Your home’s exterior is the first impression you make—on guests, neighbors, and even potential buyers. But in Portland’s unpredictable climate, maintaining curb appeal takes more than occasional yard work. That’s why homeowners turn to professional lawn restoration, expert landscape construction, and full-service residential lawn care to create and preserve stunning outdoor spaces.
At Ground Up Services, we bring together science, design, and craftsmanship to transform your lawn and landscape from tired to thriving.
When Is Lawn Restoration the Right Move?
Over time, lawns can deteriorate due to weather, pests, disease, poor soil, or neglect. Here are some signs you need professional lawn restoration:
-
Brown patches that don’t respond to watering
-
Weeds or moss overtaking the grass
-
Uneven growth or thinning areas
-
Poor drainage or compacted soil
-
Frequent pest or fungus issues
Our lawn restoration services are tailored to Portland’s unique challenges. We start with soil testing and lawn analysis, then develop a custom plan that may include:
-
Core aeration and dethatching
-
Overseeding or sod replacement
-
Nutrient-rich fertilization
-
Grading and drainage improvements
-
Targeted weed and pest control
Within a season or two, your lawn will look brand new—without needing a total re-installation.
