Who we are
Get to Know Grover's Landscape Services & Design
Grover’s Landscape Services & Design has been shaping Oregon properties since 1995. What started as a small, hands-on operation has grown into one of the Portland metro area’s trusted family-owned landscaping companies, known for honest work, thoughtful design, and crews that show up when they say they will.
Owner Yuriy Cheshev built this company around one simple idea: a landscape is a long-term investment, and it deserves a contractor who treats it that way. Over thirty years later, that approach still guides every project we take on, from a quarter-acre backyard refresh in Beaverton to full-scale commercial landscaping maintenance services for property managers across the region.
We are licensed and insured under Oregon License #100592, and we carry general liability and workers’ compensation coverage on every job. That paperwork matters. It is what separates a real contractor from a guy with a truck.
Three Decades of Pacific Northwest Landscaping Experience
Thirty years in one region teaches you things you cannot learn anywhere else. We know which plants survive a Willamette Valley winter and which ones struggle. We know how Portland’s clay soil drains. We know how the rainy season interacts with paver bases, retaining walls, and freshly installed irrigation lines.
That locally earned experience shapes the way we approach every project. Our landscape designing services start with the property itself, the slope, the soil, the sun exposure, the existing trees, before we ever talk plants or hardscape. By the time we hand you a written proposal, the plan is built for your site, not pulled from a template.
The same standard applies whether we are installing a custom backyard, building a retaining wall, or running ongoing landscape maintenance services for a commercial complex. We do the work right because we are going to drive past it every day for the next twenty years.
Licensed, Insured, and Built on Long-Term Trust
A lot of landscape companies will talk about quality. We prefer to point to the receipts.
- Oregon License #100592, on file and verifiable with the state.
- General liability and workers' compensation insurance carried on every project. Proof of coverage available before work begins.
- Family-owned and operated since 1995, with the same hands-on management since day one.
- 5.0-star Google rating from local clients across the Portland metro area.
- Client relationships spanning 20 or more years, with most new business coming through direct referrals.
That last point matters more than any marketing claim. When the same property owner trusts you with their landscape for two decades, you are doing something right.
Family-Owned Since 1995
Grover’s started small, with a handful of crews and a phone that rang at the owner’s kitchen table. We have grown since then, but the ownership has not changed and neither has the way we operate. Yuriy Cheshev still personally reviews proposals, visits active job sites, and stays available for clients long after the work is done.
That family-owned structure is not just a marketing line. It is the reason our crews stick around, our standards stay consistent, and our clients keep calling back season after season.

What We Do
Grover’s offers a full range of in-house landscape services, so you are not juggling four different contractors for one outdoor project. Our seven core service areas include:
Landscape Design and Installation Services
Custom design work covering garden layouts, outdoor living spaces, water features, plant selection, and complete property transformations. We provide full landscape design and installation services from initial concept through final planting.
Hardscape Construction Service
Pavers, retaining walls, fire pits, patios, walkways, and outdoor kitchens built to last in the Pacific Northwest climate. Our hardscaping construction work is performed by experienced crews using quality materials suited to Oregon’s wet winters and dry summers.
Landscape Maintenance Services
Year-round residential lawn care, pruning, mulching, and seasonal cleanups, plus full commercial landscaping maintenance services for HOAs, business parks, and property managers. We tailor the schedule to your property and your budget.
Irrigation and Sprinkler Services
New irrigation service installation, system upgrades, seasonal adjustments, and sprinkler service repairs. We design efficient watering systems that keep your landscape healthy while keeping your water bills under control.
Landscape Lighting Service
Full landscape lighting design services for pathways, garden beds, trees, and architectural features. Our landscape lighting service extends the use of your outdoor space into the evening while improving safety and curb appeal.
Site Preparation Services
Land clearing, grading, excavation, and soil conditioning to prepare your property for landscaping or construction. We handle complete site preparation services for larger residential and commercial builds where significant earthwork is required.
Wetland Mitigation Services
We help Oregon property owners stay compliant with state wetland regulations through assessment, restoration planning, and coordination with the Oregon Department of State Lands. Our wetland mitigation services keep your project moving without permit headaches.
Our Approach
Why Oregon Property Owners Choose Grover's
There are plenty of landscape contractors in the Portland area. Here is what brings clients back to us year after year.
Real first-hand experience.
Three decades of working in the same climate, on the same soil types, with the same plant palette. We have seen what works and what fails. Our recommendations are based on what has actually performed for our clients, not on what is selling well at the nursery this year.
One coordinated team.
Design, hardscape, irrigation, lighting, maintenance, and site work, all handled in-house. You get one point of contact and one accountable contractor from start to finish.
Crews that respect your property.
Clean job sites, daily communication, and finished work that looks like a finished landscape, not a construction zone we walked away from.
Written proposals before any work begins.
No verbal estimates, no surprise charges. You see the full scope, materials, and timeline before you sign anything.
A name you can verify. License #100592.
Active insurance. A physical service area. A real owner who picks up the phone.
