Customers say: Super punctual

"JD and his team just did the second job for us - new front yard sod & some new backyard plantings. The work is beautiful, just what we wanted, and was done efficiently and with such a great, positive crew. JD is meticulous - you get a beautiful yard and simple instructions to keep it that way! He has a great feel for what the customer wants and understands what it's going to look like all year round and over the long term. His original design is still beautiful almost 10 years later. Highly recommend, thanks JD!"

"Del Rio's Landscaping did a WONDERFUL job on our garden pathways. They were prompt, professional and did an excellent job. In fact I am hiring them to put in a garden walk way on the other side of my house. Highly recommend them! Brian and Jennifer Gosizk Barrington, Illinois"

"Almanza is the best in the area, I've learned the hard way. Had them as regulars for landscaping a few years back. They were great for the most part - Raul was excellent at doing extra jobs (paving, tree-cutting) fast and prompt at very reasonable prices. The yard looked great. However, when fall cleanup came, the crew left a lot of debris behind. During the summer, they also trimmed stuff I asked them not to trim and didn't trim what I wanted them to. I chalked it up to the crew though. Raul has always been great and I complained to him about it, noting I couldn't renew the contract with the same weekly crew. Not hearing from him about a different crew, I too hastily terminated the contract. BIG mistake. Subsequent lawn care and landscape specialists have been totally abysmal compared. I've learned that the weekly crews of any company are not as honest, hardworking, scrupulous, etc. as the owners but you have to put up with that stuff. It's just part of the game apparently. Looking back, aul's crew wasn't perfect, but they were a lot better than any others I've had. If you have him as a landscaper, keep him. A good dude. I've regretted my action more every year."

"Juan and Jose worked with us a few years ago. Once we bought our new home they were the first on our list to call for landscaping needs. They installed new entryway, spring clean up etc. As always, they were professional, good communication, flexible and punctual. The finished product was the envy of my neighborhood. If you are looking for reliable, hard working, professional and flexible landscapers Juan and Jose are the ones to call. At this point they are like family. They are currently providing landscaping services for me biweekly. My lawn is looking great! Thank you and the crew for an amazing walkway and entry way."

"Mike and his crew did exactly what was agreed upon and did it within the timeframe discussed. Both he and his crew were professional and a pleasure to deal with. His pricing was great for the amount of work that needed to be done. I'll be hiring them again for further landscaping needs."

"Very helpful and professional company. I couldn't be happier with my new sod. I appreciate unique's patience while I took my time making a decision, and when I did decide to move forward with them, they were quick to come out and get the job done. They're also very helpful and are willing to answer any questions regarding your new sod and any other landscaping questions. Highly recommended!"

Landscaping questions, answered by experts

Pavers are one of the most affordable methods of creating an elevated outdoor space. Gravel is an equally affordable alternative. If your budget permits, you can look into building a permeable driveway to ensure proper drainage. Grid pavers, pervious concrete, brick, and brick pavement are all effective materials. Permeable driveways are great options, especially if you live in an area with heavy rainstorms.

The most important thing to put under a rock garden is the appropriate soil. The specific soil needed will depend on the type of plants you’re growing as well as the environment you live in. You can also put non-woven or woven fabric under the rocks to add to the garden's structural stability.

In most cases, wait three to five days to repot or relocate a plant from a greenhouse or nursery. That way, your plant has time to recover from any shock during the move and adapt to the conditions in and around your home. Some hearty plants may not need as long, and delicate plants might need several weeks. You should ask the professional at your nursery for a recommended timeline. Consider asking about an initial watering schedule to help stimulate root growth and promote a healthy plant.

Yes, backyard landscaping and total-home landscaping add value to your home. According to the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA), high-quality landscape design has a 20 to 30 percent return on investment. So, when it comes time to sell your home, having a beautiful backyard landscaping oasis will increase your home’s value. 

If shade is a priority for you, then panting elm trees is a fine choice. A full mature elm tree has enough aesthetic appeal for some folks that it could add value to your home. 

That said, never plant elm trees too close to your home, sewer line, or sidewalks, as their roots can damage these, which can lead to costly repairs.
