Your yard is an important extension of your home, and you should be able to enjoy it. Frequent rains in Portland don’t mean you have to live with a muddy yard. In fact, it’s likely a problem that proper irrigation can fix.

Here’s the deal: We don’t do contracts. We earn your business on every visit. We want you to be totally thrilled with our service. So absolutely delighted that you will recommend us to your friends and neighbors. Frankly, we want to take care of your lawn forever.

Simple Lawns
Simple Lawns and Landscape Design is a full-service landscaping company that meets all the landscaping needs of residents and business owners in Portland, Oregon, and the surrounding areas. With years of experience working in the local climate and terrain, our team is familiar with the challenges of irrigation in Portland. Healthy lawns and landscapes begin from the ground up, and your unique landscape may need a customized irrigation repair for balanced hydration. In addition, our team is prepared to design and install a modern irrigation system for your unique residential or business landscape that will improve the health of your turf and help you conserve water.
Older, outdated irrigation systems often work inefficiently, providing too much water in some areas and not enough in others. This results in a landscape with patchy growth and muddy areas. Additionally, aging systems are often riddled with small leaks that waste hundreds or even thousands of gallons of water each year. A modern, efficient irrigation system customized to the individual needs of your landscape provides you with a naturally healthy landscape that requires less maintenance and work from you. Here are a few benefits of seeking irrigation repair or replacement from the Simple Lawns team.
An initial service fee of $150 will be charged for one-way travel and the first hour at the job. Every additional hour of work will be billed at $75/hr per crew member, plus parts.
As a property owner, making major changes to your landscape can be a little intimidating. Inviting a group of strangers onto your property can feel like a leap of faith that leaves you in the dark until the project is complete. We want our customers to feel comfortable (and even excited) about the entire process. That’s why we provide frequent communication and keep you informed with as many details as possible. Here’s what you can expect when you contact Simple Lawns to take care of your landscaping project.

You receive your initial design within 2-4 weeks. The design is to spec with a booklet of all details including material choices and layout including your drainage, hardscaping, irrigation, and more. One round of revisions is available, if necessary, to perfect your design.
