Matt Gri n founded Prime Patio & Landscape in 1999.
Prime Lawn, a company that started as a business plan developed for a college project, was o cially established in Porter by Matt Gri n in 1999. Originally founded as a landscaping business, over the years Prime Lawn expanded to o er various services from irrigation and drainage to lighting, property master plans, outdoor kitchens and arti cial turf. In turn, the company rebranded in 2025 to Prime Patio & Landscape, Gri n said. Staying local Starting with two employees, today the com- pany operates with a sta of 20 certi ed Interlock- ing Concrete Paver Institute employees. “In the late ‘90s, while in high school, I mowed grass for another company, and that’s where I learned to cut lawns. And I never really thought that was what I would end up doing. And so it just kind of evolved,” Gri n said. In addition to his knowledge of mowing lawns, Gri n said he earned a degree in horticulture and agronomy and landscape architecture. Along with a storefront in Porter, which opened in 2025, Gri n said Prime Patio & Landscape o ers residential and commercial services in neigh- boring north Houston communities, including Kingwood, Atascocita, The Woodlands and Spring. At the storefront, customers can nd a material supply yard with mulch, aggregates and displays of some of the features that can be built to create outdoor sanctuaries.
What’s special about it? As more people enjoy holding family gatherings at home, Prime Patio & Landscape designs outdoor patios in residential homes to o er customers their own personal sanctuary with features such as outdoor kitchens, Gri n said. Gri n said the company has most recently encountered projects such as outdoor lighting services and porcelain tile projects. “Porcelain tiles are really di cult to chip, and you can get them to look like concrete or wood or whatever you want, and they’re really popular. And they’re great because there’s really very little maintenance to them, and they’re slip-resistant,” Gri n said. Other trends seen are due to the cost needed to maintain outdoor properties. “What I’m seeing is that the cost to maintain those properties are so much greater than they used to be, and so minimizing landscape and still making it look like it’s full and lush is a huge key ... and the way you do that is you manipulate your landscape design to present as if it’s a lot of land- scape, even though it’s really not,” Gri n said.
