Landscaping in Portland That Handles Oregon Weather

Planting, Lawns and Irrigation for City Lots

Many Portland homes sit on compact lots with mature street trees, older foundation plantings and lawns that have thinned out under shade. We plan landscapes around those conditions: shade-tolerant plantings, fresh sod where the old lawn has given up, and garden beds that fit the space you actually have.

Portland gets most of its rain between fall and spring, then goes months with very little. A properly zoned sprinkler system keeps new plantings alive through July and August, and French drains move winter water away from soggy lawns, basements and low spots before it becomes a problem.

Patios, Walkways, Retaining Walls and Fences

Hardscaping turns a small Portland backyard into space you can use year round. We build paver patios and walkways on a compacted base so they stay level through wet winters, retaining walls that hold back sloped yards, and fences that give you privacy from close neighbors.

Once the work is done, we can keep it looking right with scheduled landscape maintenance and seasonal yard cleanups, including leaf removal after the fall drop.
