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
Extending your living space into the great outdoors requires the expertise of a skilled outdoor design professional. Our outdoor design specialists are trained to evaluate your property and recommend the materials and furnishings that will withstand exposure to rain, humidity, and other harsh elements. After all, northwestern Oregon and western Washington are the two wettest areas of the lower 48 states. Here are some specific steps we take to build an outdoor living area that will stand the test of time:
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.
1. YOU CONTACT US WITH THE DETAILS OF YOUR PROJECT.
Fill out the form on our website to share some information about your property and the type of work you'd like completed. After reviewing the details on your submitted form, we get back to you within one business day to schedule an appointment, usually about a week out. We'll email you a pre-meeting document, so you'll know what to expect.
2. DESIGN CONSULTATION.
Your landscape designer will meet you at your property, discuss your wishes for the project, take measurements and record detailed notes about your property and project wish list. The designer you meet for the consultation will be your primary point of contact and project manager for the duration of your project.
3. PERSONALIZED DESIGN BID.
Within 24 hours of your on-site consultation, we'll send you a personalized design bid. The average project is around $1,500, depending on the size of your project. Payment for landscape design is due upfront. Upon acceptance of the bid, you'll receive a contract that you can sign online. Once the contract is signed, we get started on your design right away. 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.
4. LANDSCAPE INSTALLATION BID & AGREEMENT.
Around 1-2 weeks after your design is approved, you'll receive your landscape installation bid & agreement. A 50% deposit is required at this time to secure materials and schedule the crew.
5. WORK BEGINS!
After all the paperwork is signed, our maintenance or construction crew begins work on your property. The landscape installation phase typically takes about a month, depending on the time of year. We'll show up daily (weather permitting) to work on your project until completion.
6. IT'S TIME FOR THE BIG REVEAL!
When your project is complete, we'll walk the property together to ensure you're delighted with every detail. Final payment is due at this time.
7. WE STAND BEHIND OUR WORK.
We stand behind our work with a 5-year warranty on hardscapes (installation defects), 1-year warranty on irrigation, and 90 days on plantings that are irrigated. We also offer customized maintenance plans to fit your needs. If you choose a maintenance plan, your planting warranty will be covered for 1 year.
If you love the look of any of our projects, contact us today! We can help renovate your landscape with maintenance, design, and installation services.
