Burien Annual Shrub Trimming Service

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien yards see a lot of rain, cloudy stretches, and the occasional sun break, which makes shrubs grow fast and uneven. Heavy clay and compacted soils, plus slopes near Seahurst Park and pockets in Olde Burien, can cause poor drainage and moss or ivy takeover if shrubs aren’t managed. For landlords and homeowners, unchecked growth reduces curb appeal, blocks sightlines for parking and walkways, and hides pests or rot. Our approach balances tenant turnover schedules, rental curb appeal needs, and long-term plant health so your landscape stays tidy with lower maintenance between visits.

Our Quality Service

We prune to shape and thin shrubs for airflow, reduce weight on wet branches, and improve sightlines on slopes. Work is done with hand tools and electric trimmers, timed to each plant’s best pruning season to limit stress. Everything we do follows sustainable practices—no herbicides—focusing on mulch, soil care, and organic weed control to keep beds healthy and low-maintenance long term.

What’s Included

Assessment and pruning/shaping
Deadwood and debris removal
Bed edging and light weeding (manual)
Optional mulch + fabric installation
Optional organic weed control
Haul-away or green‑bin disposal options

Before & After / Expectations

After trimming, expect cleaner sightlines, less leaf litter, and reduced moss growth in shady spots. Water new cuts lightly during dry spells; monitor for regrowth of ivy and perennial weeds, and refresh mulch annually to suppress sprouts.
