Serving Portland
Property Services in Portland, OR
Old inner-eastside lots, deep tree canopy and narrow access define property work in Portland.
Get a free quotePortland's housing stock is genuinely old by West Coast standards — bungalows, foursquares and cottages across Woodstock, Sellwood and the Alberta area, grander stock in Laurelhurst and Irvington, and steep, slide-prone silt lots up in the West Hills. Lots are narrow and deep, many with alley access, basements and later ADUs squeezed onto the back. That geometry rules out anything wide-tracked and means most of the work is done by hand or through a gate.
The tree canopy is the other governing fact. Big-leaf maple, sweetgum and Douglas fir shed enormously between October and December, gutters overflow onto old wood siding, and moss takes hold on north roof faces and every unwashed patio. Street trees are city-regulated, so pruning has limits.
Downspout disconnection is widespread on the eastside, which means splash zones, planted swales and drainage runs that need keeping clear rather than a straightforward kerb discharge.

What Portland calls us for
Gutter Cleaning
Dense street-tree canopy over century-old houses fills half-round gutters repeatedly through a long leaf-drop season.
Pressure Washing
Shaded eastside porches, brick steps and old concrete walks green over every winter in Portland's damp.
Yard Debris Removal
Narrow lots with no on-site turning space leave nowhere to stack prunings, so material has to be carted out.
