We recently completed a full landscape and hardscape project, including a permeable paver walkway and the results exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, the craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding. The paver installation is precise and beautifully aligned, thoughtfully executed, and the lighting design we installed completely transformed our home at night. The warm uplighting and pathway lights create both elegance and safety, highlighting architectural details and landscaping in a way that feels high-end and intentional. What impressed me most was the professionalism, communication, and pride in workmanship. Every detail mattered -- and it shows. Our home now looks polished, cohesive, and elevated. If you are looking for a contractor who delivers quality, precision, and true curb appeal transformation, I highly recommend them. read more

When we bought the house a few years ago, there was just an old small concrete slab patio, and most of the backyard was wet/muddy for most of the spring so we hardly even spent time back there. Last year we decided it was time to upgrade and found Daniel based on other reviews. He and his team installed french drains and a new patio with seat walls, lighting, and an amazing gas fire pit. Daniel and his team were right on time every day, ready to go. They worked through one of the rainiest springs we've had in a while... but they still showed up and did a great job. We went from completely wasted backyard space to having an amazing place to hang out and have friends and family over. read more

Daniel made or brick patio and front walkway look like new. His crew is well organized and clean.He is a master at his craft. I hope to extend our area for another patio for him to build. Glad we found the right guy for brick work. read more

They did an amazing job with a patio at an investment property I have. They raised the patio and used the existing bricks. It was in rough shape before and now it looks new. I am beyond happy with their work. Also, I used them for drainage work at my primary residence in the past and no more drainage issues there. I highly recommend them! read more

We had Daniel and his team redo our 20 year old brick patio and put in a new brick walk way. I didn't think the patio could be salvaged. Daniel said it could be. His team dug up each brick, did their magic with a whole new foundation underneath, and then put the bricks back. Then pressure washed and sealed the bricks. It is absolutely amazing! It looks brand new. I could not be more impressed. And the new walkway is absolutely stunning. His work is fabulous! read more

Daniel and his crew did an excellent job removing and rebuilding our paver stone front stoop, as well as modifying and repairing our paver stone patio. It was very evident that each worker took pride in doing a great job. When the job ended up being more involved than originally estimated, they did what was necessary to do the job right and still came in at budget. Thank you!! read more

After receiving a few mind-blowingly high quotes for our front walkway redo, I turned to YELP for guidance. I thought that there had to be someone in the Western Suburbs who would do a good job at a fair price. Daniel was that person. He is so skilled, hard-working, and professional, and he and his staff did a phenomenal job on my front walkway. Every time I walk out the front door, I'm struck by how nice it looks. Thank you so much to Daniel (and to YELP) for such a beautiful, professional job. You made our family very happy! read more

We've had a water issue with our basement since we've owned our house -- approximately 7 years. We've had 2 different interventions done to try and resolve the issue: new sump and backup pumps, and even re-routing drain lines around our house. Daniel at My Landscape Contractor proposed a solution involving a French drain that was less expensive and less invasive than alternatives we'd had proposed. It was half the price of some of the much more invasive approaches proposed by waterproofing and other landscaping companies. To be honest, I was a little skeptical -- how had no one else come up with this? Daniel and his team did the work efficiently, fixing issues that arose during the project, and ultimately giving us an attractive plot of fresh sod with a hidden French drain underneath. And best of all: during the last two days of rainstorms, we have had ZERO water in our basement. And the rain was INTENSE. This was the stress test I waited to see before writing the review. I highly recommend Daniel at My Landscape Contractor!! read more

Great service. Excellent response.can reply have used them for years.excellent snow removal and shoveling too.

We had some major issues with water "ponding" in our back yard. MLC put in some French drains in May of 2017. Did a nice job, infilled with dirt, graded, seeded after completion and covered the seed with the hay moisture-saving mats. I watered for about a month and grass grew in very thick. Anyways, we have had as you all know several rain events this summer and crazy accumulations. While the pond still forms in the low area, it drains quickly (few hours). Also put a French drain along a low spot on the east side of the house that works well too. Bottom line, MLC and crew did a great job in two days and left little or no mess. I would highly recommend them. They also did some minor paver re-work and sealed our pavers. read more

We hired Daniel and his crew to tear down an existing wooden deck and design and install a paver patio and firepit in our backyard. They did an exceptional job. Daniel's design included using permeable pavers to solve issues with pooling rainwater and working around buried lines/pipes for our inground pool. He also provided a 3D video prior to installation that looked exactly like the finished product. His was quick to respond to questions and concerns throughout the project. I have recommended him to neighbors and friends and give him a 5 star rating here as well. read more

Daniel did a great job installing our new brick patio, fire pit and French drain. The entire job was done in 3 days. The only reason he didn't get 5 stars was because in the process, a couple main sprinkler lines needed to be cut. He did tell us ahead of time, however, and said not to worry as he had someone that could do the repair (Salinas and Sons). Salinas turned out to be an unreliable and actually a more expensive vendor. After chasing Salinas, they finally quoted and scheduled the repair. BUT they didn't show up...and didn't reschedule - so we were left on our own to solve. read more

I started on a retaining wall myself and underestimated the complexity to be sure the wall would be level. I had the trench dug and materials already at the house, but decided I needed someone professional to come finish the job. I called Daniel (on Memorial Day weekend ) and he called me back that night and showed up the next day, Memorial Day, to give me a quote. His price was fair and he was able to get out the next week. He and his team did incredible work and finished in 1 day. Daniel talked through everything and is very knowledgeable. They left the yard clean and even put down grass seed in front of the wall. I would highly recommend Daniel and "My Landscape Contractors" and I will likely be using them again in the future. read more

We hired Daniel a second time to rebuild a back retaining garden wall. He did a terrific job, managing to reuse the old stones we had, which saved us money and also kept that section of the yard looking more like the rest of the yard. I should add that Daniel had done earlier work on rebuilding a slate outdoor landing. He did a great job on that, but we wanted him to redo a small section, narrowing the gaps between two stones. Whereas most contractors would have blown off our request, Daniel took care of the fix we needed free of charge. He is honest, responsible and stands by his work. What more can one ask for? We'd definitely hire him again! read more

Daniel and his team did an outstanding job on our new paver patio, staircases and French drain. He was always accessible, ready to answer questions, and did a great job. His team was prompt, nice and very knowledgeable. This was not a small project and his team did not disappoint. We've also had some follow-up questions / work to do related to some electric on the stairs and he's been very open and helpful with us in working towards a solution. read more

My husband and I were SO proud of the awesome garden wall we built in front of our home in 2011....however, Chicago winters and rains did not like the wall as much, so they knocked it down. I had contacted a different company about coming to fix the wall, but after months and months of back-and-forth, I got frustrated and just wanted our embarrassing front wall fixed. One Saturday afternoon in September, I went to Yelp and found Daniel's company. I sent an email and heard back that same day from Daniel. He asked for some pictures of our broken-down wall and provided a quote only hours after my initial email (a lower quote than we were given by the other contractor I was going to use, by the way). His crew was even able to start earlier than the agreed-upon day, and when I showed them our sad paver patio in the backyard, Daniel gave me some (very fair) options to fix or re-build that patio as well. In less than a week from my first email to Daniel, we had a BEAUTIFUL new garden wall in front that is longer and higher than our original AND a paver patio in back that looks brand new. We get compliments all the time on how nice everything looks, and the pricing is extremely fair. I am so happy I contacted My Landscape Contractor, and I know I will be calling Daniel many times in the future to help us with landscaping and other "curb appeal" projects that we have. I highly recommend Daniel and his crew - timely, professional, friendly, and they do fantastic work! Our neighbors, our house, and we thank you so much, Daniel! read more

Can't say enough good things about Daniel. He came out to quote me on tearing out my deck, re-grading my backyard, putting in a french drain, raising the window wells, some new landscape bushes, and a new brick patio. He was probably the 3-4 person I had come out to quote, and I knew right away I would hire him. He knew EXACTLY what I was asking for, and was confident in doing the work (not the case with the others). I was having water issues in my basement, and thus the regrade/swale of the property, etc. He handled the filing for permits with the village for me which was a nice surprise. Everything went EXACTLY as he said it would. Once the village approved the plans, and we were ready, the work began when he said it would, and finished quickly, neatly, and on time. (so often that just doesnt happen). No surprises in price or work. In fact, he was even nice enough to save some bushes I decided to keep at the last minute and replant them for me as directed... FOR NO CHARGE. I will definately have him back out in the Fall to do some work out front. Seriously, you will not be disappointed. Call him today and get your yard in order!!! . read more

I contacted Daniel to re-do my paver patio. It had sunken and needed resetting of bricks. Daniel and his crew came out and did a fantastic job. We discussed what needed to be done and as the work progressed he kept me updated on changes that would be benefitful to the job. Very professional and very pleased with finished job. read more

Daniel and his team completed a french drain project in my back yard about a month ago. The entire process from our first meeting to agree on a scope of work, followed by pricing and scheduling and finally the the actual work, was performed on time and very professionally. I could not be happier with how Daniel handled the whole process. read more

I recently hired Daniel for a home project to redo a large amount of landscape & patio bricks that was in bad need of repair and to add a fire pit area to my patio. Daniel is very professional and his team did a great job on the entire project. He did exactly what he said he would do and for a reasonable price. The results look amazing. I would definitely hire Daniel again for future needs and would recommend his business. read more

We found My Landscape Contractor and Daniel through Yelp as I have had quite a bit of luck hiring vendors on Yelp this year. Our front stoop of paving bricks had become uneven & loose and needed a new foundation. All the vendors I called were right around the same price but Daniel came out the same day I called him and I found that impressive. He did a wonderful professional job in the time frame we needed and we are very pleased with the work. I would surely call My Landscape Contractor back again! read more

I used My Landscape Contractor to build a paver patio. They did a great job and left the jobsite clean at the end of the project. Daniel discussed all questions I had at the start of the project and throughout the project. Would definitely recommend and use them again in the future. read more

I contacted Daniel to restore a front stoop and backyard patio. The work was performed on schedule and within budget. During the process Daniel was on site performing the work with his employees. He additionally explained what he wanted to accomplish and how he was going to do it. Daniel exceeded my expectations and was a excellent find for stone work, especially fixing other contractors mistakes. I have dealt with two other contractors over the pass 12 years and in comparison Daniel was the most experienced and detail orientated. I am going to use his services next year for a landscaping upgrade on my property. read more

Daniel and his team do great work! They installed an amazing paver patio for us last year. The design and construction are top notch. He and his crew are reliable and all are very hard working and polite. Daniel did the landscaping design too. We had a few issues with some of the plantings, but he promptly and professionally addressed our concerns and corrected the problems. I have had an experience with other contractors that do the work but won't stand behind it. The thing I respect most about Daniel is he stands behinds his work and makes sure you are satisfied with your project. I would trust him to do any project at my home. read more

Work was just completed today by Daniel and his crew, and we were very pleased! Our stone patio has been re-leveled and power washed... And it looks like new. The few retaining walls that we had rebuilt also look amazing. Daniel's crew worked fast, they were on time and worked all day, and did an amazing job! Daniel, himself, was easy to communicate with all throughout the process. He even went above and beyond in certain circumstances to ensure that we were happy with the job done. Highly recommend My Landscape Contractor. read more

We hired Daniel to rebuild our front porch as the old blue stone was crumbling and dangerous. He did a terrific job of rebuilding the stoop and left the site clean. His prices were reasonable and the job started the week he said it would. He worked swiftly and efficiently, as well. We will happily hire him again for future work, and recommend him. read more

We used My Landscape Contractor for the first time last fall to have some work done on our old paver patio which was in rough shape. They did a great job! Our neighbors even commented on how nice it looked, and asked for Daniel's info. We then hired them again this spring to do some landscaping, planting, work. It turned out beautiful and we love our yard now! :) Daniel was great with ideas, answering questions throughout, and the team was efficient and always left the jobsite clean at the end of the project. We would definitely recommend and use them again in the future!! read more

This company did an extraordinary job. They were prompt in setting up and keeping an appointment for an estimate. They were true to their estimate. When scheduling their work, they were flexible with my schedule. They did beautiful work and cleaned up and left everything in a perfect state. I am so pleased! Rarely do I find a company that is this reliable and capable. Thank you Daniel and your crew. read more
