Burien Shaping Hedges
Homeowner’s Issue
Many Burien yards face frequent rain, seasonal wind, and pockets of deep shade that encourage moss and dense growth. Compacted soils and neighborhood slopes—especially near Seahurst Park and properties toward the sound—can slow drainage and cause hedges to become heavy at the base while thin on top. Renters, landlords, and homeowners often want tidy, low-maintenance hedges that improve curb appeal, keep sightlines clear, and reduce pest hiding places without turning into a seasonal chore.
Landlords need reliable, safe results between tenants; homeowners want durable shapes that survive winter storms and require minimal pruning. Common problems we see are overgrown hedges blocking walkways, sparse lower growth from lack of light, and ivy or moss re-establishing after cuts. Our approach focuses on sustainable practices—no herbicides, composting clippings, and options for mulch and fabric—to fit Burien yards and nearby microclimates.
Our Quality Service
We assess each hedge for slope, soil moisture, and sun exposure, then trim to encourage healthy, balanced growth. Work is done with sharp tools, careful pruning cuts, and clean edges to improve sightlines and safety. Benefits include improved curb appeal, lower ongoing maintenance, and longer-lasting hedges that handle West Seattle and White Center weather better.
