Signs You Need a Real Maintenance Program
Most maintenance calls start with one of these situations. Two or more on the same property usually means the current service is either too inconsistent or the wrong fit for the landscape.
-
The lawn looks worse every year.
Patchy areas, weeds taking over, thinning turf, or moss spreading in shady zones. Usually a soil, mowing, or fertilization problem, not a watering one. -
Shrubs are overgrown or sheared into shapes they were not meant to be.
Improper pruning kills shrubs slowly. A real maintenance crew prunes by species, not by hedge trimmer. -
Beds are full of weeds.
Mulch was never refreshed, edges have collapsed, and weeds are running through the beds. A proper maintenance program prevents this rather than reacting to it. -
Drainage problems are getting worse.
Standing water after a rain, soggy lawn, mulch washing out. Maintenance can manage the symptoms while we sort out the underlying drainage issue. -
Your current landscaper is hard to reach.
Missed visits, no written schedule, no return phone calls. Maintenance is a long-term relationship. If communication is broken, the work usually is too. -
You are a property manager or HOA board juggling multiple vendors.
Different crews for mowing, pruning, irrigation, and lighting create coordination headaches and gaps in accountability.
If any of these sound familiar, call (503) 936-8910. We will walk the property, give an honest assessment, and put together a maintenance program that actually fits the landscape.
Our Landscape Maintenance Services
From weekly residential lawn care to full HOA maintenance contracts, here is what we handle. Each one can be a standalone service or part of a complete year-round program.
Species-specific pruning of ornamental shrubs and small trees, bed weeding, edge maintenance, and seasonal mulch refresh. Pruning is timed to the plant, not the calendar, so you keep the bloom cycle and the natural shape of each species.
Full commercial landscaping maintenance services for HOAs, business parks, multi-family communities, office complexes, retail centers, and property management companies. Predictable schedules, consistent crews, one point of contact, and a written contract that covers exactly what is included. Our commercial landscape maintenance service works on weekly or biweekly cycles, depending on the property.
Spring and fall landscape cleanup services to reset the property between seasons. Spring cleanup includes bed cleanout, mulch refresh, pruning, fertilization, and irrigation startup. Fall cleanup covers leaf removal, gutter clearing, perennial cutbacks, last mow, and irrigation winterization. Standalone cleanups are available even if you are not on a year-round contract.
Mowing, edging, aeration, overseeding, fertilization, and weed control on a regular schedule. Oregon lawns need different care than turf programs you see advertised in other regions. Our crews adjust mowing height, fertilizer timing, and treatments to fit Pacific Northwest growing patterns.

Seasonal irrigation startups, controller adjustments, head checks, leak diagnosis, and winterization. Maintenance customers get coordinated irrigation care as part of the contract instead of waiting for a separate vendor to show up. Larger irrigation repairs are handled by our irrigation and sprinkler team.
How We Work
How a Landscape Maintenance Program Works
Call (503) 936-8910 or request a quote online. We ask about the property, the current condition, and what you want the maintenance program to cover. Then we schedule a site visit, usually within a few business days.
We walk the property, assess the lawn, beds, hardscape, and irrigation, and talk through your priorities. You get a written maintenance proposal covering scope, visit frequency, what is included each visit, and price. No vague verbal arrangements that drift over time.
Once the contract is signed, you get a consistent crew, a predictable visit schedule, and one point of contact for everything related to the property. We document each visit so you always know what was done and when.
What a Typical Maintenance Visit Includes
Three decades of Pacific Northwest maintenance has taught us what actually keeps a landscape healthy here. A typical visit on a year-round contract covers:
- Mowing at the correct height for the season and grass species
- Edging along beds, walkways, and driveways
- Bed weeding by hand to protect plant roots
- Species-specific pruning of shrubs and small trees
- Blowing and cleanup of all hard surfaces before we leave
- Visual inspection of irrigation, lighting, and hardscape with a heads-up if something needs attention
- Seasonal adjustments as conditions change
Larger items like fertilization, aeration, overseeding, mulch refresh, and pest treatments are scheduled at the right time of year and included or quoted separately depending on your contract.
How Our Maintenance Pricing Works
Most property owners and managers want a number before they call. We understand that, but giving you a flat “lawn care costs $X” without seeing the property would be dishonest. Two properties the same size can need completely different programs. Here is how we actually price maintenance.
-
Free site visit first.
A member of our team comes to the property, evaluates the landscape, and talks through what you want the program to cover. The site visit and initial consultation cost you nothing. -
Written maintenance proposal before service starts.
Whether it is a small residential lawn or a 40-unit HOA, you see the scope, visit frequency, and price in writing before you commit. No verbal handshakes, no surprise charges.
Three things drive the price on any landscape maintenance program:
- Property size and complexity. Lawn square footage, bed area, number of shrubs and trees, and how much hardscape needs blowing and edging
- Visit frequency. Weekly is the most common in the growing season, biweekly works for smaller or low-maintenance properties, commercial sites sometimes need twice-weekly visits
- Scope of work. A mow-and-blow program costs less than full bed care, pruning, fertilization, and irrigation management
What you will not pay for:
- Hidden charges for services that were supposed to be in the original contract
- Verbal promises that disappear when the invoice arrives
- Pressure to add services your landscape does not actually need
If you want a ballpark before we visit, call (503) 936-8910. Describe the property and what you want covered, and we can usually give you a rough range over the phone with no obligation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do landscape maintenance services cost in Portland?
It depends on the property size, the scope of work, and the visit frequency. Smaller residential lawn care programs often run a few hundred dollars per month during the growing season. Full residential programs with bed care, pruning, and seasonal services run higher. Commercial landscape maintenance service pricing is based on the property and the contract scope. We provide a written quote after the site visit.
Do you offer year-round contracts or just seasonal service?
Both. Year-round contracts are most common because they keep the landscape consistent and prevent the spring-cleanup catch-up cycle. Standalone seasonal landscape cleanup services are available if you only need spring or fall help. We will recommend the option that actually fits the property.
How often should I have my landscape maintained?
Most residential properties need weekly visits during the growing season (April through October) and biweekly or as-needed visits during winter. Commercial properties often run weekly or twice-weekly depending on traffic and visibility. We tailor the schedule to the property, not the other way around.
Do you handle commercial landscape maintenance for HOAs and property managers?
Yes. Commercial landscaping maintenance services are a major part of what we do. HOAs, business parks, multi-family communities, and property management portfolios get a consistent crew, a written scope, and one point of contact for every property. Proof of insurance, W-9s, and any other paperwork your accounting team needs is available on request.
Can you take over maintenance on a landscape you did not install?
Yes. About half our maintenance contracts are on landscapes installed by someone else. We walk the property, identify any issues that need to be addressed before regular service starts, and build the maintenance program around what is actually there.
Are you licensed and insured for landscape maintenance in Oregon?
Yes. We hold Oregon License #100592 and carry general liability and workers’ compensation insurance on every job. Certificates of insurance are available on request for HOAs, property managers, and commercial accounts.
Do you do seasonal landscape cleanup as a one-time service?
Yes. Spring and fall cleanups are available as standalone projects even if you are not on a year-round contract. Many homeowners use the one-time cleanup to decide whether to add ongoing maintenance afterward.
