Common Questions
We have dead patches in our Northbrook lawn and our landscape edging is damaged. Can you help?
Absolutely. These are common issues in our area, often caused by a combination of soil conditions, wear, and seasonal stress. Our team first diagnoses the specific cause of the dead lawn areas, which may involve soil testing or irrigation evaluation. We then repair or replace the sod and address the underlying issue. For damaged edging, we assess whether repair is possible or if a new, more durable installation is needed for your walkways or garden beds. Our comprehensive maintenance services are designed to prevent these problems from recurring.
Do you handle the entire process from designing a new patio to maintaining the plants around it?
Yes, we provide a full-service experience. Our process begins with a personalized landscape design consultation to create a functional and aesthetically pleasing plan for your patio, walkway, or terrace. Our own construction crews then expertly install the hardscaping. Once the build is complete, we offer ongoing landscape maintenance packages that include shrub and tree care, pruning, disease management, and seasonal clean-ups. This integrated approach ensures your entire outdoor space remains beautiful and cohesive for years to come.
What sets your approach to landscape construction apart for residential projects?
Our approach is built on the principle of devoted attention to detail, a value George established when founding the company in 1976. We don't just install features; we thoughtfully construct them as part of a unified outdoor living space. This means considering how a new retaining wall integrates with drainage, how a walkway's materials complement your home's exterior, and how the construction phase impacts your existing garden. We manage the entire project with clear communication, ensuring the final build matches the design vision and is built to last, regardless of the project's scale.
