Review by Patricia R. in Algonquin, IL
Project: Landscape Yard or Gardens
I had a great experience, I told Brent exactly what I wanted and what my budget was. He stayed under budget and I got a beautiful, impressive landscape design. He told me the instal. would begin in two weeks, and he followed up the night before the project began with an email. The plants were healthy, nicely shaped, and I got watering instructions. Overall I love my landscaping and very pleased it came under budget and I highly reccommend this company.

Review by Mark D. in Cary, IL
Project: Install Interlocking Pavers for Patios, Walks and Steps
Had a Unilock brick paver patio installed and was very impressed with the overall workmanship of the project. Inevitably unforseen issues pop up on projects such as this and Brent was always at the site in the mornings with the crew working out these details with us personally. He even put in some extra sod and dirt free of charge due to the extra mess because of rainy conditions. The crew was very polite and professional as well and they did a quality job, and showed up on time every morning and cleaned up every evening before leaving. I would say they are worth the money I spent on the patio for sure.

Review by William W. in Elgin, IL
Project: Landscape Yard or Gardens
We thought that Brent Johnson and his crew did a fabulous job in creating a beautiful new garden area combined with a seating area around a water feature. It is such a peaceful and serene area to sit and relax in now. It has changed the entire look of our backyard. Thanks so much again. Sue & Bill Waskiewicz
