A family owned & operated landscape design, build and maintenance business serving Western Suburbs of the Chicago Metro area. Our office and yard are located in Aurora, just off Route-59 near Fox Valley shopping mall. Award winning.
They had to dig up grass and relocate/add dirt on three sides of our home. They were absolutely meticulous! Not to mention that they saved the lilies on one side of our home. They divided them, spaced them out and used them to landscape new flower beds added to 2 sides of our home. I never asked them to do this - it was above and beyond, but saved me the time, effort and money of figuring out what to do with these new flower beds. It looks great! Also, Arun was able to cut costs on dirt by relocating soil already present on the property so edged and mulched the beds within the original estimate cost. They also did pop-up drains for 6 gutter down spouts as well as our sump pump. These look fabulous and much, much nicer than the yards of gutter extending into the lawn. After the work is done, most importantly NO MORE WATER IN MY BASEMENT - YAY!! And better yet, my property looks significantly improved also. Arun has come to check the property since the work and has contacted me to make sure there are no more water problems. They went above and beyond in all aspects of the work, treated my home like their own and were wonderfully professional and responsive to me. I am actually planning a second project with them as we speak:) They do a quality job and I cannot recommend them any more highly- you will be pleased!
Description of Work: Our home had SERIOUS grading issues. The lawn literally sloped towards the house on three sides and the ground level was not built up to an appropriate level along the foundation in many areas. We were getting water in the house during heavy rains and our sump was going non-stop. Arun came out and made thorough recommendations, as well as offering creative options to accomplish goals in the most economical ways. They were able to complete the work a few weeks later, even though it is their busy season.

Couldn't have been better from beginning to end. Arun was very responsive. He came out promptly to go over the needed work and give us a quote. On the agreed-upon date he showed up with his crew and went over the wok with them. The crew worked very hard ll day. We are very pleased with the result and will recommend them to all our friends.

I could not be happier with Rent A Gardner and Arun the owner. They are fantastic. Arun is responsive which is so hard to come by today it seems with contractors. He is prompt and keeps his word as to all of the details of the job. We will be using the crew again this fall for the fall clean up as they do fantastic work.

Arun was very honest and helpful in providing the advice we needed to get what we wanted( a great landscape that provided privacy and noise control). He was very easy to work with, prompt and responsive. Arun even stopped by on multiple occassions after the trees were planted to make sure they were blossoming. The harsh dry summer actually didnt fair too well for some of the trees and he had the crew back out to replace the trees under the warranty we had. Really appreciate the work the crew did and will definitnely use Rent a Gardener in the future.
Description of Work: Arun and his crew cut back some existing flower beds and reshaped them with our stone wall. They cut a new section that runs the length of our yard against our fence line and planted 6 arborvitaes, and two decorative trees.

I used Rent A Gardener a couple of years ago, and was well pleased with them then. I had a larger job to be done this year and they were the first landscapers I called. Good decision on my part. Not the cheapest, but their prices are entirely fair and worth it for the quality, detail and professional service they provide. - The cleanup work was complete and they handled everything I expected them to - I didn't really have an idea of what I wanted in front bed of my yard--but I wanted something that would look nice and provide curb appeal. Arun provided several suggestions, complete with pictures of the species he proposed. When I rejected one tree due to size, he didn't try to sell me on it but asked for more detail on what I wanted and then went back to the drawing board to provide some options that met my needs. When the work was done, it was even prettier than I expected. - Rather than trying to re-seed a shady area in my back yard, Arun suggested laying mulch and flagstone. Sounds simple but it's not something I would have thought of on my own. They added shape to the design so that it's attractive and interesting. - Bonus points for being on time for our meeting to discuss what I wanted, and for getting the job done even before the date that was committed.
Description of Work: - General spring clean up, plant removal and trimming - Replacing dead grass with sod along the driveway and laying mulch in all the beds - A landscape plan for an area that I had hardscaped (unilock pavers) last year - Arun also suggested a great alternative to trying to grow grass in a problematic area in my back yard which is shaded by two mature trees.

Two men arrived on time with the owner. They reviewed what had to be done. The men were very hard workers and did a professional caring job in our garden. They took extra care in applying stone around our new generator. There was no down time the men worked well together. All the trimming turned out beautiful. We are very happy with the results.

I decided to give them a call based on all the great reviews they got on Angie's List. I'm glad I did. Besides needing new mulch, I wanted to change the landscaping a bit and make it a little more low maintenance. We have a lot of shrubs. Arun came out to give me an estimate and gave some ideas on what to do. I liked all of his suggestions. I also was thinking of taking down a very nice maple tree that seems to be going bad, but Arun talked me out of it and gave some suggestions on what to do to save it. We scheduled a date for them to come out and do the work. They arrived on time. They removed some shrubs, trimmed and pruned the other shrubs that were getting too tall. They extended the tree ring around our trees in the front. The mulch was delivered around noon and they laid it out nicely. They finished in one day. For the amount of work I needed done, I thought it would take them two days. All in all, I was very impressed with them from start to finish. You can tell Arun has a passion for landscaping and it shows. My yard looks beautiful now. It's not so cluttered with shrubs anymore. I would definitely recommend them.
Description of Work: We had some shrubs removed, and the remaining shrubs were trimmed and pruned. We also had new mulch put down.

Arun came out on a Saturday morning and spent about 40 minutes with us reviewing our vision for our landscape. He suggested we break out our plans into projects which could be done at any time. Arun was very friendly and easy to talk to. He had several good recommendations to get the yard we wanted. He provided a detailed estimate within 5 days of our meeting. Unfortunately, the availability of his crew was about a month out and we really wanted to get the work done sooner. I recommend Arun and his company but depending on the job you may need to be patient for a time slot to ge the work done.

We looked at several landscaping companies on Angie's List in the Aurora area. All of the reviews for Rent-A-Gardener came back great. The few exceptions were people who balked at the price. You get what you pay for and Arun's company was A+. He came out exactly when he said he would and went around the yard with me as we discussed what needed to be done and what the options were. Arun made several suggestions of things we could do to improve the landscaping. The day Arun's team came out they worked all day long in the rain. They had to come back once more to finish up the job. Over the years we have had a variety of landscaping companies do spring clean up for us and this was the first time we were truly impressed with the work. Trees and bushes were pruned. Dead brush and weed were completely removed. They even sodded one corner of our backyard and installed a new sump pump drain pipe at no additional labor cost. Arun kept in touch with us every step of the way and came out to inspect the job and make sure the job was done to our satisfaction. They may charge a little more than other companies but their attention to detail and customer satisfaction shows they are worth it. Over the years our lawn has suffered from lack of attention. We will be using Rent-A-Gardener to rehab our entire lawn beginning in May and I am certain I will be posting an equally positive review.

On Tuesday my wife called the company to get an estimate for an edging job in her garden. The man said he would be in our area on Saturday and he would call back on Friday to set up a time to stop by for the Saturday estimate. On Friday he called back and asked her if the edging was all she wanted done. She told him yes, at this time. He then told her that they had an $825. minimum to come out. Based on a previous estimate of $400. the $825. was not practical. I have no problem with a company having minimums for service. I do have a problem with not being told initially that they have a minimum service charge We wasted 3 days expecting someone to come out and give us an estimate. It is a fairly big yard and the cost would have been about $400. With a name like Rent A Gardener you would think that they would accept jobs for les than $825. Business must be good.

We had a great experience with Rent A Gardener. Arun came and and surveyed our property and talked with me about three different possible projects. He sent me detailed estimates for each with price breakdown. We chose to do one project at this time, and the work was scheduled promptly. Everything looks great, and I especially appreciate being able to receive all information over email and pay online via credit card. What I am most impressed with is how the company still gave attention to my project even during the heavy rains we experienced in the area. The crew even came back the next day to check on the sump pump ejection pipe length, even though there was flooding in the area and the company headquarters had had their own flooding concerns. It was a pleasure to work with this company and we will definitely call them in the future when we need additional work on our yard.
Description of Work: Sump pump pipe repair and burial, downspout consolidation and burial, closed off an odd spot under concrete stairs, planting of bush and ground cover, sod placement.

They graded, reaved and sawed an area where there were plantings, shrubs and things. They graded the ground and rolled in some sods. They did a nice job. They came out and estimated the job. We discussed all the issues and some other things that we did not do that day, and it was not outside the estimate they gave. They did all the work that they said they would do. These guys were real good. They cleaned up afterwards. They did even a little more kinds of things than I expected them to do. I kind of just expected them to do their job to the letter and no more. They pulled out some heavy old pipes from there and that is the kind of thing that I thought was nice. They were very customer oriented.

Arun came out on a Saturday monring and met with my husband. He right away had visions of what to do and how to go about it, it all sounded very expensive. He was realistic in what he was doing and was not expecting us to go overboard at the time, he understood that first of all we wanted to get the yard cleaned up. He got back to us very quickly with a quote, which was very reasonable for the amount of work and labor that was involved. When his crew was out, they were very professional and courteious. The work looks great and we plan to use ARun and his team again in the future.
Description of Work: We recently bought our home and our yard was in much need of a makeover. We needed to have several bunches of juniper bushes removed. There were a couple areas that had some odd fixtures that were there, we needed to kind guard off by the sewer. Also, the backyard had never had anything but weeds. So we needed seed put down also.

First of all, let me say that this is the best Landscape Contractor that we have ever worked with. Landscaping is a pretty straight forward business, so what makes Rent-A-Gardener so special? Simple. It's the little things. They are on time, professional, knowledgeable, careful of existing plantings, and do a FANTASTIC job! When the day arrived for Rent-A-Gardener to perform the work, George and Noel arrived at our house early, walked with us to get the job scope (impressed me with their knowledge of plant species), were very attentive and of respectful our needs, and made suggestions that were very helpful. Then they went right to work - and I mean right to work. Except for a short lunch break - they did not stop until the work was done. Did I mention it was 95 DEGREES that day?! We had let our garden go for the least three years so there was plenty of weeds and overgrowth to be removed. So much so that we were worried that some of our prized plantings might suffer and/or be destroyed during the clearing out process. NO Need TO Worry. Noel and George were extremely careful and very meticulous and worked extremely hard to see that nothing we wanted to keep was damaged. In addition, they performed many extras (like edging around trees and back-filling black dirt up to the now exposed walkways) that were not originally discussed. George and Noel worked on our yard as if it was their very own. Like I said, it's the little things that make a good contractor into a great contractor. Did I mention it was 95 DEGREES that day?! We used to be embarrassed to have guests over to our house because of the garden and landscaping, but now we can't wait to show it off. Rent-A-Gardener did a fantastic job. Arun, keep up the good work. We will definitely recommend you our friends and use you again for our future landscape needs! Did I mention it was 95 DEGREES that day?! - Okay, you get the message, but I am still impressed how hard George and Noel worked in that oppressive heat - and not one word of complaint. We were fortunate enough to hire Rent-A-Gardener through the BIG DEAL offer, so we are well aware that the services they performed would cost a bit more - so our advice to all out there, if Rent-A-Gardner offers two gardeners for a day again on the big deal - BUY IT! Sincerely and Thanks again, Paul

They did an excellent job. The consultation with Arun was great, he was able to point out some things that needed fixing and was very up front about everything. The crew worked efficiently and accomplished more in one day that we could have in a month. Definitely worth it and highly recommend.

Arun came out to our house just a few days after I initially called to schedule an estimate. He was very courteous and professional. He quoted us two different prices, one with a full range of services I had indicated interest in, and another with a scaled back list. I appreciated the two different quotes based on how much I would want done immediately; it's a nice change from people trying to push you to purchase more than you want or need. I didn't end up getting the services done at all (through him or anyone else) because I couldn't afford to at the moment, but his price was fair compared to the other estimates I got and I would definitely call him when I am ready to invest some money into my yard.

Rent-A-Gardner is not inexpensive, but excellent service-superfast response and you get exactly the work as agreed to ahead of time. From the first purchase of the Angie's List coupon we got near immediate response. Would be happy to use again - when we are ready for further work. All businesses should be run this well.
