FAQs
What should I do about poor grading causing drainage issues in my Evanston yard?
Poor grading is a common issue in our area, often leading to soggy lawns, basement seepage, and plant stress. Our team provides comprehensive grading and drainage solutions as part of our landscape construction services. We assess your property's specific water flow and can regrade to ensure proper runoff, often integrating solutions like French drains or dry creek beds that are both functional and attractive for Evanston homes.
Do you offer warranties on the plants you install?
Yes, we stand behind our work. We provide a two-year warranty on all newly installed trees, evergreens, shrubs, and groundcover. This commitment reflects our confidence in selecting the right plants for your site and installing them correctly. Our one-acre nursery in Evanston allows us to source healthy, acclimated plant material, and our ongoing maintenance programs help ensure their long-term success.
Can you help design and build an outdoor living space, like a patio or outdoor kitchen?
Absolutely. As a full-service design-build firm, we handle everything from initial concept to final construction. Our services include patio, walkway, and outdoor kitchen installation, as well as structures like pergolas and water features. We create detailed computer-aided designs and 3-D visualizations so you can see the plan for your Evanston property before we begin, ensuring the final result matches your vision and lifestyle.

Company Background
Nature's Perspective Landscaping was founded in 1979 by Evanston residents Tom Klitzkie and Barbara Schwarz, who turned a $200 loan into a family-run North Shore institution. Tom, a University of Wisconsin horticulture graduate, and Barbara, a former Chicago Botanic Garden information officer, combined their deep plant knowledge and hands-on experience to build a company grounded in local expertise. Starting with a single lawnmower and weekend work, they've grown to a team of over 45, operating from their three-acre Evanston facility, which includes a nursery and showroom. Their journey from humble beginnings to a full-service design, installation, and maintenance firm reflects a lasting commitment to the community they live and work in.
