Burien General brush clearing
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards and rental properties see a lot of growth thanks to our mild, wet climate. Heavy winter and spring rains encourage quick regrowth, moss in shady spots, and slippery trails on sloped lots. Many properties near Seahurst Park and Normandy Park have steep micro-slopes, clay pockets, or poor surface drainage that let brush take over, hide drainage problems, and create tripping hazards. Landlords and homeowners often want a tidy, low-maintenance yard for renters or resale, but they face recurring ivy, blackberry, and invasive vine regrowth. Our approach focuses on clearing problem areas while addressing erosion, improving sight lines, and reducing routine upkeep so yards stay safer and more attractive between services.
Our Quality Service
We clear brush with hand tools, small machinery, and chippers to limit soil disturbance and reduce erosion on slopes. All work follows sustainable practices—no herbicides—using mulching, chipping, and green-waste recycling to return material to the landscape or compost stream. The benefits are clear: safer access, better drainage, improved curb appeal, and lower long-term maintenance for busy owners.
What’s Included
- Property assessment and slope/drainage notes
- Hand-cutting of brush, small-tree removal, and selective pruning
- Chipping, hauling, or green-bin disposal of cleared material
- Raking, edging, and basic clean-up
Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + landscape fabric installation
- Organic weed control and follow-up spot clearing
- Haul-away vs. green-bin disposal (your choice)
Before & After / Expectations
After clearing expect increased light, fewer pest harborage spots, and clearer drainage lines. New growth is normal—plan follow-up tune-ups in spring or early fall. Simple care tips:
- Water established plants only; avoid overwatering bare soil.
- Patrol for ivy and blackberry regrowth every 4–8 weeks.
- Use mulch to suppress weeds and retain moisture on slopes.
FAQs
- How long does a job take? Small yards can be done in a half-day; larger or steep sites take a day or two.
- Do you use chemicals? No herbicides — we use manual/removal, mulching, and organic options.
- Will you haul debris? Yes — choose haul-away or green-bin disposal during the estimate.
- How often should I schedule maintenance? Quarterly or bi-monthly keeps properties tidy; monthly for high-visibility rentals.
