and low-maintenance yards that still support trees. Regular, sustainable pruning keeps branches up off walkways, reduces storm damage risk, and preserves tree health without resorting to chemical treatments.
Our Quality Service
We prune to public-clearance standards and tree health, working around Burien’s rain patterns and common slopes. Work is done with hand tools and small power tools for precision, mulches and native plantings used to stabilize soil, and all clippings are processed for green-bin or haul-away. The result is safer sidewalks, improved curb appeal, and less follow-up work for owners.

Before & After / Expectations
