Burien Remove diseased branches
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien’s wet winters, shallow soils, and shaded microclimates around Seahurst Park and the Highline corridor create conditions where disease and decay can hide in your trees and shrubs. Damp bark, moss, and ivy can hold moisture against stems and encourage fungal infections, while steep driveways and slopes add risk when weak branches fail. Landlords and homeowners commonly report limb drop, increasing pest activity, and reduced curb appeal after long rainy spells.
Many properties in Burien need targeted pruning rather than heavy thinning; removing only the diseased wood protects structure and encourages natural healing. Owners want safe yards, low ongoing maintenance, and approaches that work with local conditions — not quick fixes. Sustainable practices are essential here: we avoid herbicides and focus on pruning, mulching, and organic care to strengthen plants over time and reduce repeat visits.

Before & After / Expectations
After pruning expect reduced foliage density in treated areas and visible wound callus over weeks. Water newly exposed roots during dry spells, remove competing ivy, and sweep gutters to prevent moisture buildup. Watch for moss regrowth and repeat light pruning the following spring if needed.
FAQs
- How long does a job take? Small yards often finish in a few hours; larger trees may require a day with follow-up checks.
- Do you use herbicides? No — we use sustainable, herbicide-free methods only.
