Landscapers & Landscaping Companies in Chicago

“Mary came out and we discussed what I was wanting in my landscaping. She created a design plan for my front and back yards and hired the needed help to make it happen. It turned out beautiful and I've gotten lots of compliments on my yard!”

“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!”

“Mitch Beiser proved to be a real pro at imagining, designing, and installing a stunning lighting system for our front yard. His crew was efficient, timely, and competent even in the face of some challenging circumstances involved with very tall tress and old electrical circuitry. He was careful to explain each step of the installation and check back with me to ensure that I was pleased with the results. His fees were reasonable considering the amount of time he put into the project and the size of the crew committed to completing it. In addition, he is a nice guy who I was able to trust that he would deliver on what he said. I recommend the company without reservation. You will be pleased.”

“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.”

“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.”

“We have had the pleasure of partnering with with Van Zelst, Inc. on numerous jobs over many years. Each project has been thoughtfully designed, and professionally executed from start to finish. We look forward to our next opportunity to partner with them.”

“James Martin Associates is a remarkably talented landscape design and installation company with out of this world service. We have worked together on dozens of projects and their attention to detail has made the difference during the design process as well as the installation of their work. I highly recommend them for any outdoor project.”

“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.”

“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.”

“Chicago Green Design did the landscape at my house. The work was amazing! It blended perfectly in with the look and design of my house. It didn't look like one of those standard landscape jobs. People are constantly complementing my landscape. They take the ideas you have and are able to make them a reality! I highly recommend Chicago Green Design!”
