Additional Services

Turf Rehabs and Sod

We create lush, healthy lawns—whether by installing fresh sod or restoring existing turf through targeted aeration, overseeding, and soil amendments. We also provide grading, soil reclamation, and drainage correction, using these measures together to promote strong, long-term lawn health and resilience.
Paver, Patio & Stone

We install patios, natural stone, and hardscapes with durable materials—bluestone, flagstone, travertine, pavers, and boulders—built to withstand Chicago seasons. From low‑maintenance patios and layered terraces to seat walls, steps, and custom fire features, layouts are tailored to how you live outdoors. The result: durable, attractive hardscapes that boost value and invite use, with clear estimates, realistic timelines, and finishes that age gracefully.
Organic Lawn Care

Tailored organic lawn care programs designed for your property’s needs. Using certified organic fertilizers, slow-release nutrients, beneficial microbes, and targeted cultural practices (core aeration, overseeding, proper mowing and watering guidance), we create a greener, more resilient lawn without synthetic chemicals.
Drainage and Stormwater Management

Reclaim soggy spots on your property with tailored drainage solutions that address your yard’s specific needs. Stop surface pooling and reduce the risk of flooding by redirecting runoff, installing proper grading, and creating rain gardens planted to absorb stormwater. Let our team design and implement the right, long-lasting fix for your drainage problems.

We provide specialty maintenance programs for intensive and extensive green roof systems to maintain the viability of the design, prevent weed pressure from degrading the system, provide nutrient inputs, and inspect roof and drain functionality.
