  John and his team were awesome. During an initial consultation to build a fire pit in my backyard, John was very thorough and considered all aspects of the yard (my garden, kids area, etc.) to make it cohesive. The work was done quickly and efficiently and I can now enjoy my patio and fire pit with friends and family! The expertise brought my vision to life. Definitely would recommend!

  JGS came out to redo the full landscaping in at our house in the city of Chicago. It's one of the long "Chicago" lots so he came to a blank canvas of just some grass in the front and back yard. John initially consulted with my wife and I to understand our requirements and vision and then came up with his plans for how to realize that vision. I have to admit that I was skeptical at first as some of the things he was proposing took awhile to sink in and for me to understand how it all fit together. Ultimately it would be a fence around part of our lot with a big gateway opening and then landscaping to fit the area, give some additional privacy, add lots of color, be low maintenance, and remove the "concrete" city feel. Once our fence was installed John and his team came out a few days later to get going on the project started. They moved sod, installed new trees and bushes (lots of flowering bushes), added mulch and rocks, moved some of our current shrubs, and ultimately it was better than I had even imagined. The project took two days and we're very happy with it and he continually checks back in to ensure things are still looking good and we're still happy. I'm going to have him come out again this fall to plant some additional items that didn't make sense to plant in the summer so I'm excited to see even more of his work and vision executed. I'll definitely be calling him again after that too.

  John & his crew did an incredible job of demo, design & install of my new backyard floor & wall pavers! His attention to detail to make sure everything came out as we desired was spot on! I trust his vision & in his ability to execute the plan!
