Burien Remove landscaping plants
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards face a lot of moisture, shade from tall evergreens, and compacted coastal soils that encourage moss, ivy, and persistent weeds. Slopes near Seahurst Park and older properties around White Center can have drainage issues and plants that re-root quickly after a cut, leaving homeowners frustrated with repeat growth.
Homeowners and landlords want tidy, safe outdoor spaces that don’t demand weekly work. You may be balancing renters, curb appeal for resale, or simple desire for a low-maintenance yard that handles winter rain without slippage or clogged drains.
Good removal starts with the right techniques for our local rainfall and soil — hand-pulling, careful root removal, and organic soil improvement rather than quick chemical fixes. The goal is durable results that reduce future trips to the yard and keep irrigation and drainage working as intended.
Our Quality Service
We remove unwanted landscaping with sustainable, hands-on methods that suit Burien’s wet, shady conditions. We use hand tools, targeted digging, and sheet-mulch techniques to suppress regrowth, and we do not use herbicides.
Benefits include improved safety on slopes, better curb appeal for tenants or buyers, and less time spent on repeat weeding. We prioritize composting and green-bin disposal to keep yard waste out of landfills.

Before & After / Expectations
Expect lower regrowth when roots are removed and beds are mulched or amended. Plan for follow-up visits in the first season to catch any regrowth from persistent ivy or runners.
Care tips:
- Water new beds lightly in dry spells; heavy rains are common here so avoid overwatering.
- Pull young shoots early — they’re easier to remove by hand.
- Reapply mulch yearly and monitor shady areas for moss; rake and thin shade if possible.
