Home Services reviews in Portland, Oregon

Grasstains repaired our irrigation system, which needed a ton of work. We look forward to a healthy green lawn and landscape. We’re most excited about the new raised beds they irrigated for us.

As a millennial who wants someone who is up to date - this is the crew. Online scheduling, email confirmation, way better than most contractors. Also the work was done on time and in budget. Our yard looks amazing. Couldn’t be happier.

This group was great to work with. We had a natural playground designed and they were able to take the architects plans and make our dream come to a reality! They were very communicative and fun to work with. We have already selected them to work with us on another project!

Matt and his team did a full landscaping redesign on our front and backyard. It was a big and complex job that they handled well. We're very happy with how the work turned out and it looks excellent.

Grasstains turned our sloped, little-used yard into a two-tiered outdoor space set apart by an undulating retaining wall. The paved area is perfect for parties and the grass area for dogs, kids, and fun. They did a great job and we love it year-round!

We used Matt and the rest of the team to design our "tree haus" backyard in 2016 - it continues to exceed our expectations even 7 years later. We've worked with them on an ongoing basis for irrigation and landscape maintenance, and they've answered questions as they arose. Two thumbs up - highly recommend.

Matt came out to my bosses place in SW Portland and gave some amazing recommendations! He’s always so super helpful even if he’s not the one doing the work. Thank you so much Matt …. My boss Omar said you’re the best!!

Hired GrassStains to fix a few week or broken sprinklers on our sidewalk strip of lawn. They worked through the issue and replaced with the correct flow units. My dead spots are healed! Team was on time, professional and got it done same day. Something I had been putting off for two years was fixed in a day!

As a landscape designer that has worked with Grasstains in multiple capacities, I have always found them easy to work with. The ly strive to install to design intent and if they have questions, they don't hesitate to contact me which provides a lot of comfort to me as well as the client that the design is being installed correctly.

2026 update - Geraldo and Chris did a mid winter cleanup, system check and yard reorganization. They were very attentive to detail and got the job done faster than promised. The yard looks great!

The team was super responsive, professional, on schedule, and easy to work with. They did a great job quickly redoing our drip system, cleaning up the yard and bark dusting. Previously they installed our back landscaping.

We used Grasstains to landscape our backyard and install gravel pathways and a fire pit area. We worked primarily with Dustin, who was very professional, answering all of our questions in the initial bidding process, and providing prompt communication throughout the process. We’re very happy with our new yard!

We had Grasstains de-winterize our landscape irrigation system this week in preparation for the summer. The appointment making process was super easy to use, similar to making an appt at a restaurant, with options to modify/cancel if needed using the email confirmation. The tech who helped us arrived at the appointed time, was very professional and helpful, and we learned a lot about our system as this is a new home for us and the first year we are preparing it for use. Thank you for the excellent service!

Grasstains completed a Stormwater mitigation project and natural playground element at Creston Elementary School in SE Portland. Matt (owner) and Stetson (site project manager) were easy to work with and responded quickly to questions and requests for updates. They were kind and professional while navigating working during school hours. The project turned out beautifully and is a welcomed addition to our little neighborhood school. The overall experience working with Grasstains was positive and I would highly recommend them for any landscaping project.

Stetson and his team at Grasstains just came out to do a yard cleanup and winterization. They did a fabulous job, leaving the yard tidy and well groomed. They worked so efficiently that by the time I thought to check on them they were finished and the yard looked fantastic. Highly recommend.

Matt and his team are by far the best in town! The workmanship and pride the Grasstains team takes in every project is remarkable. We have used them on two major projects. We highly recommend Grasstains to anyone looking for a modern landscaping company that is knowledge based and customer satisfaction driven. ❤️❤️❤️

I had an outstanding experience with Grasstains! Their technician arrived promptly for my irrigation system start-up and evaluation. He was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to thoroughly assess my system and make expert recommendations.

We worked with Grasstains to design and implement a makeover of our front yard. This included new wood steps to our front door, a fenced front patio, concrete planters, pavers, drought tolerant plants, boulders, river rock design elements, and lighting. Matt met us at our home and listened to our dream of having a grass-free natural and pollinator friendly front yard, and based on our collaboration he came up with a great design and his team accomplished the work in the time they estimated. Definitely recommend working with them for your project!

Grasstains was easy to work with and responsive when we had questions or needed something tweaked during our build. They were able to continue with the project seamlessly even when they had an unforeseeable staffing change. Grasstains made the final stages of our backyard project go as smoothly as we could have hoped for.

Matt at Grasstains was very patient with our project as we started with a big scope but eventually kept refining it to something workable for us. The crew was nice to work with and did a great job navigating a tight Portland lot.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt and his team to build a paver patio in my backyard, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional.

Matt, the owner, was fantastic to work with. He was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cared about bringing my vision to life. His expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire project, ensuring that everything was done to the highest standards.

Stetson, the project lead, was equally impressive. His professionalism and kindness made the process smooth and enjoyable. Stetson's team worked diligently, showing great respect for my property and always leaving the site clean at the end of each day. Their craftsmanship was top-notch, and it's clear they take great pride in their work.

The final result is a stunning paver patio that has transformed my backyard into a beautiful and functional outdoor space. I am beyond thrilled with the turnout and have already received numerous compliments from friends and neighbors.

If you're looking for a landscaping company that combines professionalism, kindness, and exceptional skill, I highly recommend Matt and his team. Their dedication to customer satisfaction is unmatched, and I am confident you will be as pleased with their work as I am.

Thank you, Grasstains, for your outstanding service!

We did a pretty big back yard remodel. We put in a new decorative retaining wall, for pit area, paver patio, garden boxes, boulder retaining wall, full irrigation system, plants, and lighting.

Grass stains did an excellent job with the project. They worked hard to give us what we wanted. The hard scape looks amazing with a beautiful patio and big stone stairs going to to the upper yard.

We are very happy with the project. It completely transformed our yard which was an overgrown jungle to begin with. I recommend grass stains without reservation.
