"They came on time. Completed a professional install. Harvey followed up with watering tips. Said to call if needed."

"Mike, Eddie, and their team were great. From the beginning communication was easy and Mike was easy to get ahold of when we had questions regarding materials and details in the estimate he sent us. We actually had them quote us a few years back, but had to hold off on the work due to multiple home repairs. They gave us a new estimate, for a small increase, which I really respected given the 4 years that had passed and the amount of work they had on their schedule. We had a couple of other companies come out and quote us and E & B gave us a middle ground price, but with plenty of detail to back it up. We ended up deciding to do composite deck floorboards with a wood railing. After they began demo my husband realized that even though we had planned to hold off on having our back sidewalk re-poured to slope away from the house it wouldn't be possible since two of the staircase footers would have to sit on top of it. We asked if they could add give us an estimate on one sidewalk from the back of the house to the alley. After some back and forth on the height and slope of the sidewalk, they got started on that the next day. We also decided that we might as well replace our sliding door that has been giving us issues and Eddie ordered that immediately for us. Everyone was respectful about our space, worked hard, and whenever we had questions they stopped work until we had it resolved. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure to come back to finish up a few minor details. They also came back two weeks later when the sliding door wouldn't lock. They didn't leave us hanging after the majority/all of the job was done, which had happened to us once before. I trust them enough to work with them again when we're ready to tackle the next thing on our bungalow fix-it list."

"Very well. They cleared a fence lin 75 ft. lon and up to 15 ft. wide down to bare ground, no stumps left. Then thhey contoured and seeded the whole area. All in one day."

"We recently hired Green City Gardens for a landscaping project and we couldn't be happier with the results! JD's knowledge about plants and design is so impressive. He took the time to listen to our vision and made excellent recommendations based on our layout, local climate, and soil conditions. JD and his team's attention to detail was also impeccable. They were incredibly thorough in every aspect of the project, from preparing the soil to ensuring proper drainage. They worked efficiently but took the time needed to get everything just right. I especially appreciated how they kept the workspace clean and organized throughout. In addition to their technical skills, their customer service was outstanding. They communicated clearly, kept us informed about progress, and were always open to our input. I felt like they truly cared about making sure we were happy with the final product—and we absolutely are! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and skilled landscaper that is in a class of their own, I highly recommend JD at Green City Gardens. He transformed our outdoor space into something beautiful, and we couldn't be happier!"

"We are extremely happy with the quality and artistry of the landscaping! Unlike a previous company we hired for landscaping, Midwest put in larger bushes and denser landscaping right off the bat, so it looked great right away! They made wonderful choices of flowers and plants. They exceeded our expectations with the quantity and quality of their landscaping. When they came back to prune and do maintenance and mulching, they did a wonderful job again. We highly recommend them!"

"Everyone was very professional, respectful and friendly. The work was done in a timely manner and to our satisfaction. The team was eager to help with any questions we had. The driveway looks awesome we would definitely use them again."

"Tom was an incredible resource and project manager for our home backyard project. He worked with us to get the brick materials we wanted for our patio. He helped us install an area of artificial turf as well. His team worked hard and were working every day during the work week until project completed. Highly recommend Tom!"

"We have been using Ramon and Ramon for our lawn care service for many years. They do an exceptional job. They come weekly and keep my lawn perfectly trimmed. Spring cleanup and fall cleanups are also provided and are terrific. Their pricing is fair. We plan to continue using them. Exceptional service. Highly recommended. We also use them for paver repair and they also do a great job with that. AS"

"November 13 2025 I hired Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation to complete excavation, footings, and foundation work for a large project I was working on. I invested about $55,000 in the project, and I couldn?t be happier with the results. The job was completed perfectly and on time, even though the weather conditions were terrible. We had snow, rain, and freezing temperatures, but nothing stopped Mario and his crew. They showed up every day, worked efficiently, and stayed committed to getting the job done right and fast. I truly appreciate their dedication because I needed the work completed quickly, and despite the weather challenges, they delivered exactly what they promised. Professional, reliable, and hardworking team. I would definitely recommend Elite & Elevated Construction & Excavation, and I will absolutely hire them again to install my concrete driveway in the future"
