T., I live in Downers Grove and I use a Mexican guy who works for Hinsdale Nursery. I do not go through Hinsdale Nursery, so I pay much less. If you're interested I can email you his name and cell phone. He speaks enough English to get by. He's a hard worker and did our lawn every week, plus I bought plants/trees at Hinsdale Nursery and he did all the planting, moving, etc. He works for about $15-20/hour, but he doesn't charge by the hour. I just tell him what I want, and he gives me a flat rate.

Hello!

I am a Landscape Designer and have a small woman-run company. I can build a design for you, then either show you how to do it yourself or refer you to some fantastic landscape companies who can do your work for a very reasonable price.

My thought is you shouldn't have to pay extreme prices for basic work.

Here is my Landscape Design Link online: http://www.thecasualgardener.com/LandscapeDesign.html

I do not have this link through from my home page any more as I am writing a book and am about to promote it, so I have been advised to focus only on the writing and television show on the main website, www.thecasualgardener.com. So if you are interested in the Landscape Design portion and want to go see pictures of some of my work, you will have to go to the exact Landscape Design link above.

Please feel free contact me through the website at ____@____.com

Best wishes!

S.

I can't give you a good recommendation, but I can tell you we had a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE experience with Monarch Outdoor Creations. It almost went to court - that's how bad.

Good Luck!

Hi T.,
I would highly recommend Strong Landscaping. They are based in Warrenville: ###-###-####. We hired Chris Strong and his crew to help with landscaping around our new home and to install a paver patio in our backyard and they did a terrific job. They're reasonably priced, very easy to work with, straightforward and friendly. Chris is great with suggestions--he takes pictures of the areas you want to landscape and then comes up with ideas he thinks you might like--he is very knowledgeable about what plants and trees work in different areas.
Best of luck to you!
p.s. A neighbor of ours saw the work they were doing and hired them on the spot to install a new brick walkway at her own house.
