Amongst the litany of issues (forgetting our property during last year's cleanup resulting in a poor job done, cutting down ALL my perennials when we were out of town and admitting they knew they shouldn't have done it and refusing to replace them) the worst was their fall cleanup this year. Instead of removing the debris, grass clippings, and leaves, Michael and team piled EVERYTHING on my street. When confronted on the phone, he said he "called it in" and that the city would come to pick it up. This is illegal as the Village of Glenview clearly doesn't clean up after landscapers (it's on the city's website, even). After weeks and the huge snowstorm, the giant pile was still there, spread down the block by the plow, and also across the street at my elderly neighbor's (she is unfortunately a client as well). I called the city to ask for a record of him "calling it in" and they said that's not possible, they wouldn't clean it up, and there was no record. I called Michael back and he said, "well, I didn't REALLY call it in, but told some random guy in a street sweeper in another neighborhood to come clean it up. So, it's on the Village." He tried to double down saying there was already a small pile there, and he just added to it. Even if that were the case (ring camera footage shows it's not), a landscaper is never meant to just leave a full fall cleanup on the street. At the same time, he forgot my other neighbor's property on the opposite corner, came back to do her lawn, TOOK HER LEAVES AWAY, and left ours on the road. She was home that day, saw everything, and said would corroborate what I'm stating here if ever necessary. Michael refused to give me a refund, and left me holding the bag - I had to manage getting the huge pile of leaves cleaned up on my own. Moreover, I'll have to replace all the perennials this spring that were not meant to be cut down. If you want the worst possible lawn care service, go for Perfect Lawn and Snow.

They were one of three companies recommended by Lurvey. One was out of business and the other was about 50% higher. The project took 4 days and went fairly smoothly. My only concerns were that the transplants didn't get replanted as quickly as I would have liked and there wasn't as much attention to watering each of the newly planted shrubs except for a few minutes of surface watering at day's end. As it's nearing the end of the growing season when plants normally begin to fade, I won't know for sure how successful the project is until next year but if everything survives the winter I'll be very pleased. I'll try to add an update at that time. I hope to be in contact with A Garden Guy next season for updates to my front yard but will have to get an earlier start as they book up fast.

We undertook this project with a great deal of trepidation. Our 60-year old concrete driveway was…read morein sore need of replacement. We obtained several estimates and decided to go with a well-established contractor, Pavestone Brick Paving, based on their reputation and experience. (We decided against hiring landscapers who also installed pavers even though their quotes were somewhat lower.) We visited some paver driveways that Pavestone constructed in our village and were impressed with the quality of their work. We also were bolstered by a visit to their facility in Des Plaines where we met the office staff and viewed the construction equipment. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and pleasant. We worked with Sergio, and I was completely satisfied with the service that he provided. From his initial visit to our house, through the discussions of the quotation, and conversations during the ongoing work, he displayed a pleasant demeanor and maintained contact with us, by phone and email. I felt quite comfortable working with him. He made useful suggestions during the planning process, such as rerouting the lower section of our downspouts below ground to discharge into our yard. I was also pleased that he was able to replace an unneeded section of our old driveway with sod. He provided samples of paver stones to assist us in choosing the best fit for our house and even created computer-generated renderings, depicting our house and driveway with the selected pavers installed (see photo). The job began about a month after we signed the contract. The crew of 5 men, led by Hector, worked tirelessly over a period of 6.5 days, in heat and occasional (light) rain, leading to a very attractive outcome. Each worker knew exactly what to do, and the team did their job in concert like a well-oiled machine. (See the photos which depict the progress of the project, from start to finish.) We are quite pleased with the outcome; the result is an attractive driveway that has become the envy of my neighbors. I have received many compliments from them in the days following completion. In summary, Pavestone Brick Paving transformed the worn and aged look of our driveway and walkways into an aesthetically appealing complement to our house's facade. I give them my highest recommendation.

My 92 year old grandmother, a client of Justin's for OVER a decade, has a beautiful garden bed full of massive amounts of BIENNIAL SELF-SEEDING Black Eye Susans, rudbeckia, and coneflowers. First, in 2022, despite telling them NOT to cut down the flowers (so they can RESEED themselves in order to remain in the garden) they CUT down EVERY SINGLE FLOWER HEAD. THOUSANDS of seeds - gone! As a result, Justin offered my grandmother only a small discount on spring service. Despite him promising my grandmother that Belter Landscaping would not touch the flowers and not cut them down ( again since they are biennial self-seeders that rely on reseeding in order to remain each year...) he BROKE that promise and allowed them to once again, cut EVERY SINGLE FLOWER DOWN! So many years were shed. My grandmother is in her 90d and now won't know if these flowers will ever return. Thousands of seeds tossed away after she told them not to cut them and even worse? He promised her he would not do it and allowed this to happen again - to my 92 yr old grandmother who has been a dedicated client. The broken trust is unbelievable. This has completely devastated not only her, but the entire family.

Landscaping and emergency are rarely used in the same sentence however as sudden, extreme, and sustained rainfalls made an Ark seem to be a better option than a wedding tent we found ourselves between a rock and the wet place. Lucky for us George Cardenas Landscape Design was able to accommodate our need and quickly developed a solution that offered near and long-term solutions to our problem. These days it is rare to find a business that still places an emphasis on service, quality, and working together to make your ideas come to fruition. We are fortunate enough to have discovered Cardenas Landscape Design many years ago. Through several homes, more Spring & Summer cleanups than we care to remember, and assorted yard hardscape and planting projects that always garner Botanic Garden comparisons - George, Alex, and the entire team at Cardenas always exceed our expectations! Several years ago my daughter's final wish was to live on as a white oak, we only trusted one team to find the perfect tree and plant it for Molly to be ever present with us. They also made a small paver patio for our teak bench that offers hours of time to reflect with Molly and watch as grandkids and dogs play in her shade. Molly's dream plus the Cardenas Team's efforts have kept Molly with us in all the best ways! Our current yard has challenges on good days. George and his team have cleverly designed and installed several very naturally flowing paths that not only give us access to our yard regardless of weather but enhance the beauty of the yard as well. Dirt, rock, plants can be bought, installed, and cared for by nearly anyone and in an endless variety of ways. However, finding a company that can add the intangibles of design sense, materials expertise, trust, reliability, and friendly customer focused service is something worthy of note. George Cardenas Landscape Design is the proven right choice and best value for us time and time again. Dave & Jan
