Exceptional Craftsmanship By Trained Professionals
Extending your living space into the great outdoors requires the expertise of a skilled outdoor design professional.

- A Forward-Thinking Approach: Choosing decking, fencing, fabrics, and furnishings that will still look and feel great in a decade is a top priority.
- Selection of Durable Materials: We suggest attractive furnishings made of durable rust-proof aluminum, resin wicker, and powder-coated steel.
- Careful Color Selection: Our technicians know the colors that are prone to fading as well as those that maintain their luster year after year.
- Owner Oversight: Simple Lawns' founder, Vitaly Aspidov, is actively involved in every project to ensure your satisfaction.
- Professional Maintenance Services: Our maintenance technicians can keep your outdoor living area looking great all year long.
