Chicago, IL Hardscaping Professionals

“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.”

“Wow, is all I can say about Gary's work and flair for landscape and outdoor living area design. I have worked with a number of landscape designa nd installation firms in the past, but none of them has come even close to the caliber of work and design that Gary at Blanford Design is capable of. Not even close. The sheer difference in architectural design quality sets Gary far apart from the rest of the pack. If you require elegant and well thought out design and installation services, give Gary a call - no doubt you will be as amazed as I am!”

“Heffernan Landscape Design designed and installed a garden and patio after gut-rehab and addition built to my home. The architecture of my home, my needs, wish list and my abilitiy as a gardner were taken into account when the garden was designed. A large patio with seating, greenspace, herb garden, and shade trees was installed. Excellent work with beautiful results. Courteous crew left the area spotless.”

“Needing an architectural drawing for a design that fit our unique back yard area and then a quality company to complete the work, I received a glowing reference to consider Apple Landscaping for our Patio options. Once we met with them and then reviewed what they could build, it was an easy decision. More importantly, the quality of work and materials used, the ease of making choices to add or delete certain features created a highly collaborative team to ensure that the project went smoothly and as expected and our final product was as we envisioned. Keith and Monique are total professionals and were there consistently to ensure timelines were met and I, the customer was satisfied. I have recommended Apple to everyone I know who is considering any Hardscape work. This is one HIGH quality company and they are totally Customer focused. I couldn't be happier.”

“We have used KMS as our landscaper for many years and we are very satisfied with their work. The landscape design they created for our home in the city is perfect for all seasons. Their creativity, knowledge and efficiency are excellent. The service is timely and communication is good. We highly recommend this company”

“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.”

“Apex was hired after competitive bids and reference checks to design and install 10 corners and two large planting beds in our Townhouse complex. The Designer and Project Manager was Mike Burkland. Apex collaborated with our Landscape Committee to produce a design that more than satisfied our requirements. Mike stayed on top of every aspect of the implementation, assuring that staff, plants, sod, outcropping stone etc. were first rate. His crew was terrific and he deserves special recognition for his follow thru. If all contractors performed like Mike and Apex, our Association would be a dream to manage.”

“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 had our apron to the driveway and the front sidewalk and entrance done with pavers. We were happy to hear that polymeric sand was used so that weeds would not grow between the pavers. The grading of the sidewalk was excellent and there was no need to even have a step due to this. We loved the artistic look of the sidewalk. The entrance from the driveway is wider and gives it a more elegant look. The sidewalk has the pavers turned along the two edges for the border appearance. The finished project far exceeded our expectations. We plan to use Yorkville Hill for our patio and landscaping! We loved how Kyle contacted us whenever we had changes or questions and how he supervised his crew!”

“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.”
