Our Chicago Lawn Maintenance Services
Our comprehensive lawn maintenance services in Chicago focus on your whole yard to ensure your lawn is healthy and pristine. Ware Landscaping will take care of laying organic fertilizer and mulch, lawn mowing, raking leaves, and weeding.
You can have peace of mind year-round by combining our lawn maintenance and snow removal packages to protect your property through every season.
Here are some of the services included in Ware Landscaping Chicago lawn maintenance.
Mulching
Mulch is a vital component to a thriving yard. However, mulching should be timed to ensure it works correctly. The ideal time to lay mulch is in mid-to-late spring when the ground thaws and soil warms.
Healthy plant growth can be stifled if mulching doesn’t occur until summer, and if you lay mulch too early, plant roots may not get crucial nutrients and soil health can suffer.
We’ll lay the perfect amount of mulch to add protection to plant roots and provide ground moisture for healthy soil. Mulch deposits vital nutrients into your soil, prevents out-of-control weed growth, organically decomposes, and is eco-friendly.
Spring Clean Up
As cold Chicago winters transform into warmer weather, your yard needs spring rejuvenation. Our Chicago lawn maintenance services help you to usher in the warmer months by prepping your lawn for healthy growth.
The Ware Landscaping spring clean up includes the blow out and clean up of your flowerbeds, gardens, and other areas of your lawn, edging your flowerbeds and gardens, and trimming of your plants. We also provide additional lawn services like the clean up of your perennial beds to support new plant growth, and pruning of your shrubs.
Local property owners can count on our Chicago lawn maintenance services to be customized to meet your property’s unique needs.
Organic Fertilizer Program and Weed Control
We use high quality, kid, pet, and eco-friendly organic fertilizer to help keep your yard safe for your loved ones. Our fertilizer promotes quality weed control by reducing weed growth, and renews healthy soil to protect your lawn, flowers, plants, and trees.
Fall Clean Up
Our autumn clean up alleviates the mess of fallen leaves and prepares your property for winter. Our Chicago lawn maintenance services feature a fall clean up that includes plant pruning and leaf raking to keep your yard looking great.

In Chicago, the best time for mulch installation falls in mid-to-late spring, after the ground thaws and healthy soil has a chance to warm up. Mulch supports the health of your soil and growth of your flowers and plants by allowing your seedlings to take root and thrive.
However, overmulching a yard can kill grass and prevent nutrients from reaching plant roots. Ware Landscaping mulch installation specialists can ensure every area of your yard includes the right amount of hardwood mulch.
Ware Landscaping uses organic fertilizer that promotes healthy grass and plant growth. This allows for shaded soil which blocks weed seedlings from germination and nourishes your lawn.
Organic fertilizer allows vital nutrients to reach your soil, improves soil structure, strengthens your grass root system, and creates a physical barrier against weed growth.
An ineffective drainage system could create significant damage and expenses, lowered property value, and even health risks. Conversely, an excellent drainage system can save you money, prevent soil erosion, flooding, standing water, black mold, insect infestation, swampy yard conditions, and so much more.
Ware Landscaping drainage specialists provide customized drainage solutions to help you enjoy your yard for years to come.

“I contacted Mike at Ware Landscaping for help with fixing my flooded backyard and garage. Mike gave me an honest assessment of my situation and recommended the right system to fix my problems (a lot of issues). Ware Landscaping installed drainage, underground downspouts, underground sump pump lines, driveway drains and surface drains in the yard to fix all my problems.. The team was very professional and always asked for my approval on work being done before it was completed. They did a great job and we are very pleased!”
Jim Kristof
I recommend him without any hesitation.
“We had a water problem in our basement that Mike Ware completely eliminated by removing both our sump pump water and downspout water away from the home. He was professional and highly motivated to solve the problem and do it the right way. I always felt like a priority and that my project mattered. I recommend him without any hesitation.”
Michael Swider
FANTASTIC JOB!!!
Ware Landscaping did a FANTASTIC JOB!!! I needed my entire backyard regraded and they filled it in with more than 2 truck loads, installed a French drain and put new beautiful green sod on top. They also power washed and reset my front retaining wall. Communication from the beginning was always very good. We always knew when they were coming out. The project was completed on time as well. They also called on their own a month after the project to check on the sod and were willing to replace some spots due to the June heat wave. Would recommend Ware Landscaping to all!!!”
Dan Malloy
The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail.
“Mike, Greg and the rest of the crew made our back yard dream a reality with a drainage system to remove the stream that flowed through the middle of the yard, which flooded every rainstorm and stuck around for weeks. To complete the look in came a perfectly designed beautiful hardscape patio that we can’t wait to use this summer. The entire crew were incredible, so friendly, knowledgeable, and paid attention to every detail. Highly recommend!”
Katie Jankowski
The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy.
“We had a wooden deck for a front porch that was starting to age. When we removed it we saw that there was a concrete slab underneath it that was pitched toward our house, creating an issue with standing water up against our foundation. We had Mike come by to advise us on the best solution, and he suggested permeable pavers. We were able to come up with a custom design with him that day. The crew was fast, friendly, and tidy. I’m sure they do much bigger jobs than our little patio, but this project made a huge difference for our home.
