Garden Maintenance Professionals in Batavia, IL

“It is always a great pleasure working with CB Conlin. They are truly a top-notch company! We always look forward to being on site with them. From talented designers to highly skilled employees their projects are always one of a kind.”

“My patio, complete with fire ring, walkways around the house and to the front door are beautiful. However, the pond with fountain and landscaping is my prize completely designed and installed by Grant and Power.”

“I've used ALL AMERICAN for ten years. I have no plans of changing that. Always a great job and always on time.”

“I recently bought a house in which the inside was practically brand new but the outside was in terrible shape. To be honest, from the outside, it was probably the ugliest house on the block. Most of it was made up of unkept grass, roots & weeds everywhere, and big patches on dirt. Along with that, the front walkway was old, cracked and uneven with the foundation of the house. Saying itneeded a ton of work would be an understatement. I contacted Bear Landscaping and sat down with Mike to come up with a plan based on my needs and wants and my price range. The plan was to put down brand new sod, rip up the front walk & porch and put in a paver walk & porch, put in a flagstone pathway on the side of the house and put in a paver patio with pillars, a wall and a gas fire pit in the backyard. BL then provided me with a digital layout of the final project and we tweaked a few things based on my personal preference. Then I was able to go to the local Unilock with Mike to pick out my pavers. I have never done this before and Mike was very helpful and honest in assisting me with finding a paver that I liked, that would fit in my price range and would blend in well with the house. Now with the planning done and the orders placed, the project was underway. They started by ripping up the front walk & porch along with various dead plants in the yard. The completed the front porch & walk in a matter of three days while also tackling other projects in the yard. Next was the back patio, which was the biggest part of the project. This only took about a week to complete, again, while working on other projects in my yard at the same time. Finally came the flagstone path and the sod. The entire project took about three weeks to complete due to some hold ups with the weather. To be honest I was amazed at how quickly they got all this done. They essentially gave me a brand new, stunning yard in three weeks. Along with all this work BL planted various plants, bushes and trees upon my request as well. They were extremely knowledgable about what types of plants and trees I needed based on the conditions where they were being planted and my reasoning behind wanting them. I was truly amazed and speechless at the overall transformation that took place. I have my dream yard. One of my new neighbors came up a few days after completion and said, "you have, by far, the nicest house on the block." He mentioned how other neighbors he had talked to said similar things and that they were so happy that someone bought the house who cared about what it looked like. While I do care quite a bit about my yard, without the work of Bear Landscaping, there is no way this would have been possible. Along with that, I had at least eight people come up and ask for BL's information because of how amazed they were at the work that had been done. Beyond the unbelievable work that BL did to my yard, what impressed me the most was the hard-working, well-mannered and truly caring individuals that worked on my yard. They were in heat in the upper 90s on some days and that did not stop them. There were days where they worked past 7:00 pm, and they came out on the weekends. The workers were very particular about their work and if something wasn't done exactly how they wanted it, they would continue to work on it until it met their standards. Beyond their high standards, they were such friendly people who I was honestly sad to say goodbye to. I can't find the right words to sum up how thankful I am and how happy I am to have chosen Bear Landscaping to do my yard renovation. It's my first house and it's turned into my dream because of the work they've done and I honestly can't imagine moving again because of how happy I am with how my yard looks. I would highly recommend BL to anyone. Mike and his workers are upstanding individuals who truly care about their customers. They cater to your needs, they are very reasonable price-wise, but most importantly they want their customers to be happy and they will do all that it takes to achieve that!”

“Wilson Ware completely transformed our Chicago bungalow yard and landscaping. Our back yard was re-graded, hardscaped, and landscaped. Hardscape included a patio with paths to the sidewalk, alley, and space for the grill. It also included a seating wall around the giant silver maple tree. They laid down new sod and landscaped with region specific plants. They also built a fence around the entire back yard. The same care and attention was also given to our front and side yard with complimentary plants. John Ware was our designer and led the entire project from start to finish. We had been discussing our yard for years and never able to come to a decision on what to do. John came to our house and listened to our ideas, took what we said and blew us away on the first try! His design was more than we expected and we continue to appreciate what he came up with every time we're enjoying our yard. The project was very fairly priced and finished within a reasonable time. The only criticism we have is in John's responsiveness towards the end of the project, and in our interest to continue using Wilson Ware Group for ongoing landscape and maintenance.”

“Jim and the Plandscape team have ALWAYS done a great job for us. We have now used them on three jobs (this review is from the first, most major, project) and they are always the first call we make for landscape design and development. They are also reasonably priced for the work they provide.”

“Spirited Gardner Julia Bunn in 2014 helped us design and build a rain garden for our condo that successfully and beautifully diverts storm water into our front yard in Chicago. Julia clearly explained which native plants would do well in our shady, sandy spot, and she provided us a clear map for our new garden. On "dig day" she did an excellent job of corralling our volunteer crew to ensure we correctly dug our rain swale and planted our plants. Julia also provided guidance over the summer on routine care and on how to put our garden to bed for the winter. I'm looking forward to seeing our rain garden evolve as it matures over the years. Overall, hiring Julia has been one of the best investments our condo has made in the past decade.”

“This company is very professional and did an amazing job building our patio and walkway. They also did the landscaping around the patio and we have had them do the landscaping in the front of our house as well! They are very easy to work with. Please contact them if you have any landscaping needs. You will not be disappointed. We plan to use them next year again to expand our patio.”

“The Basic Landscape team did an excellent job with our project. They were very patient with our process to have our outdoor design approved (via village). They did a great job in building our outdoor patio, fireplace, pizza oven, pavilion, and grill. When something was not to our satisfaction, they fixed it with a smile to ensure it was to our satisfaction.”

“Steve and his team went beyond all expectations. There was clear and frequent communication. He was able to keep the job within our budget. The team showed up when expected, doing meticulous work and thorough clean up. I fully recommend them.”
