Our process is collaborative, designed to meet each client's unique requirements, whether building an elaborate outdoor retreat with patios and fireplaces or enhancing curb appeal with thoughtful plantings.

Questions and Answers

Can you help with a yard that has standing water or drainage problems common in the Chicago area?

Yes, addressing drainage and standing water is a core part of our landscape construction services. For Chicago homes, we provide solutions like strategic grading, the installation of permeable hardscape materials for patios and driveways, and the construction of functional retaining walls to manage soil erosion and water flow. Our design process always considers the local soil and climate to create a landscape that is both beautiful and resilient, effectively solving common wet yard issues.

What is included in your custom landscape design process?

Our process begins with understanding your unique requirements, functional needs, and aesthetic preferences. We then prepare a detailed custom landscape design plan that serves as your project blueprint. This plan integrates all elements—from shrub planting and hardscape construction for patios and walkways to irrigation design and greenscape layout. Established in 1981, our approach ensures every detail, from the initial design to the final installation, is coordinated to bring your outdoor vision to life efficiently and effectively.

Do you handle both the design and construction of hardscape features like patios and retaining walls?

Absolutely. As a full-service firm, we manage the entire project from concept to completion. Our team handles the design and construction of patios, driveways, walkways, and retaining walls using quality materials like brick and natural stone. This integrated approach means the vision created in the design phase is executed with precision during construction, ensuring cohesion, durability, and a seamless experience for you.
