Burien Remove unwanted plants
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards deal with a wet coastal climate, shade from tall evergreens, compacted soils, and many sloped lots that concentrate water. Heavy winter and spring rains mean weeds, moss, and vigorous invasive roots return quickly, while shoreline wind and salt exposure affect plant choices near the Sound. Landlords and homeowners often want low-maintenance, safe landscapes that stay tidy between tenant turnovers or busy schedules. We focus on identifying problem species (ivy, blackberry, aggressive perennials), assessing drainage and slope risks, and matching solutions to your goals — whether you want a clean rental yard, pollinator-friendly plantings, or a low-water, low-work front border. Our methods prioritize hand-removal, mechanical root extraction, mulching, and organic controls to prevent regrowth without herbicides.
