Renovation and finished basement, kitchen and baths. Residential and commercial construction and repairs

"Terrible experience. Dakota was awful at responding to any emails, calls, or texts. We essentially contracted with him and the morning he was supposed to start work, he said he was COVID-positive and would get back to us about rescheduling. We never heard from him or anyone at L&D Construction again. Completely unreliable and unprofessional."

We serve the greater Chicagoland area and specialize in custom kitchens, bathrooms, basements and general remodeling projects. We provide full interior paint and refinishing services. Melodic LLC also creates and installs custom built in furniture and fine carpentry pieces. We look forward to speaking with you about your next project!

"The worst experience we have ever had. BE AWARE - they are in no way a professional contracting service. We have had so many issues after their work was performed from plumbing leaks to electrical shorts, misaligned cabinetry and a voided floor warranty because they INCORRECTLY installed cabinetry on top of the new floor. Not to mention they did not first spread sufficient leveler to the floor leaving us with "pits" and squeaky flooring now. Whole project was a **** show. Obvious they pray on senior citizens and DO NOT stand behind their word or work. Finally proceeding with a lawsuit to recoup flooring costs and additional issues as they have ignored all requests to finish their work and correct issues. Once again THESE ARE NOT PROFESIONAL CONTRACTORS. If I could give negative stars I would. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED."

Illinois Irrigation Contractor - Fully Bonded and Insured Over 20 years of experience

"Baltazar spent almost 3 hours working on our sprinkler system. He moved 5 rotating nozzles that were located too close to the sidewalk/driveway. He replaced a valve for one watering zone and upgraded two nozzles to improve watering coverage. He located our ‘missing’ control box which we knew existed but could never find because it was buried under 2 inches of dirt in the front landscaping! We also had the backflow preventer certification scheduled by him with a plumber he works with. . . and the guy came the following day! Baltazar even provided us with hints and tips on maintaining our system. We also hired him last year to repair a leak. Highly recommend him!"

Landscapers typically charge $25 to $50 per person per hour, which equals around $50 to $100 per hour for a two-person crew. These rates can vary depending on your location, the size of staff needed for the job, and overall job type. For example, a larger crew will be needed for structural additions and hardscaping versus planting flowers.

When it comes to landscapers, licensing laws vary. Landscaping architects are required to be licensed in all 50 states, whereas traditional landscaping contractors are not typically required to hold a certification. You’ll likely be working with a landscaping contractor for most residential projects. If you are redesigning your whole yard or adding in hardscape features, you will work with a landscaping architect at some point during the project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local landscaper guidelines.

Licensing requirements vary from state to state and by locality. It's always best to check with your local University Extension Service to find out which services require licensing.

If you want landscaping done but want to save some money on the overall fees, you can do a few things at every stage. Some ways to save money on your landscaping include:

  • Repurpose existing features and materials

  • Softscape instead of hardscape

  • Choose the more inexpensive materials

  • DIY when you can

  • Buy young plants instead of mature ones

Saving money on a landscape project starts by breaking the project up in segments or phases. Start with the site work, digging or adding soils. Then plant the larger "anchor" plantings. Then follow up with the smaller fill in shrubs or flowers. Lastly, add decorative items like boulders, rock mulch and low voltage landscape lighting. This way you can budget the project based on your time and money.

If you are an avid DIYer and have plenty of time to dedicate to your yard, doing your own landscaping (or at least some of it) can be an affordable option. Projects like planting a tree, planting grass, laying sod, or building a firepit can realistically be done without the need for a landscaping professional. However, these projects can take considerable time and some landscaping knowledge, so having a pro might save you in the long run.

Projects that are dangerous, like digging with heavy machinery or removing a tree, should always be done by a professional.

Yes, landscaping and lawn care can be done by anyone. Just like baking, anyone can do it, but are the results good and worth the effort? Hiring a professional makes sense when doing complex work such as drainage, treating insects and disease, and pruning trees over 20 feet tall, etc. Some of these things require special licensing, such as pruning large trees. Getting multiple estimates from well-regarded professionals can help you decide the best choices for a DIY project or hiring a professional.

Landscaping costs around $3,500 but varies widely from $200 to $14,000. Factors that play a part in your final landscaping price tag include:

  • Location

  • Yard size

  • Project size

  • Materials

  • Land preparation

  • Type of landscaping

Considering so many factors, it’s not surprising that the overall costs can differ. A typical landscaping project is flower bed installation, which averages between $800 and $3,000. However, landscape lighting installation is a higher-end project, with a price tag of $2,000 to $6,000.
