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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Long Will A Landscaping Project Take?

The duration of a new landscaping project depends entirely on the type of work that’s being done. A yard drainage project will almost always take longer than laying down new sod, for example. You can expect our projects to last anywhere from one to six weeks. When you first contact us, we will provide you with a specified project timeline.

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

A permit may be required for major projects such as installing a pool, building a retaining wall, or making changes to a property’s grading or drainage.

However, minor projects such as planting trees and flowers, installing a sprinkler system, or building a small garden bed don’t require a permit. Our knowledgeable team is familiar with Chicagoland communities’ regulations, so when you meet with us to discuss the scope of your project, we will advise you on whether or not you need permits.

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

The seasons in Chicago can be extreme, each bringing its own challenges. It is, therefore, a good idea to let our professional landscape maintenance staff help keep your landscape looking its best throughout the year. We will also do irrigation check-ups to ensure that your irrigation system is working efficiently.
