Grant and Power Landscaping
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 September 2012
“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.”

McAdam Landscaping
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars11 November 2016
“I'm a resident in a 12 townhome "U"-shaped community with a courtyard and two "wing yards" stretching along the public sidewalk. Our landscaping at the beginning of the year (2016) consisted of 15 full grown trees, some shrubs, and struggling ground cover with a great deal of bare areas. The 30-foot trees dominated the landscape, inhibiting plant variety for lack of sunlight. Additionally, when it rained we experienced soil erosion spreading mud over the public sidewalk and courtyard walkway when it rained. This spring we (the townhome owners) decided to contact McAdam Landscaping for a remedy. Our contact person was Scott McAdam who presented us an elegant design. It called for the removal of all but two of the trees, arranging to have Davis Tree Care to handle that aspect (which they did very professionally), and the substitution of six ornamental trees and a wonderful variety of shrubs, conifers, perennials and ground cover laid out in a flowing, very aesthically-pleasing arrangement. The graphic plan placed little demand on us to envision what it would look like in the end. Scott worked with us to make a few minor adjustments that reduced the cost appreciably without departing from the overall design, displaying patience as we worked through the cumbersome internal process of deliberation, approval and payment collection. The plan was approved by the owners of all 12 townhomes at the very end of August and the job was completed in September. We are quite pleased with the final product. The mud erosion problem has been arrested. A neighbor who is an experienced gardner herself shared this: ""Scott's thoughtful design and vision has brought new energy and fluidity to our community courtyard. The use of native plants addresses our need for a low maintenance, high impact green space pleasing to the eye, and increasing our property value & appearance." Another neighbor added: "I also really appreciate his [Scott McAdam's] attention to color in all seasons. I loved how the bushes and trees turned this fall, and look forward to seeing the colors in the other seasons as well." The frog of a landscape we began the year with has been kissed. It's now a prince.”

Poul's Landscaping & Nursery, Inc.
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 May 2016
“I highly recommend this company! Poul's has done all of our landscaping design and installation since our house was built. We have used their services several times during our phased-in landscaping approach. Their very talented landscape architects' designs are beautiful and they take the time to meet with you to determine the best plan for your specific area, tastes, lifestyle and budget. I really like the fact that they have their own nursery and you can walk their property with a professional to pick out just the right tree or shrub if you want. The trees they planted for us several years ago were amazing and continue to thrive providing us with beautiful shade in just the right spot. Most recently, we've cleared out a brush line and Poul's designed and installed new flowering bushes and perennials which have completely changed the look of our back yard.”
Rooftopia, LLC
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars30 May 2013
“Rooftopia has been exceptional to work with. We live in an apt. duplex with limited space available for them to work with but they were able to create a beautiful landscape. Although we were on a tight budget, they were able to offer us so many options. Everything was completely professional. The proposal was clear and included photo images so we could visualize the layout and end product. They were in constant communication during the entire process too. They are the best in Chicago and so grateful we found them!”

“As Owner of a design/build firm specializing in residential and commercial renovation that has been in business for 30 years I highly recommend Ruby Barnes as a top quality landscape designer and installer. I worked with Ms Barnes from the start of her career and have always been impressed by her knowledge and skills. Her scale drawings are accurate and her designs are functional, out-of-the-ordinary beautiful as well as sustainable. I am always happy to recommend her to my clients.”
Burkhart Outdoors, Inc.
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 January 2019
“My husband and I hired Kyle to design and install a patio and fire pit with surrounding plants in our back yard. With an eye for detail and a unique creative ability, Kyle came up with a perfect design for us which complemented our house and deck. Kyle’s clear communication made the project flow seamlessly. We received an initial email detailing each step of the project. Each day he was on job site to monitor the progress and convey any additional information or changes as well as answer any of our questions. The crew was on time daily, worked tirelessly, answered our questions, and cleaned up the yard at the end of each day. The project was within our budget, completed on time and we absolutely love it.”
Exterra Designs, Inc
Landscape Gardeners in Lombard, IL
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 February 2013
“We have had Exterra do two projects for our home. First was landscaping the front and side of the house. This involved stone work, plantings and a pergola. We were thrilled with beautiful design and the craftsmanship of installation. The plantings have thrived and after 10 years all the work remains intact. Two years ago, we came back to Pete to have a patio put on the back of the house. This was all brick work and Pete's design was great and worked perfect with what was existing. We had some settling on the patio and Exterra was out immediately to fix it and it is great. We love the work Pete has done with design and the guys doing the install were wonderful. We whole heartedly recommend Exterra designs.”

As a general guideline, established plants with well-established root systems typically require watering once or twice a week, adjusting as needed depending how warm it is. Newly planted or seedlings may need more frequent watering for proper establishment. During hot and dry weather, plants may require additional watering to prevent drought stress, so monitoring soil moisture is important.

If you haven’t dabbled with the garden trowel before or you know your garden design vision is beyond your gardening skills, then it’s time to call in the Lombard, IL garden landscapers. Landscape gardeners in Lombard, IL will be able to bring your outside space to life with flowers, plants, trees, shrubbery, lawns and all sorts of verdant, floral features.

Why should I hire a landscape gardener in Lombard, IL?


Even if you do have a few green fingers yourself, garden landscapers in Lombard, IL will have the experience and training to carry out larger landscaping projects and will have the eye for what works best where and when in your garden. They may work with a landscape designer or architect who will put together the plans that they then execute, or they may do this work themselves. If you’re looking for a Lombard, IL landscape architect, or perhaps you want to select your own garden supplies yourself, then you can find the right professionals for this on Houzz, too. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of landscape contractors: Landscape Architects & Garden Designers, Garden & Landscape Supplies, Stone, Paving & Concrete, Tree Services.

What’s the difference between gardeners and landscapers?


The term landscapers is often interchangeable with gardeners, but landscape gardeners (as they’re also known) are sometimes a bit different from regular gardeners. Usually, landscapers can change the layout and structure of gardens, working with water features, paving, decking and other more substantial parts of gardens. A basic gardener, on the other hand, will deal only with lawns, plants, trees and flowers. However, you will often find gardeners in Lombard, IL that offer both gardening and landscaping together and can source all kinds of landscaping and garden supplies for you.

Will I need to have a regular gardener?


Once the plants have been chosen, planted or potted, and the lawn or patio laid, then your garden will be ready to enjoy, but never completely finished. Like all living things, your garden will grow and change with time and the seasons, so it will need a bit of TLC and garden maintenance from time to time. This is when you may want to hire Lombard, IL gardeners again, especially if you have a very large garden or landscaped area that needs constant upkeep. Hire Lombard, IL gardeners to water, weed and prune your plants, keep the lawn trim and green, and cut back any overgrowing trees. Some Lombard gardeners may source their own garden supplies, while with others you may have to do this yourself.

Questions to ask a landscape gardener:


  • How long have you been in the gardening business?
  • Do you design gardens or just carry out the gardening/landscaping work?
  • Have you worked on similar garden projects to mine before?
  • Who will work on the project? Do you subcontract any work to other gardeners?
  • Will you offer advice on what plants will work best with my outdoor space, design and the current season?
  • Will you provide the garden supplies or should I choose these myself?
  • How long will it take you to complete this project?
  • What are your landscaping costs?
  • Can you provide a written estimate?
  • Do you offer garden maintenance work? What are your daily or hourly rates as a regular gardener?
