Express General Construction - Chicago's Professional Landscaping Services

For Chicago's freeze-thaw cycles, we recommend rigid plastic or steel edging. These materials resist cracking and shifting far better than cheaper plastic or wood options. Proper installation depth is also key to preventing frost heave damage. We use and install materials proven to last through our harsh winters.

Patchy lawns here are often due to compacted clay soil, disease, or improper watering. Our process starts with core aeration to relieve compaction, followed by overseeding with durable grass blends suited for our region, and a tailored fertilization plan. This addresses the root cause for a thicker, more resilient lawn.

Absolutely. We frequently combine these services for Chicago homeowners. Fixing the edging first ensures clean, defined borders for your new lawn area. We then prepare the soil and overseed, creating a seamless, professional-looking upgrade that addresses both common local issues efficiently.
