We hired J.D., owner of Green City Gardens, to design & install a large landscaping project at our…read morehome. We couldn't have been more satisfied with how it turned out - here's why: 1) Expertise: J.D. used his deep knowledge of botany to recommend an ecosystem of plants that were not only stunning to look at, but that fit together in their respective planting beds in size, shape, color & texture, and bloomed at different times to ensure we had spectacular color from spring to fall. 2) Efficient: Installation of the plants was seamless. His crew was professional and competent. 3) Responsive: A few of the plants needed replacing after the frigid temps & harsh winter of 2024. J.D. immediately replaced them with no questions asked. The most important question one should ask themselves about their experience with any contractor they've done business with is - would you hire them again? Answer: we wouldn't hire anyone else but J.D. for our landscaping needs, especially knowing how important beautiful landscaping can be to maximizing the value of our home.

With a work ethic like that, I am thankful I did not persue anything with this company. "Don't spend a dime, if they ain't got the time." Scary to think of the terrible possibilities.

Thank you to the JGM team -- you made our vision come to life and we love it!

We undertook this project with a great deal of trepidation. Our 60-year old concrete driveway was…read morein sore need of replacement. We obtained several estimates and decided to go with a well-established contractor, Pavestone Brick Paving, based on their reputation and experience. (We decided against hiring landscapers who also installed pavers even though their quotes were somewhat lower.) We visited some paver driveways that Pavestone constructed in our village and were impressed with the quality of their work. We also were bolstered by a visit to their facility in Des Plaines where we met the office staff and viewed the construction equipment. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and pleasant. We worked with Sergio, and I was completely satisfied with the service that he provided. From his initial visit to our house, through the discussions of the quotation, and conversations during the ongoing work, he displayed a pleasant demeanor and maintained contact with us, by phone and email. I felt quite comfortable working with him. He made useful suggestions during the planning process, such as rerouting the lower section of our downspouts below ground to discharge into our yard. I was also pleased that he was able to replace an unneeded section of our old driveway with sod. He provided samples of paver stones to assist us in choosing the best fit for our house and even created computer-generated renderings, depicting our house and driveway with the selected pavers installed (see photo). The job began about a month after we signed the contract. The crew of 5 men, led by Hector, worked tirelessly over a period of 6.5 days, in heat and occasional (light) rain, leading to a very attractive outcome. Each worker knew exactly what to do, and the team did their job in concert like a well-oiled machine. (See the photos which depict the progress of the project, from start to finish.) We are quite pleased with the outcome; the result is an attractive driveway that has become the envy of my neighbors. I have received many compliments from them in the days following completion. In summary, Pavestone Brick Paving transformed the worn and aged look of our driveway and walkways into an aesthetically appealing complement to our house's facade. I give them my highest recommendation.

I normally don't write reviews unless a company does an exceptionally poor job. My belief is…read moresimple, when you pay someone a good amount of your hard earned money, the job should be done right. There are exceptions, though, and Lisa is definitely one of them. Obviously, Lisa and her team did a fantastic job with the landscaping. She presented me with three different design options, worked with me to stay within my budget, and then executed the project exactly as she explained she would. She even moved my project up on the schedule after I mentioned I was planning to sell my house soon, which I really appreciated. What really stood out, though, wasn't just the quality of the work, it was the communication. It was clear, transparent, and consistent before, during, and even after the project. That level of professionalism is surprisingly rare in the home improvement industry. I own a house that was built in 1887, and over the past eight years I've hired countless companies for projects including a new deck, porch, fencing, painting, paver installation, and just about everything else you can think of. One of the most frustrating parts of working with companies in this industry is the lack of organization and communication. They're usually quick to collect the deposit, but after that you're left constantly following up for project start dates, updates, and progress. Working with Lisa was the complete opposite. She was organized, proactive, and always kept me informed. It was honestly refreshing. If you want to roll the dice and deal with the same frustrations I experienced with two other landscaping companies before finding Lisa, go for it. But if you'd rather save yourself the time, stress, and uncertainty, do yourself a favor and call Lisa. I couldn't recommend her more.

She then took those and made three very detailed designs in video format. From there we went back and forth a few times as I wanted a combination of designs. Throughout the entire process Lisa was patient and also answered several questions I had about plants. She oversaw the installation and came back the next day to tidy everything up. The installation went very smoothly and we are in love with our new front yard and parkway. I highly recommend Lisa for any landscaping projects! We also love supporting small businesses and are happy we went with Lisa.
