Carlos Montano and his great crew replaced our decaying wood deck with a stunningly beautiful patio…read morecomplete with ALL of the artistic touches: colored accent brick on both the floor and seat walls, LED photo-cell lights (with the necessary electric components- transformers and timers, etc.), bullet lights for our trees, pillars, curved walls, and decorated steps leading down from the house doors. Although my husband and I came up with the main color scheme, Carlos was able to take it to the next level AND keep everything within budget for a really big job. Carlos and his men were timely, professional, courteous and dedicated to the task at hand. From demolition on day one to the final walk-through, we have not been disappointed. The end result is absolutely glorious. I cannot recommend Montano's Landscaping enough- if you want some of the best work in the northeastern Illinois area, this is your company to call. Don't wait- make the upgrades you've always wanted and go with these pros! They're WONDERFUL!

From coming up with the design to guiding me in selecting the materials, he was top notch. There was one concern due to an issue the city inspector had, but Carlos had his crew out literally the next day to resolve it. I have to say the way they responded to that was above and beyond and that is the mark of a good company. Overall, the quantity of work was exceptional . You won't be disappointed if you hire Montanos.

Working with Dawn and Jess was a great experience. Due to uncontrollable weather conditions, our…read moreproject was delayed a few months. During this time we decided to make some additional changes, sending them several e-mails. They responded quickly with patience, understanding and great suggestions and insights. The crew was attentive to detail and considerate of our property. Once the project was completed, we had some additional questions. Dawn responded every time! While we found a few other companies that were less expensive, remember the old adage, "you get what you pay for!" Rooted is well worth the investment!

Pros - The quote Fernando gave me was fair, and he and his team did a decent job…read more Cons - If he agrees to do the job, be prepared to be ghosted or have your time wasted. He came a day later than he told me he would, without telling me ahead of time. Replaced my mulched area with gravel without telling me. He also left a giant pile of gravel on my lawn for a full day, killing a big patch of grass. I needed paver bricks laid, and he rebuilt pillars on the patio without telling me. While rebuilding the pillars, he cut the wire that was connected to light fixtures that are on top of the pillars. Fernando would not admit that he cut the wire, but I confirmed with an electrician that there is no power running to the end of those wires, so they were cut along the way. After weeks of calling Fernando and asking him to come out to take a look at the light fixtures, he either never responded or ghosted me. Stay safe and spend a little more money to have work done by people that won't damage your property and won't waste your time.

I have had two joint replacement surgeries in the last 9 months so I needed help. I don't know what their landscape design skills are because I had already decided what plants I wanted. I picked up plants from 2 nurseries. Saved him time and me money. ( It is later in the year and I had a hard time finding everything at one.) He suggested Hinsdale Nursery whose size of shrubs were amazing. Also had luck at Wasco in St. Charles. I placed where I wanted them and J&C had everything planted and mulched in half a day. They also removed 3 older (large) shrubs. They are VERY hard workers and Javier couldn't be nicer to work with. Always wants to make sure the customer is happy with the job. Responds by text within very reasonable amount of time (you need to consider the day and time you are texting as he is doing work also). Nice weather the first time (in 70's) This second project is re-grading a path and laying stepping stones. Also adding sod where necessary and blending with the other lawn in the area that is not being replaced. The weather is horribly hot and humid (in the 90's) and they are doing a great job. I would definitely use them again. Highly recommend.

Adam, the owner, responded almost immediately letting me know that he was booked through July. I loved the fact that a) he responded at all vs just ignoring the request, b) was upfront and honest about his timeline vs just taking the job and overextending himself. Once I told him that we were in no rush, and would be happy to wait, he proceeded to text back and forth with me helping me get an idea as to what the job might cost. He made recommendations about plants, etc....and all this without officially having secured my business. Towards the end of July, I reached back out to see what his timeline looked like. Again, he responded almost immediately. He apologized for not getting back to me sooner, and said he would come out to measure the area, and discuss the job in more detail. In my mind, he had absolutely nothing to apologizing for. He set a date to come out, came out exactly at the time he promised, and helped us figure out what would look good. He provided a written, detailed estimate, which he adhered to...we paid exactly what he quoted. On the day of the job, he showed up as promised and on time. He laid out all of the plants, and allowed us to move them around several times until we got everything exactly the way we wanted it. His team worked quickly and neatly. The end results are amazing! I literally couldn't be any happier with this company. If I could give more than five stars, I would
