Our yard is quite dated and very plain. I am looking to make some changes, such as putting in a brick patio in the back yard, adding a tree or 2, possibly replacing the hedges and walkway. I enjoy color in my yard 3 seasons of the year butI do NOT have a green thumb. I appreciate the plant it once and it comes back on its own year after year. Please let me know if you have any landscapers you would recommend who would be willing to help me draw up a plan and understand that cost wise, the plan may need to be spread out over a couple of years. - Thanks!
My future father-in-law,(grandfather to my three kids)has over
20 years of experience. He and his sons do all of the work and
have been doing my mother's yard for the past 5 years.Not only
will your yard look GREAT,it won't hurt your pocket book either! If you are serious and would like an estimate,please
contact be back and i can give you further info.

Hi Ginny,
I highly recommend Western Dupage Landscaping in Naperville for a larger job and a landscape architect. For a smaller projects Timberwolf Landscaping in Naperville is great! The owner Craig does a fantastic job with very reasonable prices. I have used both for several different projects.

Hi - I've worked with Neri Landscaping out of St. Charles. They've come out to my house in Aurora, near Fox Valley, so I would think north Naperville wouldn't be a problem. I had them do a retaining wall-type area in the front of my house with bushes & a tree. Then the next year I had them do a limestone path around my house to my patio. It was just what I wanted, and it's holding up really well! The owner is Geno Neri, and just tell him Jennifer I. from Aurora referred you! 630-443-4722 Good luck.

Hi Ginny,
My husband and I have our own landscape construction company - Outdoor Escapes Landscaping. We would love an opportunity to talk to you. We specialize in hardscapes, such as brick paver patios, outdoor kitchens, as well as landscape lighting, etc. Please feel free to give us a call at 630-826-9039. Hope to hear from you. : )
Hi Ginny,
I would highly recommend Strong Landscaping. They are based in Warrenville: (630) 871-2566. We hired Chris Strong and his crew to help with landscaping around our new home and to install a paver patio in our backyard and they did a terrific job. They're reasonably priced, very easy to work with, straightforward and friendly. Chris is great with suggestions--he takes pictures of the areas you want to landscape and then comes up with ideas he thinks you might like--he is very knowledgeable about what plants and trees work in different areas. We also are doing our landscaping over a couple years. Last year we just hired them to tear out all the old stuff, plant one tree and install the patio. This year we'll probably be looking for more decorative grasses to fill in all the bare spots!
Best of luck to you!
p.s. A neighbor of ours saw the work they were doing and hired them on the spot to install a new brick walkway at her own house.
Thank you everyone for your quick and helpful responses. I have much too look into but it is a fun task. I am new to Mamasource and very pleased with how it works!
Thanks again to everyone who responded!
