Sylvia's Landscaping Company, LLC
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Cook County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2017
“Sylvia's Landscaping was all around terrific. They were always on time and within a very reasonable budget. Her expert workers were polite and went a little beyond their job of a spring (and later, fall) landscape cleanup for a good size property with lots of garden beds. They knew pruning and the finer touches of landscape and plant care. I'd highly recommend them.”

Poul's Landscaping & Nursery, Inc.
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Cook County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars17 May 2016
“I highly recommend this company! Poul's has done all of our landscaping design and installation since our house was built. We have used their services several times during our phased-in landscaping approach. Their very talented landscape architects' designs are beautiful and they take the time to meet with you to determine the best plan for your specific area, tastes, lifestyle and budget. I really like the fact that they have their own nursery and you can walk their property with a professional to pick out just the right tree or shrub if you want. The trees they planted for us several years ago were amazing and continue to thrive providing us with beautiful shade in just the right spot. Most recently, we've cleared out a brush line and Poul's designed and installed new flowering bushes and perennials which have completely changed the look of our back yard.”

Apple Landscaping
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Cook County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 June 2017
“Needing an architectural drawing for a design that fit our unique back yard area and then a quality company to complete the work, I received a glowing reference to consider Apple Landscaping for our Patio options. Once we met with them and then reviewed what they could build, it was an easy decision. More importantly, the quality of work and materials used, the ease of making choices to add or delete certain features created a highly collaborative team to ensure that the project went smoothly and as expected and our final product was as we envisioned. Keith and Monique are total professionals and were there consistently to ensure timelines were met and I, the customer was satisfied. I have recommended Apple to everyone I know who is considering any Hardscape work. This is one HIGH quality company and they are totally Customer focused. I couldn't be happier.”
Twig Landscape Design, LLC
Landscape Architects & Contractors in Cook County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars18 June 2016
“My firm, Greenheart Buildings Inc. (d.b.a. Arrow-wood Timber Frame Homes), engaged Twig Landscape Design to develop a multi-phase design for a remodel in River Forest which is now underway. We were impressed by Michelle's ability to understand and represent our client's needs in her final design. We are looking forward to putting the landscaping in place, once the other roofing and siding aspects of the remodel have been competed. We highly recommend Twig Landscape Design.”
