Elmhurst’s homes boast gorgeous lawns, and its businesses welcome customers with beautiful landscaping. It’s the kind of town where you see kids playing in parks and sledding down hills, families strolling through neighborhoods.

Because of Northeastern Illinois’s climate, it can be difficult to keep up with landscaping in Elmhurst. In the summer, it’s hot and dry, but in the winter, Elmhurst residents deal with snow, rain, and ice. Fall brings a lot of leaf litter, and most of the year, there are weeds to battle and plants to water.

If you live or work in Elmhurst and are struggling to maintain your property’s yard, garden, and landscaping, Ware Landscaping is here to help. We’re also here if you have been staying on top of things but you’re tired of the hard work and effort — you can take a break and let us handle the hard stuff!

Whether you are looking for a landscaping plan that gives you a place to play, show off your home, increase your property value, improve your curb appeal, or entertain friends, Ware Landscaping can meet all of your needs. Hiring landscaping professionals who are knowledgeable and experienced will make your yard stand out among Elmhurst’s most beautiful properties.

““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.””

What people are saying

Ware Landscaping & Snow Removal

They did a great job and we are very pleased!

“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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Will A Landscaping Project Take?

The timeframe of a landscaping project is dependent upon multiple factors. For example, a project that involves placing new drains, grading the yard, and installing sod will certainly take longer than simply planting some new trees and laying new mulch. Most landscape projects take between one and six weeks. Don’t worry; we will review your project and give you a detailed projected timeline so that you know what to expect.

Do I Need Permits And Permission From The City To Start Landscaping?

Most landscaping projects that involve planting, mulching, or creating a new garden space don’t require any special permission from the city. However, some larger projects may need a permit. Installing pools, building retaining walls, and making major changes to your drainage system may all require permitting.

Ware Landscaping has the knowledge and experience with Elmhurst and DuPage County to know when a permit is required.

If You Design And Install My Landscape, How Will I Maintain And Care For It?

Many of our clients choose Ware Landscaping because we can provide stress-free landscaping maintenance. Our professionals can keep your landscaping looking its best, year-round. If you want to tackle landscaping maintenance yourself, that’s okay, too! We will walk you through the process of caring for your newly created yard or garden so that you know exactly what to do.
