"Tony did a walk through and described how the job was going to get done. Then sent me a contract. He then did the job and left out a vital aspect of the job. Asked why a step was not performed as we discussed during the walk through of job. He stated, well that part was not in the contract. Also, had to call him many times and file a complaint to the BBB. Once the BBB complaint was filed. He came back to complete another portion of the job he never finished. By the way still trying to figure out how to remedy the issue I now have.

"David and Francisco did a great job covering my front stoop with brick pavers, creating an additional step, and adding brick paver aprons to my existing concrete walk. They also installed mulch in some of my plant beds. I am very pleased with their work. Don’t hesitate to hire."

"??HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE ???? When he came to the house he asked where the outlet was on the outside and I told him at the front of the house. When he got done he hung the lights with the male portion of the lights on the opposite end and the female to where the outlet was at the front. So there is was no way to connect the lights to the outlet outside in front of house. He decided to run extensions from that end through the garage. It would have taken 3 extension cords. We would be driving over the extension cords. I called him and told him it was not safe because we were driving over cords. He said he would come out that day and did not . Called back the next day said he would call me back. He did not Called back 4days later. He said he would come out but would have to charge me $50. I said no because you hung them the wrong way. He got rude and loud and said disrespected things about my husband. When I addressed him being disrespectful. He then said he is not coming out. And hung up!"

FAQs for landscape yard or garden installation projects in Downers Grove, IL

Well-maintained trees can add significant value to your property. Mature trees enhance curb appeal, provide shade, improve energy efficiency, and can increase property values by up to 10%. They also offer privacy, reduce noise pollution, and create a more inviting outdoor space, making your home more attractive to potential buyers.

The fastest-growing tree species include alder, rowan, silver birch, willow, cypress, and poplar. However, it’s best to consult with an arborist to choose trees that will thrive in your area, as they’re affected by climate. Otherwise, their growth may be stunted, and the trees may die. To reach their growth potential, trees need high-quality, nutrient-rich soil, ample space, and the right amount of water.

You should plant trees in the spring for the best chance at root development and recovery. Spring provides ample moisture and moderate temperatures, reducing the risk of transplant shock. While fall planting is possible, spring conditions are more likely to produce healthier trees, leading to thriving growth and a stronger root system.

Tree maturity significantly affects planting outcomes. Young trees take longer to mature but recover from transplanting with minimal root damage. Mature trees provide immediate benefits like shade, fruit, and improved curb appeal but may be more challenging to transplant. Consult a professional arborist to choose the right tree for your landscape goals.

A five-gallon tree is one grown in a five-gallon container, indicating a compact root ball and smaller size. These trees typically grow two to six feet tall, making them a manageable, cost-effective option. They also transplant easily and establish quickly with proper care, making them ideal for homeowners seeking immediate landscape improvement.

Tree costs vary significantly by species and size. Smaller, common species like a Colorado spruce may cost as little as $30, while ornamental and shade trees are often more expensive due to their size and planting complexity. The larger the tree, the higher your labor and transport fees will be, raising overall costs.
