Home Services reviews in Aurora, Illinois

Highly recommend Lockhart's Landscaping. Jack and his team did a fantastic job fixing a paver deck that a few others had tried to fix but hadn't succeeded. It has been a couple months and their work is holding up very well. They also did great work leveling and seeding an area of the yard that had been a playground. Friendly and easy to work with.

From the time I put in an inquiry online til the time Jack showed up for an estimate was maybe 2 hours. He gave us great suggestions for our yard and the price was right so we moved forward. Honestly, we couldn't be happier! Lockhart's is fast, efficient, and does an excellent job. We will definitely be using them again!

I had Lockhart's Landscaping & Maintenance remove a user-built double-wall retaining wall and replace it with a single wall using the Unilock blocks and cap. The crew did an excellent job and went to great lengths to protect my lawn. I 100% recommend Lockhart's for any landscaping needs.

Jack and his crew expanded our old paver patio. The original bricks were no longer available, so he did so using bricks from the border and replacing the border with a new style. It looks seamless. You would never know the 2 areas were done a decade apart. His crew was courteous and neat, the work was done in a timely manner, and the price was reasonable. We have now used them for 2 projects and would recommend his company without hesitation.

Jack and his crew did a wonderful job on a 25’ x 25’ paver patio in our backyard. Communication was great with Jack throughout the entire process. He had a small fleet of equipment and crew members there working hard everyday. All his equipment/trucks and no sub contractors. This was the first phase of a backyard overhaul and we will certainly use Lockhart for the rest next year.

We needed the grade to be raised around the home and downspouts to be extended and buried in order to help keep water away from the foundation. When I called for a quote, Jack Lockhart came out and was very professional when explaining what work he proposed to rectify our problem. Unlike other companies, he did not use scare tactics and his quote was reasonable.

On the day of the job, Jack brought out a crew of five people who took care of the job in under 6 hours. Jack came out before and after the job that day to make certain everything was done to our liking. I was very impressed with Jack's crew and the quality of work they performed.

I will definitely call Jack in the future for my landscaping and hardscaping needs.

I had decided to go with another provider who became non responsive when I saw Jack's crew doing some paver work at my neighbor's home. He was out to give a quote within 24 hours of our request. The quote was reasonable, and Jack, Francisco, and the crew delivered a beautiful patio in 1.5 days. I look forward to the next time my landscaping needs allow me to utilize Lockhart's Landscaping and Maintenance, Inc.

Jack and his team did a great job on landscaping and installing a new stone patio. His team was meticulous in the installation often measuring things several times to make sure everything fit according to plan. On creating the plan, Jack's experience often came into play as our design changed severeal times for the better based on Jack's suggestions. His team always cleaned up and made sure not to damage the adjacent lawn.

Having built more that 1 new home, I have had the opportunity to contract with many landscaping design and installation vendors and not one former experience has measured up to what I have experienced with Lockhart. From design through installation, Jack Lockhart was a "hands on" partner who listened intently to what my needs were, offered well informed guidance when required and personally supervised every aspect of the installation process. In addition, Lockhart's employees are all extremely professional and they, too sought to deliver a great customer experience. While not the least expensive, the service and quality are well worth the price. I would recommend that anyone considering landscape design and/or installation first speak with Jack before making a buying decision.

We've been satisfied customers of Lockhart's for over 25 years. They've done all of our shrubbery, all of our mulching, installed our brick driveway, and put in three retaining walls. They use top quality materials and the work crews are great. Jack takes the time to understand what it is you think you want, and then explain the options to you. We highly recommend them.

Lockhart’s just finished my front walk and back patio and I could not be happier! Jack the owner is fantastic to work with and he has great ideas if you aren’t exactly sure what you want to do! Also, I cannot say enough good things about his crew. Every single member worked so hard each day and they were all very polite and professional. The cleanup each day was awesome as well. Don’t hesitate and call Lockhart’s today for an estimate!!!

This was our second project with Lockhart's Landscaping and they exceeded expectations once again. Jack was very patient and reassuring as we discussed the design and the construction process for our new patio. His crew was prompt, courteous and extremely careful in minimizing the impact of the construction to the surrounding landscaping. The end result was a beautiful addition to our home and one that we will enjoy for years to come. We highly recommend Jack and his company for any of your landscape projects as they represent a real value, quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.

We recently purchased a 3+ acre property in St Charles and interviewed four landscaping companies to do the initial cleanup, weekly maintenance, and improvements. We decided on Jack Lockhart and are very happy with that decision. He brought a wealth of knowledge to the planning process, developed a multi-year plan that will work within our budget, and has been both responsive and attentive. His crew is also impressive. They've been at the house for three days and are hard-working, considerate, and very nice to deal with.

We had a budget and only a loose understanding of what we wanted in a patio. Jack helped us to develop an idea and an aesthetic we had never imagined and couldn't be happier with; and, his price came well within budget. Jack's crew work quickly and considerately. I was reluctant to speak with the crew, but when I did, they were friendly and receptive to any concern or question I had. We look forward to using Lockhart's Landscaping again next summer.

Highly recommend Lockhart!!! Francisco and his team just finished doing clean up, plant installation and mulch, in not ideal weather. Their work looks wonderful!! The team did the details which was impressive compared to other landscapers we used in the past, all within a reasonable price. In the beginning, Francisco provided great ideas on plant options with locations and was always available for questions. Again, highly recommend Lockhart's Landscaping!!!!!

We truly can't explain the appreciation and gratitude we have towards Jack Lockhart and his amazing crew! Jack was there from the beginning of the process to the end, with his advice, vision and professionalism. We had an idea of what we wanted and Jack and his crew went above and beyond all expectations. Our patio is beautiful...from the exquisite designs that were added to our seat wall, two designs in the patio, and our stone steps added the perfect detail to make our patio more than we could have asked for. Lockhart's Landscaping crew worked from morning to evening and adapted well to some changes we made along the way. The crew was polite, professional and respectful. We had multiple companies come out for estimates and plans for our new construction home but none of them exceeded the vision Jack had. Jacks professional expertise was exactly what we needed to accomplish the patio we wanted. Jack is a great business man and we will recommend Jack and his crew to anyone. We look forward to future projects with Jack.

Lockhart's had done two jobs for me and the work was outstanding. Francisco took the time to explain his game plan and executed it flawlessly. You do not find too many individuals these days who keep their word, show up when they are schedule to show up and are incredibly professional. This has been the very best experience we have had with any of our vendors. We highly recommend Francisco Rodriguez and Lockhart's Landscaping crew.

Chose Lockhart’s Landscaping after comparing 6 quotes for a patio made out of pavers for my townhome. Jack (owner) came out right away, provided a quote the very next day with a super competitive price, and was very accommodating with changes due to the pre-existing cement patio and home owners association. When dropping off the down payment, I was able to view the pavers and see the quality of work at their shop over the past 20 years. The day of the installation, 6 gentlemen showed up at 7am and were able to get the entire patio done in one day! I was blown away by their attention to detail, preparedness, and quality of work. They even replanted grass and plants that were removed for the patio. Have received multiple compliments on the patio since it’s gone in and will recommend everyone to Lockhart’s Landscaping!

I just had my front yard completely landscaped. The design was created by Denise Sandoval from Good-Natured Landscapes. She highly recommended Rent-A-Gardener for the installation which is owned by Arun Aggarwal. Once I hired this company, I knew I had made the best choice, and I understood why she recommended them. For every step of the project, Arun was there to make sure everything went smoothly. He communicated regularly with me, and he was at my house several times during the week of the installation to check on the progress. He also did a final walk-through to make sure the project met his high standards. All of the employees that I worked with on this project were wonderful. From the offfice staff to the installation crew, everyone cared about their work and wanted to do their best to please their customers. I couldn't be happier than I am with the final result! My front yard is gorgeous!

I was so happy with what Rent-A-Gardener did that I hired them to do clean up work and plant several new shrubs in my backyard. Again, Arun was there to make sure everything was done correctly. If there ever is a problem, he works to solve it and makes sure everyone is happy with the solution. My backyard hasn't looked this good in a long time! Just like my front yard, it's beautiful now!

Because of Rent-A-Gardener's commitment to professional service and customer satisfaction, they are a company that always goes above and beyond to do their best with any project. I highly recommend Rent-A-Gardener for any gardening needs you may have. They are an outstanding company!

I hired Arun and team after a so-called "landscaper" destroyed my garden (and my lawn and fence, but that's a separate issue). From the start, Arun was prompt and professional, and he explained everything from start to finish. I now have a fantastic garden that's well thought out and organized! I can't wait to use them for more projects. Thanks Rent-A-Gardener!! UPDATE: I've now used Rent-A-Gardener for a few projects, including a complete overhaul, fall clean-up, and smaller planting projects too. Always reliable, helpful and friendly. Will continue to use them for any and all gardening needs!

We are very happy with the results of our project. Arun and his team were easy to work with and responsive to our suggestions/needs. The crew arrived on time and completed the project as outlined in the proposal on time. We will certainly be contacting them for our future landscaping needs.
