When preparing a home for sale, a well-maintained and visually appealing yard can make all the difference. At Lee’s General Landscaping, we provide professional yard cleanup, mulching, and hardscaping services to ensure properties are market-ready. A recent inquiry from a Burien real estate assistant highlights the value of an outdoor refresh before listing.
Customer Query: Yard Cleanup and Patio Bid for a Market-Ready Home
“We’re looking for your earliest availability for a thorough yard cleanup. The property has overgrown shrubs that need trimming or removal, fresh bark installation is a must, and we’d like a bid on hardscape patio work. This is for a house going on the market within two weeks, and I’m assisting the realtor with the project.”
Our Recommendations for Burien Properties
1. Comprehensive Yard Cleanup
A tidy and well-groomed yard is essential to create a great first impression for potential buyers. For this project, we suggest:
- Shrub Pruning and Removal: Clean up overgrown areas to create a polished, inviting look.
- Debris Removal: Eliminate leaves, branches, and other clutter for a clean slate.
2. Bark Installation
Fresh bark not only enhances aesthetics but also provides practical benefits:
- Weed Suppression: Keeps the yard looking tidy between showings.
- Moisture Retention: Maintains soil health and reduces maintenance needs.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Adds a neat, uniform finish that’s attractive to potential buyers.
3. Hardscape Patio Design and Installation
Adding or improving a patio can elevate the home’s functionality and appeal. We recommend:
- Material Options: Concrete pavers, stamped concrete, or natural stone for durability and style.
- Custom Design: A simple, elegant layout that complements the property and increases value.
- Weather-Resistant Features: Ensure longevity, especially in Burien’s rainy climate.
Tips for Burien’s Climate
Burien’s mild but wet weather can lead to overgrowth and drainage issues. A professional cleanup, proper mulching, and durable hardscaping materials ensure the yard looks pristine for open houses, rain or shine.
