Our Process
Through the design process, we strive to exceed your expectations every step of the way. Regardless of the size of the job, we will always bring the same attitude and unwavering commitment to a stellar customer experience and a high quality finished product.
Consultation
Our team will meet with you to explore ideas, needs, and goals and provide suggestions and our own creative input.
We will analyze the conditions of your landscape; the spatial dimensions, sun and shade exposure, irrigation, and any constraints or specific needs.
Analysis of Landscape
We will design a variety of hand sketched plans, overhead plans, and 3D renderings to help you visualize the finished project.
Designing + Planning
After planning, we will provide you with a detailed estimate and contract that
fits your time and budget
Proposal
The contract is signed and we are ready to get started! Our experienced team will turn your landscape vision into a landscape reality.
Build
We will help the landscape continue to grow over time with our care and maintenance plans.
Grow
From the beginning, all of our projects are designed and built to provide lasting value – to become healthier and stronger over time. Once a project is complete, we offer maintenance and annual service care, and will continue to proactively stay in touch, because we care about our clients and we care about our work.
Plantings + Gardens
Plants have the powerful ability to impact our moods, alleviate stress, and improve our homes and communities. By understanding the nuances of form, texture and color among the plants and trees that thrive in the Willamette Valley, we can design a living, dynamic space that creates the perfect atmosphere.

"Couldn’t be happier! For one, grassroots was one of the only landscape companies that returned my call. Lucky us! The design that Garrett came up with, with what I envisioned turned out fantastic. The plants, grass to the paver patio and the gravel walk way was exactly what we wanted. We have a backyard we will be able to enjoy for years. Thanks Garrett and the guys!"

"We found GrassRoots doing a web search for landscapers in the area to help with our yard. Our new home’s existing landscaping needed a boost and attention. We also needed a gate retrofitted.

On time, friendly and hard workers. We would use them again and definitely would recommend them to anyone who needs landscaping help."

"We hired Grassroots for a few important projects at our home over the past 2 years. The entire Grassroots team really went above and beyond. Garrett’s team was very professional, flexible, and were truly focused on quality. Our projects were challenging due to terrain and access. This didn’t stop Garrett, Luke, Austin, and team from building a rock solid cedar deck with custom wrap around stairs, a river rock retaining wall, in-ground stair case, and new gravel path with proper drainage, all in a steep backyard with very limited access. We couldn’t be happier and look forward to enjoying it for many years to come! We will definitely be working with Grassroots again."

Years later it still holds up to the standards he set forth when building it. "
