    Driveway just seal coated
    Pam K.

    This is my second time using them to sealcoat my driveway and my parent's driveway . They are dependable. They come out when they say they're going to be. Definitely worth it. Driveway looks great. Worth the money.

    Tada done just like that! Our home is unrecognizable! What a difference! Rafael & his crew, are the epitome of true professionalism!! Highly recommend!!!! Thank you!

    Fantastic work! Excellent workmanship. Great pricing. Thorough and on time. Poured concrete stairs and sealed the parking lot they installed previously. Highly recommend.

    My driveway was in need of some TLC after years of brutal IL summers and winters. What's more, the curb going up the driveway has always been brutal. If you weren't awake to start the day via coffee, hitting your head against the top of the car when driving over the curb would definitely do the trick. I reached out to Guardian to ask about getting rid of the curb and options for the driveway itself. They responded right away and provided two estimates: one for just a seal coat, and one to tear up the old driveway, clip the curb going up the driveway, and pour fresh asphalt for the driveway. The prices for both options were reasonable and on par with competitors. After reading so many other positive reviews on Yelp about Guardian, I decided to go with them. I opted to make the larger investment of clipping the curb and replacing the driveway. The whole thing was said and done in 3 days and I couldn't be more delighted by the results. The driveway is gorgeous and smooth. And now entering and exiting the driveway is seamless! I've posted a few after photos for reference. I'll absolutely be a repeat customer to help maintain this investment. The quality of work, professionalism of the team, and integrity of the company is clear.

    Excellent quality. Very efficient. Very clean. I heartily recommend this company. Thanks, Carl Metoyer

    Excellent service from start to finish. Our driveway needed a complete repair - it's been in pretty bad condition since before we moved into our house 7 years ago, and these guys got it done. They demoed the old asphalt, brought in new stone base, and paved with new asphalt the following morning. The workers were super respectful of our and our neighbors' property and worked very quickly. We would definitely hire Guardian again.

    While not the very cheapest quote we got, Guardian was still competitive in pricing. We worked with Rafael, who pursued getting the bond and permit necessary to get the job started. So nice not to have to do that stuff ourselves! Rafael was friendly, professional, and cared about the job. The Guardian team showed up on time, finished quickly, were respectful of our property, and did a great job.

    They did a fantastic job on a very neglected driveway! Looks like new again. They where accommodating with my request to get it done right away & times that worked for us with juggling other home improvements going on. Will be using them on other properties as well.

My previous lawn care company relocated and we were two weeks without mowing services and grass was LONG. Julio's brother Modesto was out within 45 mins and we spoke about other landscaping projects I was considering. He said they'd take care of the lawn that afternoon and provide a quote on weeding/trimming. I received the quote for additional projects same day as well. Julio's not only came out for quote within 45 mins but also completed the mowing and entire weeding/trimming (very large lawn with lots of areas requiring attention) that afternoon. The quality of work is outstanding. The pricing is reasonable for the scope of work completed. I can't recommend this company highly enough. Extremely fast communication and in our case rapid same day completion of a nearly 4 hour project with multiple people working. Julio's is an outstanding small business and so happy to have found them. Have Julio's coming back today to apply pre-emergent and mulch project. Great people, great work and excellent communication, the yard has never looked better! Thanks Julio & team!

    We contacted Hope's Landscaping in July 2018 for an on-site consultation. We had an aging deck…read morethat was getting little use and wanted to know what was possible if we were to replace it with a brick paver patio. They promptly set up a visit and Ernie came out and checked out the area. A day later, he came back with a vision for what was possible (we literally had no idea what to do and were relying on the opinions of contractors). He explained what would fit the space best, what sorts of things would detract from the space, and the best "bang for our buck." He was open with his pricing, laying out all the details of what was included, discounts, etc. We decided to go with them to: 1) Remove the deck 2) Remove two older raised garden beds 3) Remove an area of pea gravel separating the raised garden beds and deck. 4) Create a two-tiered patio, with curving edges, that steps down to a built-in fire pit and a half-moon style stairs leading up to the adjacent sun room. 5) Put in garden beds edging the patio with custom plants. 6) Finish the area with sod. What followed is the only "less than 5 star" part of my review. We were told a start date of August 25, contingent upon rain and other projects; we completely understood. Late August came and for a couple weeks the communication about the project progress came to a standstill. It took about 3 weeks of voicemails and emails to finally get a response and explanation about the delay (health issues with crew members and some weather delays). I expressed my concern about simply improving communication and from that point forward, we had no issues with the office folk, Ernie, or anyone at Hope's. I think it was simply that they were overwhelmed at the time. Because of the delays, our project ran into a winter "pause." The deck was torn out late fall in 2018, and then in April, the work on the space truly began. One thing that we were VERY impressed with was the thoughtfulness each and every day by the work crew as they packed up to leave. They would pick up the area, organize any tools or bricks, blow off the patio, etc., just to make it "look nice" until the next day, even if the area wasn't even close to being ready for use. When the project got close to being done, Ernie met with us regularly again to discuss the garden beds, finishing the project, and other details. We were given a list of plants to choose for the garden beds (custom listed and appropriate for the shadiness of the areas), and Ernie was receptive to my wanting to create (on my own) a small in-ground strawberry garden (in the pictures, this is the rectangle of bare dirt not covered by the new sod--Ernie gave his opinion on the size and placement of that bed so as to not detract from the appeal of the patio and other beds). All-in-all, we would hands-down recommend Hope's Landscaping, especially if you "lack creative vision" like we did. Ernie has a talent for creating a project FOR YOU and FOR YOUR SPACE.

He made recommendations about plants, etc....and all this without officially having secured my business. Towards the end of July, I reached back out to see what his timeline looked like. Again, he responded almost immediately. He apologized for not getting back to me sooner, and said he would come out to measure the area, and discuss the job in more detail. In my mind, he had absolutely nothing to apologizing for. He set a date to come out, came out exactly at the time he promised, and helped us figure out what would look good. He provided a written, detailed estimate, which he adhered to...we paid exactly what he quoted. On the day of the job, he showed up as promised and on time. He laid out all of the plants, and allowed us to move them around several times until we got everything exactly the way we wanted it. His team worked quickly and neatly. The end results are amazing!

All we saw was a bare backyard with a lot of green grass with some weeds. We did have some "wants" on our list which included a natural gas firepit, natural gas line for grill, seating for ~6-8 people, and enough room for entertain with some food, drinks, and a nice place to relax. From the start to the finish, Grant and Power was completely different than the other companies. Other locations just met you outside, what you wanted, and how big. Then we got a quote. However, when I contacted Grant and Powers, they started out with an email with some essential information like their insurance, a pamphlet and other information to get us started. We talked about what we were looking and then waited for our appointment Our appointment was different. Instead of going outside and talking about size... Gene sat us down to talk to us. He wanted to know what we wanted, what we were looking for and what we wanted to spend. We told him about how we were going to use the space and what we wanted and gave him our budget. Afterwards we talked about modern trends and what designs are in/out, how we wanted to place everything. Then off he went with the rest of the team to start designing it after a small down payment. He asked about budget and we talked about how much it might cost, but of course, the final bill could vary depending on the design. A few weeks later, we had another appointment where he showed us the design and it was amazing. They really sat down and listened to what we wanted because it looked amazing. The budget was completely out of our range.. granted, we knew our budget was on the low side of things, but they were willing to work with us to make this affordable. Finally, our day arrived. We got a call the night before that they were arriving in the morning to get started. During the process, the team were good...i would give them a 4.5/5 for a few minor things.They did talk to us a few times but I wish we were updated better. They were good about protecting our lawn even though some areas did suffer. Luckily (For us and them), our backyard had nothing out there. It was just bare land with green-ish grass. From start to finish, they were done in a week. We waited an extra day for another group of guys to show up to set up the firepit and show us how to use it. They were in and out fairly quickly. In the end, we got a beautiful patio. One section to entertain/eat. The other area is for the firepit and grill. Due to the design, they both feel separate from each other. We did find some minor damages that the team did not let me know or Gene. But he is going out of his way to making it right and I appreciate it. Ive had some neighbors stop by to marvel at the patio. Overall, if I were to ever move away, I would go back to this company to design a beautiful space again. I would completely recommend this company if you are looking for the same.
