Guy Scopelliti Original Landscaping Company

I called their office and said I needed to talk to someone concerning my garden.

They do exactly what I ask. They are my go-to landscaping crew.

Through the design process, they worked with us to understand what type of garden we wanted. Once they started working, the job went quickly and smoothly. The workers were respectful, professional, and very knowledgeable. They worked with us every step of the way to ensure the new garden would meet our expectations, making suggestions regarding slight modifications in the plan as the project progressed.

I purchased my home in Northbrook last fall and for some reason, the little old lady that lived there had at least 25% of the back yard as dirt and loose rock. It was also about 4-6 inches below the grade of the rest of the yard and curved around two trees. For the life of me, I can't figure out why she had the yard that way but it severely reduced the useable area of my yard. Guy's team removed a ton of debris left from my fence installer (shrubs, railroad ties, etc.) and brought in at least one truck load of dirt to fill in and regrade the yard. That took one full day. They came back the next day to sod. The yard looks amazing and now it's up to me to keep it watered so it doesn't die!

I called early last week for an estimate on a retaining wall that is currently falling down. I was given an appointment time of 4:00 p.m. on 9/22 and described the scope of the wall. After I hung up - I was under the impression that GUY would be out to assess the falling retaining wall. After leaving work an hour early upon arriving home the landscape truck was in the driveway waiting. I was pleased that he was on-time. However, after the individual got out of the truck - it was a young woman. She introduced herself and stated that she was going to write up an estimate. I asked her if she has done this before - she said no. She would write down the information and give it to Guy who would call me back. I asked her if they have done a project the scope of this (the wall at highest point is 18' high) - she said she didn't know. I asked her background and experience in estimating projects especially this scope -- and she informed me that she was new but that she would write down everything and Guy would call me back. I don't have a problem with the fact that she was new - that's fine - however, someone with KNOWLEDGE should have accompanied her to the site! Obviously Guy is doing quite well and doesn't need business. How can I get an ACCURATE estimate - moreover - how can I trust the estimate I receive back is accurate? This was a waste of my time - and given the fact that I left work early - thoroughly upsets me.

He is fair and reasonable. He does a fine job. I find him more competitive in price than most of the other landscapers in the area. He is honest and responsible. They had a nice landscape designer that works with the company that is helpful.

Guy was able to get the problem solved and the yard looks nice. I used him the one time, but I no longer use their service. They are great though and I would use them again. They are very knowledgeable.
