My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Artistry Landscape Design
Drought Tolerant Landscaping Companies in Chicago
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 17, 2025
“We had a wonderful experience working with Ruby Barnes at Artistry Landscape Design. Attentive Listening: Ruby was incredibly responsive to our request for sustainable ground cover. She truly heard our vision and translated it into a viable plan. Creative Solutions: She suggested a beautiful mix of hardy perennials, including flowering Bugleweed (Ajuga) and Lily of the Valley. To enhance what was already working, she added boxwoods that perfectly restored the symmetry of our garden. Fair & Reasonable: The design was thoughtful, and the pricing was very fair for the high quality of work provided. The Result: We are thrilled with our new front yard and highly recommend Ruby’s services!”
