It's been several years since we worked with F Gomez to design and build our patio, and we couldn't be happier. They worked closely with us to explore the various design and materials options, including trade offs and cost implications. We landed on brick pavers, which complement our home beautifully. The service and installation were first rate, and the pricing was very fair. Highly recommend. read more

We renovated our home in Logan Square and the process absolutely destroyed our yard. We are so glad we found Kris and F Gomez to bring it back to life. First of all, we needed some serious grading. Not only was our ground not level, but we needed to build up the ground near the house by about six inches. We also needed to connect the sidewalk to the back deck in this same area and do it in a way that would drain water away from the house. F Gomez nailed it. They put in a drain system underground starting near our downspout that carries rain water to a planted hydrangea. Then they did the most precise paver work I've ever seen and laid sod in both the front and back yard. They also ripped out the concrete near our front steps and laid down new beautiful blue stone pavers (once again fixing a previous grading issue that caused water to puddle at our steps). Look at the before and after pics - they speak for themselves. Then consider that they did it all in less than three full days. Plus, Kris was easy to work with and the crew was punctual and friendly. To top it all off, I thought they were fairly priced. Don't hesitate. Just call Kris. She'll make it easy. Update: added photos of the sod 3 weeks later - it's full and green and gorgeous. read more

Kris and her team were wonderful. I couldn't have been happier with the service and the finished product. As a top real estate agent in Chicago I can only begin to tell you how difficult its been to get companies to be responsive let alone professional for myself or my clients during the pandemic, Kris and her team covered all of the bases. As business owner, I fully appreciate the need for my clients to refer me if I have given them a WOW experience and that is just what I have done for Kris and F Gomez Landscaping. I referred them to some of my closest friends and I will continue to refer them to the thousand plus clients I have acquired in 16 years of selling real estate in Chicago and the Chicagoland area. The scope of the project is described in the pictures. Out home on the nwside of Chicago has a 10,000+ sq ft lot with 5000-6000 sq ft in the backyard. read more

I have had Kris do two projects for us. First was pavers in the backyard last year during covid, this year a paver extension, new sod and a tree addition to parkway.

Completed the work in a day, check. They are a female locally owned and operated business, which makes me feel like I'm actually giving back to the community directly. Truly a positive experience and will continue to utilize their business in the future. read more

We are very pleased with the job Kris and her team did on our front yard. We wanted to transform our grass into a pollinator-attracting garden. She exceeded our expectations and worked with us to stay within our budget. The work was done in one full day and we've received numerous compliments from neighbors and passerbys. The team was efficient, tidy, and friendly and respected personal space/social distancing. From the initial request for a quote last summer to following up this spring, communication was prompt and thorough. Kris listened to what we described and came up with a design that fit perfectly. She even recommended where we could go to get plants ourselves to fill in some space and save some money by doing it ourselves. We will be keeping them in our back pocket in case we have any questions or projects in the future. I highly recommended F Gomez Landscaping! read more

We contacted F. Gomez Landscapers to redo our existing brick patio and create a new brick patio and walkway from our garage to our house Kris, Project Manager at F. Gomez reached out to us right away. Kris worked with us to try to match our existing patio bricks with the new bricks needed for the new brick walkway. We were impressed by the fact that F. Gomez was willing to work with our existing bricks as previous brick paver contractors we contacted for estimates advised us that they could not use our bricks. In any case Kris wasn't able to match perfectly the sidewalk brick color with our existing patio brick but we love the look of the new sidewalk, she saved us money by utilizing our existing brick, and she went out of her way to please us. The work crew arrived as promised on 11/17/2023 to perform the job. They completed paving the new patio and brick walkway, and did a beautiful job on November 17, 2023. You will not be disappointed if you hire F Gomez. F. Gomez does quality work and will work with you to achieve the results you want at a competitive rate. The work crew was very professional, and left our property spotless after completing the job, and even laid out in a pleasing design some slate landscaping stones we owned after completing the patio. We are so happy with their work that we want them to come back in the spring to install a new brick pathway on the side-yard of our home. You will be happy too if you hire F Gomez for your brick patio and sidewalk paving. read more

I'm giving a two-star review, instead of one, only because they responded to my request for a quote in a timely manner, and were very polite. I have two narrow strips next to my garage, plus one long strip in my gangway, all three strips already cleared, leveled and prepared to receive gravel. But because I don't have a place for the gravel suppliers to 'dump' it off the back of their truck, I was looking for a quote to have someone bring it in their own truck, then into my backyard one wheel barrel at a time. That was the only work needed. Absolutely nothing else. Along with the photos of where I needed to have the gravel unloaded, I also sent screenshots from an online 'how much gravel do I need' calculator, which gave the exact amounts of gravel required in both cu yards and tonnage. I want to note that the gravel supplier would have charged a $99 delivery fee, and the price of the gravel, itself, would have cost me less than $50. The quote I received from Gomez, although certainly expected to be higher, was a whopping $787! When I responded by email to say I'd have to take a pass, I received a reply, undoubtedly meant to be helpful, that said, "Sorry we couldn't be of service. at least now you know how many yards you need to get the job done. now you can just ask for 4.1/2 yards of pea gravel installed. may go quicker when you are asking around." And here we have the reason for my review; they quoted me for 4.5 yards of gravel, instead of the 2.6 I needed, and which was clearly stated in my original request, if the amount for the three separate strips were simply added together properly. This means the quote they calculated for me would have meant paying for almost double the cost of supplies and labor. I wrote them back to tell them exactly this, thinking they may send me a more accurate estimate, but to my surprise, they defended their original quote with an explanation that STILL didn't make any sense: "you are doing it in tons not in yards which is what all the places around here sell by. 240sqft @ 1" deep, 120sqft @ 2" deep , 80sqft @ 3" deep , 60sqft @ 4" deep. This is how we calculate all our bulk materials" The thing is, though, I included BOTH cu yards AND tonnage in my request; clear as day! To give you an idea of how much they were off, the difference between what I actually needed and what they were going to charge me for would have been no less than an extra FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS of stone!!! read more

I used Kris and F Gomez Landscaping for removing the tired brick patio from my yard and adding a beautiful new one, along with new sod for front and back as well as landscaping in the front for my Logan Square home. Kris is beyond amazing! She is an expert in the field, listens to your needs and gives suggestions when needed to make everything come together. She responded to me right away and was out the same day to give a quote! I was getting quotes from a few people and the project is now finished and still have not heard back from one of the other companies. I had an idea of what I wanted from a picture and she knew the brand and pricing immediately but also gave me comparison quotes on other pavers to keep everything on budget. I did end up with the ones I originally wanted and could not be happier with the result. I had sentimental value for a few potted plants and she incorporated those into the landscape design. The guys are wonderful, they work so fast and clean everything up before they leave. I highly recommend this team! read more

We recently hired Kris and her team based upon the recommendation of our landscape designer to replace our crumbling hardscape.

It was such a pleasure to work with Kris and her team. We had 5 different contractors out to five quotes and designs. The first thing that stood out to me was that Kris stayed within our budget, listened to everything we wanted for our backyard and was willing to work in stages with us (we'll do phase 2 next year with them). Her team was extremely respectful, they cleaned up everyday, delivered a complete backyard rehab in a weeks time and exceeded our expectations. She is very easy to work with. I highly recommend them and will continue our relationship for future projects. read more

Emily is a professional. Punctual, thorough and offered expert opinion to my many naive and newbie questions regarding landscaping. The quote was prompt and on time. Aside from a slight hiccup with missing an appointment notification, they scheduled me 2 weeks sooner than I had anticipated, tore out 3 brushes and an overgrown bush that looked like a tree, laid down new sod that looks beautiful and purchased a hose and sprinkler on my behalf to save me time ALL in half a day.

Our backyard was atrocious in many ways. The original landscape deteriorated very quickly so we received 3 quotes from landscapers and all were very close in price. When Kris came out to quote the project, she provided several options and ideas as we also needed synthetic grass under our deck to replace the river rock. She was very responsive in all of our communication and the project turned out better than expected. This is a true professional landscape company that takes immense pride in their work. Kris also gave us all the instructions to maintain our fresh new sod. I highly recommend F Gomez landscape for any outdoor project. read more

I called for an appointment and they responded swiftly. They arrived on time, were very knowledgeable and made a ton of recommendations about how to best add a lawn to my small Chicago backyard. The estimate was very reasonable - only slightly more than another company and but the service, estimate and advise was so thorough and detailed that we went with FGomez. Emily and her crew were early, brought top quality plants and sod, and did the whole job in a matter of hours. The team lead by 'Gas' we're very nice and professional. It's been more than a week and the grass is beautiful and thriving. I totally trust this crew and look forward to working with them again. A+++ use this service!!! read more
