Evergreen Scapes has been designing, building, and maintaining Portland-area landscapes since 2012. Every service below is performed by our own licensed and insured crews — no subcontractors passing through your yard. Whether you need a single seasonal cleanup or a full design-build project, we scope the work honestly and back it with a free estimate.
Our landscape design process starts with how you actually want to use your yard — entertaining, gardening, or simply low-maintenance curb appeal. We sketch full planting and hardscape plans tailored to Portland's rainfall and soil, then walk you through plant palettes, sightlines, and phasing before a single shovel goes in the ground. Landscape design in Portland means planning for wet winters and dry summers alike, and every plan we draw accounts for both.
Weekly and biweekly lawn care keeps Portland yards healthy through our long growing season and mild wet winters. Our maintenance plans include mowing, edging, fertilization, aeration, and weed control scheduled around local rain patterns. Whether you're in Hawthorne or out toward Gresham, our lawn care and maintenance crews show up on the same day each visit, so your lawn — and your calendar — stays predictable all year long.
Paver patios, retaining walls, fire pits, and walkways add livable square footage to any Portland property. We grade and base every hardscape project to handle Northwest freeze-thaw cycles and heavy winter rain, so your patio stays level and drains properly for decades, not just a season. Hardscaping in Portland also means matching materials to your home's architecture — we bring samples so you can see the finished look before we start.
A properly zoned irrigation system saves water and keeps every corner of your landscape evenly hydrated through Portland's dry summer months. We design, install, and repair drip and sprinkler systems with smart controllers that adjust automatically to seasonal rainfall, so lawns and garden beds get exactly what they need — nothing wasted on the sidewalk. Existing system running rough? We troubleshoot and re-zone older irrigation setups too.
Choosing the right tree or shrub for a Portland yard means thinking about mature size, root spread, and how it will handle our clay-heavy soils. Our crews plant native and climate-adapted trees and shrubs correctly the first time — proper depth, mulch rings, and staking — and we can advise on species that support local pollinators and birds. It's the kind of planting that still looks great fifteen years later.
Skip months of seeding and go straight to a full, green lawn with professional sod installation. We prep and level the soil, lay fresh sod tight-seamed, and set up a watering schedule so it roots quickly in Portland's mild spring and fall windows — the best times of year for sod installation in our climate. Great for new construction yards, worn-out patches, or a full lawn replacement.
Fall leaf removal, spring bed cleanup, and storm debris haul-away keep Portland properties looking sharp between growing seasons. Our seasonal cleanup visits include pruning, mulching, gutter-adjacent debris clearing, and bed edging, timed around our rainy fall and active spring growth. Many clients pair a one-time seasonal cleanup with an ongoing lawn care plan to keep the yard consistent all year without lifting a rake themselves.
