This review originally had more information, some details of my complaints, photos, etc., that I…read morebelieve are accurate. I subsequently received a letter from a lawyer for this company threatening all kinds of legal hell and damnation if I did not remove the review. I believe that in a lawsuit I would ultimately prevail as I also believe the facts are on my side, but the costs of litigating can be oppressive. So for the time being I have removed the original test of this review and photos, while I decide if it's worth the costs of getting my own lawyer involved. Ask yourself do you want to do business with a company that when they receive complaints and bad reviews, gets their lawyers involved rather than engaging with the customer to resolve the issue or posting their own side of the story for the public to see?

Excellent company with outstanding customer support. We've been using Ricci's for the past 5+ years…read morefor a variety of projects. Landscape design, they install and maintain our irrigation/sprinkler system and do our weed, fertilizer and mosquito control spraying. Their in-office customer support staff is awesome; polite, professional and friendly. All of their technicians (including David who, at this moment, is repairing a sprinkler system pipe leak caused by another company) are well-trained, knowledgeable and efficient. They show-up when they say they will and do a great job when they're here. We're RLM people for life!

On occasion, yet quite seldom, I'll review those who are exceptional on either the best end of the…read morespectrum or those to be avoided. In this case, I've come across something quite rare. I've longed for years to be an in-ground pool owner despite being a city-dweller. Water makes me happy. When COVID hit, the market got flooded with all sorts of hybrid pools and hot tubs called swim spas, and other manufacturers grew the market with urban pools made of modular units that builders use now for houses and pools. Good luck finding installers, someone to get permits from the city, and year-round servicing for many of these newfangled contraptions. Yet, if you still wanted a traditional in-ground pool, finding a contractor that provides soup-to-nuts design, installation, and permitting that does work in the city of Chicago without charging a major mark-up was nowhere to be found. If you've always dreamt of turning your urban backyard into a peaceful oasis for family and friends to gather, give these folks a call. You won't be disappointed. Promise!

My husband & I hired Dean and his Team to install a pool and patio, along with landscaping. We had…read morea great experience throughout the entire process.

Just wanted to share this information. Briggs tree service IL 708 895 9576 IN 219 513 0872…read more Now the story behind. In the storm we had a tree land on the house, trying to find someone to remove it we asked and call around. My husband is a guy that looks at reviews he found Mr. Steve Briggs yelp rating and was amazed at how high it was so I call but just as we I called the company that was cutting down the BIG tree here on Strieff came by to check on our tree so I hung up the phone. Before the person could leave our home Mr. Briggs called me back so I told him for calling but we had just made a deal with this other company. Now this company told me they would be back in the morning I was pleased with this because I wanted this tree off my house. Ok, rise and shine with the next morning hopefully all will go well. So I start the waiting and waiting now it is 12 something so I text this company that is going to cut the tree. I ask can you give me a time, I get a text back 5 or 6 that evening. At this point I text Mr. Briggs and send him some pictures. This man Mr. Briggs called me back he asked questions had I given money or signed anything I told him no he was pleased. He asked who was doing the job I told him. At this point I said I would cancel them and wait for him he said no they were not the best but they were capable of doing the job and as busy as all the tree services were keep the bird in the hand as even his company would be 3 to 4 days getting to us. But he than said he would come by when they were doing the job and my husband saw him drive past, then he called to ask if the did the job I said yes but they didn't trap the two big holes in the roof this man gave me the number of a roofer. Wow kinds and care without get anything.

I have had the pleasure of reworking their branding in the past few years and have called them friends for far more. I know their hard work extends beyond being out on the job: if they aren't out doing client work they are at their shop fixing equipment, cutting/stacking logs for firewood, and making sure their business runs as smooth as possible for the next day or season ahead.

Due to owner "duh" moment, MIKE & KEVIN could not mow my backyard because the gate was locked and I…read morewas not home. The office tried to call me, but SAMSUNG disabled my voicemail and switched to Google Messaging. So, they mowed the front.

I have been coming back here for a couple years now. I first got a plum tree from here that I won…read moreat a Rotary of Park Forest auction. The tree was healthy and pretty big. They gave me recommendations on watering and planting. When I followed those, the tree turned out great and my kids love eating the plums every summer. I recently went back for a couple Bald Cypress trees. They had plenty in stock. (Even if they didn't they have always ordered and received the plants in short time.). The trees are doing well The owners are ready to help and the customer service is great. They know their plants and will give you suggestions based on shade, no shade, soil type and proper planting. They even went the extra mile to help me secure the plants in my car and wrap the pot, so dirt didn't get on the inside of my car. Driving a car with three full plants inside was interesting. But I didn't take the option for them to deliver.
