“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!”

“The Hursthouse team patiently spent many hours developing a detailed and extensive renovation plan for our entire property. Major features of the plan included: --installing a brick paver driveway bordered by a snapcut limestone retaining wall --installing bluestone front entry walk and porch --rebuilding backyard bluestone patio and new courtyard area with water fountain and cast iron fence border --extensive landscape lighting both front and back --installing imported planter urns on pedestals --extensive tree & shrub planting, perennials & ground cover. The design added great value and enhanced our enjoyment of our property in ways we never anticipated. The entire Hursthouse team took great pride in their work and went to great lengths to make us very satisfied clients.”

“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.”

“Jill Davis has turned my plain landscape into a lush beautiful array of color and life. Jill not only has helped me with our landscape, but she puts together wonderful festive pots for my front porch for every season. Jill is extremely knowledgable and creative. Jill has helped us for several years now and I look forward to her continued support.”

“We have used Rolling Landscapes on a number of occassions - Each of those times we were very satisfied with the results. They are very helpful with designing our project. Great in assiting our current need and our needs for growing or adding onto the project at a later date.”

“Over the years, I have had the pleasure to design and install Landscape Illumination systems on a number of projects that John West has designed and installed. As the owner of Night Light, Inc, I have had the opportunity to work at some of the nicest properties throughout Chicago. I am truly impressed with the landscapes designed by John. John does not follow a common road in his approach to properties. He understands his client's thoroughly and develops the entire property to be unique and very special. Calming and a pleasure to enjoy, is how I read his customer's reactions. Never have I seen a boring detail in his work, but instead a refreshing approach to creating excitement in garden spaces. We have worked on smaller city spaces and country estates, where he has transformed them into meaningful islands of paradise. I give John my highest praises for jobs well done.”

“Marilyn could not be more courteous, patient and knowledgeable about her profession. She has an excellent eye for design of both landscapes and hardscapes and we could not be more thrilled with the end product of her work. She is very hands on, will work to keep costs down, and always has a smile on her face. You won't be dissappointed with the result if you work with Marilyn. Guaranteed!”

“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 firm, Greenheart Buildings Inc. (d.b.a. Arrow-wood Timber Frame Homes), engaged Twig Landscape Design to develop a multi-phase design for a remodel in River Forest which is now underway. We were impressed by Michelle's ability to understand and represent our client's needs in her final design. We are looking forward to putting the landscaping in place, once the other roofing and siding aspects of the remodel have been competed. We highly recommend Twig Landscape Design.”

“We just finished a massive 3500 sq ft project with Brick Logik. Our project consisted of a custom bar area, fire pit, drainage for our pool, seat walls, stairs, led lighting, day bed area, and landscaping. We met with several other companies to design this project including JR's Creative Landscape, C.B. Conlin, CMS Landscape, and O'Donovan Landscape. 3 of those companies gave us design plans prior to us finding Brick Logik. All of the plans were nice but nothing special or unique which is what we were looking for. When we first met Adolfo I had a list of things that I wanted our outdoor space to accomplish such as a bar area, walkway to our spa, covered area for BBQ etc. When Adolfo finished his first design he met with us at our home and showed us his 3D concept which completely blew us away. Everything that we had asked him to accomplish into our design was part of his rendering, but it was even more creative than we could have ever imagined. He even built in elevation changes in our relatively flat back yard. Our project design period took roughly a month but we could tell that Adolfo was going above and beyond to make us something special and unique. He also was patient with us because we kept changing and tweaking things. We probably had a total of 5 meetings before finalizing a design that fit within our budget and signing a contract. Not one time did he act like we were wasting his time or pressure us to sign a contract before he would make more revisions. After calling some of the references provided, all of which had glowing things to say, we decided to choose Brick Logik. Since our project was so large, we had some issues with getting our permitting approved but Adolfo and Alex stuck with us and did everything they could to help us move it along until it finally reached approval. Once we got the permit they set a start date and we were provided a calendar with a day by day agenda on what was to be done. My wife and I have hired lots of contractors before and were never given such a detailed timeline. We actually thought that the timeline seemed impossible to meet because they only factored in 5 weeks, but they were there 10 hours a day and if the weather would not permit working they would come on the weekend to make up the time. They finished the project in exactly 5 weeks. I can honestly say I have never seen a harder working crew of guys, or a crew that took such great pride in the quality of the work they do. They cleaned up after themselves every day and the project was completed without any major roadblocks or setbacks. That being said, we had a couple minor issues. For example, one stair was collecting some rain water because it was not pitched correctly. I told Adolfo about it and instead of dancing around the issue he said don't worry we will fix it. The next day there were 3 guys outside taking out the stair and changing the pitch. I wish more companies were like this. These guys legitimately care about you being satisfied with your experience and the finished product, not just trying to make a quick buck and move on to the next customer. Highly recommend!”
