We specialize in commercial and residential landscape maintenance in and around the Portland and metro areas. We can provide weekly or bi weekly basic lawn service all the way to a comprehensive care package. Award winning.
"Great. Juan and his team have been caring for my yard for several years. He is conscientious and always strives to do things the way I like them done. That includes weeding, removing leaves and debris, pruning, cutting back plants, mowing and edging. He does extra things when I ask, such as removing a spreading plant, usually without additional charge. Every year my HOA gives me a compliment/thanks for the way my yard looks. And it's kind of a complicated yard to manage. I also trust Juan to do other jobs for me, such as cleaning gutters, washing decks, and pressure washing the driveway. He's a nice guy."

No yearly contracts required for maintenance customers, month to month billing available. OLCB License #9292. Owner and Landscape Contractor: Robert Kinsey. Designer and Office Manager: Sarah Kinsey. Additional email - info@artisticlandscapespdx.com. Award Winning .
"Robert and the team at Artistic Landscapes were so amazing to work with. After my spouse and I fell ill over the summer, we had to let the yard go, and it took us a long time to recover so we never had enough energy to catch up. By the time we called Robert, we felt embarrassed of our yard and anxious to get it resolved. We have struggled in the past getting landscapers to follow through with giving us bids so we were nervous about starting that process again. Other crews that we hired wouldn't complete the job as described and made us feel like we were being difficult for asking questions or speaking up. This was NOT the case with Robert and his team. They were kind, communicative, affordable, flexible and the end product was gorgeous. They promised 100% and gave us 200%. We kept the crew on for monthly maintenance which will ensure that we have a gorgeous yard for years to come. Thanks to Robert, Salvador, Eduardo, Sarah and all of the folks who worked on our project in some way. We are eternally grateful, and feel like proud homeowners again."

"After 3 of their tries, a tall gate they installed still pinches at the bottom & definitely will not auto close, as I required in the beginning. Despite my eventual supplying excellent hinges (& they never credited $$ back to me, for hinges they took back-- & am terribly confused about how they installed what I purchased, without even thinking how to secure, & without regard my expense, the furthest out screw is between boards & while I offered the bolts, pure wisdom says, at least, use some washers!! And the gate should've been trimmed at the top on one side -- so many others have commented "shabby work". & all say the gate should be redone & done right. They never did backfill the fence posts...I agree with another review...they say they know how to do the privacy fence right, then they fail to do so, or answer emails. They begin tasks well, then slow down to wks & now months passing. While I corrected a prior low rating, when they sent someone to correct...I now have to revert back!!!"

"I called Savage about a sprinkler system bid on 5/14/18. I spoke with Doug, he said he could come out the next day and look at the job. Met Doug 5/15/18 and looked over the job and said he would get me a quote. So far so good. A week later on 5/22 I called Doug and asked when I should expect a quote and he told me he'd have it to me the next day. It's almost three weeks and crickets so far..I don't think I would be comfortable doing business with a company I have to chase down to get a quote. Imagine contacting them if you had a problem?"

Watch for warning signs, including decreased water pressure, unusual noises like grinding or rattling, frequent cycling on and off, visible leaks, or complete failure to start. A sudden increase in your water bill might indicate inefficiency or leaks.
If your sprinkler heads sputter or provide inconsistent coverage, your pump may be failing. Consider replacement if your pump is 10 to 15 years old, especially if it's requiring increasingly frequent repairs.
Most sprinkler pumps last approximately 15 years before requiring more frequent repairs. When your pump reaches 10 to 15 years of service, it's wise to begin planning for replacement. Regular maintenance, proper winterization, and addressing minor issues promptly can help maximize your pump's operational life. Environmental factors like water quality and usage patterns also influence longevity.
Higher-quality pumps often provide better reliability and performance, potentially justifying their increased initial cost. Premium models may include improved components and longer warranty coverage.
For larger properties or systems that operate frequently, investing in a better-quality pump can reduce long-term maintenance expenses and provide more consistent performance. Consider your specific irrigation needs and expected usage when evaluating pump options.
Emergency replacements often include premium labor rates of approximately $200 per hour compared to standard rates of $50 to $110 per hour. For a standard two-hour installation, this represents an additional $180 to $300 in labor costs alone.
Emergency situations also limit your selection options to immediately available models, potentially affecting both price and suitability. Whenever possible, plan replacements in advance to avoid these premium charges.
