We had our backyard patio redone by G & P. After meeting with Shawn to discuss the design, he had…read morea beautiful mockup made up for us before the work began. Scheduling was easy, they got right to work. When there were issues, Shawn was in touch immediately and the issues were resolved often before we even realized they existed. The patio and retaining wall are gorgeous! The steps out to the yard, and the stoop from the house are a HUGE improvement over what we had before, and all done for a very reasonable price, especially since we did shop around. Needless to say, we love our new backyard and hubby even says he now has room for more grills! We have no complaints; the workmanship, value, and communication were all outstanding.

After living in my new construction house, my wife and I decided that it was finally time to get a…read morebackyard patio. 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.

We worked with Joel Torres of Bolder Lawns. He and his company were great in terms of customer…read moreservice and execution. We love the final product, and Joel was attentive to revisions to make the end product even better. He has a good eye for landscape design and he scheduled the work to meet an installation deadline Involving another contractor. It's a family business, father and son and uncle as I recall. I appreciated Joel's commitment to us as clients.

We recently completed a full landscape and hardscape project, including a permeable paver walkway…read moreand the results exceeded every expectation. From start to finish, the craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding. The paver installation is precise and beautifully aligned, thoughtfully executed, and the lighting design we installed completely transformed our home at night. The warm uplighting and pathway lights create both elegance and safety, highlighting architectural details and landscaping in a way that feels high-end and intentional. What impressed me most was the professionalism, communication, and pride in workmanship. Every detail mattered -- and it shows. Our home now looks polished, cohesive, and elevated. If you are looking for a contractor who delivers quality, precision, and true curb appeal transformation, I highly recommend them.

Last year we decided it was time to upgrade and found Daniel based on other reviews. He and his team installed french drains and a new patio with seat walls, lighting, and an amazing gas fire pit. Daniel and his team were right on time every day, ready to go. They worked through one of the rainiest springs we've had in a while... but they still showed up and did a great job. We went from completely wasted backyard space to having an amazing place to hang out and have friends and family over.

Their crew is meticulous, thorough and reliable and our property looks great. Over the years we have also used them for other things. They do all our landscape design, plant selection and installation. We also used them for a large hardscape project. The biggest project they tackled for us involved working with our plumber and the city of Elmhurst. They handled all permitting, dug and built a drywell in our front lawn and routed the overflow from it underground into the storm sewer in the middle of the street. This company is extremely professional, experts in what they do and above all, we trust them. They are also a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top quality, full-service landscape provider.

The top portion of an exterior trim window on my second floor was starting to rot and peel away, so…read moreI was looking to have someone to be able to remove and replace it. It was a bit of a tricky job due to the trim being arched, which meant it had to be traced and cut appropriately. I had the pleasure of contacting David, whom I asked several questions of how he would go about the process and I felt very comfortable with everything he walked through. He scheduled the work for a couple weeks out, text notifications let me know when he would be arriving and he was able to complete everything within a few hours. David cut the replacement beautifully using PVC so there is no maintenance on it in the future and caulked / sealed up all points of exposure to rain. He was very efficient, kind, and answered all the questions I had since I'm learning to do these kinds of tasks on my own. The pricing was extremely competitive and there's no question that I'll have David back pretty soon for other jobs around my home that I'm not comfortable handling. Highly recommended, thanks again David! Best, Charlie
