Landscaping reviews in Elgin, Illinois

We trusted Bright Green to install our new lawn and all of our landscaping (trees, plants, retaining walls, and mulch/rock).

As a construction professional, I often seek three bids/proposals and then choose the contractor who I feel will be the best partner, which is usually not the person with the lowest price. That was the case with the landscaping on our new home build: Bright Green was not the lowest price BUT I truly feel they provided the best value and I could not be more pleased with the results. Their level of care, communication, professionalism exceeded my expectations (which I have to admit are high). Their entire team, from the field workers, foreman, in-house team, to the owner himself, were always very polite and followed through on their commitments.

Bright Green will be our landscaper moving forward, period. If I could give a sixth star I would!

Bright Green Landscapes was outstanding!! It's rare today that you can find a company that has it all - great communication, reasonable prices and fantastic service. I'm so glad I found them! I was in constant contact with the owner throughout the project. The crew arrived right on time, did a beautiful job and cleaned up perfectly. Everyone on the team was so kind and knowledgeable. And, wow, did they work quickly!! Given how much they had to clean up, fix up and remove, that's saying a lot! I will definitely be a repeat customer! I can't thank them enough!

Brandon’s Team has always done a great job for us. This time was no exception. It a a new house for us and a lot of overgrowth to take care of. Brandon came by the house and we discussed the work needed and the team did not disappoint. They even went above and beyond removing branches we did not talk about.

I would recommend Bright Green to anyone I talk to and will definitely be using them again.

Two thumbs up. The team just finished a fairly large mulching job on the house we bought last summer. The previous owner had not done much yard maintenance and so this was direly needed. The team did a great job spreading the mulch evenly and tidying up. Plus the mulch did not have an off putting smell! I worked with Brandon to get the quote and the process was very efficient and the price was very competitive. Will use them again.

From day one, Bright Green Landscapes was incredibly responsive, informational, and flexible. I requested an estimate for a top dressing after searching and not finding many places that offer this service. Got a call back quickly to schedule, then an estimator came out quickly. The owner, Brandon called me back to check in and answered a ton of questions. While talking I decided to get an estimate for a Spring cleanup because I had a feeling this was the company to do business with just from the interaction so far. Brandon himself came out to walk the yard and offered up ways to cut costs and accomplish some goals. IT was a no brainer to add on the spring cleanup. We chatted for a while and Brandon was happy to share the story of his business and we agreed that communication and customer happiness is top priority. This is a local business you want to support! Fast forward to the spring cleanup. The crew lead Carlos was incredible and took the time to run through all the work that would be done and introduced me to the whole crew. This is no easy job. .40 acre yard with lots of weeds and berms and mulch. Nailed it in 3/4 of a day. These guys are pros and where they could have cut corners, THEY DIDN'T. I remember txting my wife a picture with the words "wow". At the end of the job I walked out to thank the crew as they were having a late lunch. I had some lunch with them before they were off to their next job. Yes, another job after this huge task! Not very often you find a service company that gives you an itemized estimate, transparency on material, and even suggestion to help you cut costs on unnecessary work. BGL is that company and Brandon and crew are those guys! They also have a yearly service so you can live your life instead of lawn your life! Thanks Brandon and crew!

I spent a lot of time researching before deciding on Bright Green for our weekly lawn mowing, and the things that made them stand out the most were the prompt responses and professionalism of Brandon and Stephanie. So when we decided to do some landscaping this year, they were our first call. Brandon has been so easy to work with from coming out to do our initial estimate and design plan, keeping us updated on timeline, all the way through installation. He is transparent, responsive, very knowledgeable, and gave us some great suggestions on our design to best fit our needs. The whole crew showed up on install day on time and were incredibly efficient and professional. They made sure we were completely happy with the finished product. Aside from our landscaping looking great, they were a pleasure to work with! We will be using Bright Green for our next project and have recommended them to family and friends as well. Very happy customers!

Not even done with our project yet but they've been great to work with!! We inquired with 2 different companies who were impossible to get quotes from, not very responsive and didn't seem to want to do the work... Thankfully we found Brandon and Bright Green Landscapes who were the complete opposite and they've been great to work with!! As a fellow business owner, I appreciate someone who responds quickly, follows up and really cares about the job. They showed up with a whole crew ready to tackle the project quickly and looks so much nicer already and is not even finished! Would certainly recommend these guys! :)

We had an excellent experience working with Bright Green Landscapes. Their work and communication was exceptional. Everyone I spoke to was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. Brandon was out the very next day for a quote and was very helpful and patient with my questions and as I added services later on. They did a great job - very well worth the money. I wish I had called them sooner.

I couldn't be happier with the results of our recent landscaping project! From start to finish, the team was professional, creative, incredibly skilled and they finished in one day. I would highly recommend Brandon and his team at Bright Green Landscapes.

I hired Bright Green to do professionally what I had been trying to do myself "unprofessionally" including adding a garden to our back yard to showcase a small statue that means the world to my family. I can't express how fully they fulfilled the vision of what I wanted. The crew was just great and I can't believe how quickly and beautifully they were able to create the picture I had in my head - especially since it was close to 100 degrees with 70% humidity! Brandon and team, thank you for giving me a yard and garden I can be proud of!

Working with Brandon and his team was a great experience. We found Bright Green Landscapes through a quick Google search and out of the 4 companies we called they were the only ones who called us back. They called in less than 24 hours and were at our house to quote our project the next day. Brandon was great when he came out, and allowed us to ask questions. Our project wasn't large, just normal mulch and landscaping cleanup. He gave us a few suggestions for some of the problem areas we have like the drain from the gutters washing away the mulch. They were reasonably priced and when it came time for the work, the crew was great. They were able to clean up the landscaping and all super kind. We plan to work on future outdoor projects with Bright Green as they were easy to work with.

Bright Green did an excellent landscaping job for us. Brandon and his team were easy to work with and the results look great. We will definitely be calling them for any future projects.

We had a great experience with Bright Green. The crew showed up on time and were courteous and professional. The whole crew worked quickly but paid attention to detail. When the job was completed we had a walks round to make sure the job was done to our satisfaction.

Highly recommend Bright Green Landscapes! Brandon, from the start was great with communication and very patient with all my questions. His crew was very nice and professional. We are VERY happy with our front and backyard landscaping makeover!

We were very satisfied with Bright Green Landscaping! We had backyard garden flowers, bushes and grass seed put in. Brandon was very easy to communicate with and if we had a question or comment about, he responded right away. We found them online and read all the positive reviews and we would highly recommend and will probably use them again.

Bright Green Landscape did an outstanding job on our mulch installation and yard cleanup. Brandon came out gave us a fair quote, put us on their schedule and the work that the crew did was amazing. The mulch looks fantastic and we will be using them for all our future landscape needs.

Very professional and ON IT. I had my entire front yard re-done. Had all the bushes/trees torn out and had new ones put in. Brandon got back to me right away after me reaching out and he sent designs of what the yard would look like by that night. They knocked out the big project in a day and a half. I never even saw them working - I just came home to an amazing new yard. See pictures attached.

We were very satisfied with the work performed by Bright Green. Brandon was easy to communicate with and always quickly responded to our questions. His crew was on time, the work was done extremely well and our landscaping looks great. I would definitely recommend Bright Green.

Their attention to detail and professionalism are unmatched. The results speak for themselves — everything they've done for me has been impeccable. I’ve recommended their services to many homeowners and will continue to do so without hesitation.

If you’re looking for a landscaping company that offers reliable service, fair pricing, and total honesty, Bright Green Landscapes, INC. is the one to call. Thank you again, Brandon and Stephanie!

We recently had an in ground pool installed on the backside of our property that left our yard looking ROUGH. In order to continue with the natural woodland & pasture look that surrounds us, we wanted to keep the hardscaping to a minimum to focus on trees, native grasses & perennials, and a rock border around the pool with the intension to layer more design elements over time for a "slow design" approach. We met with handful of landscape companies that kept trying to sell us on super manicured masonry designs that would cost just as much, if not more, than the pool itself. Each meeting felt like we were being talked at instead of listened to. This all changed when I had Brandon at Bright Green Landscapes come to our property. He instantly got what we were wanting and was more than willing to talk costs then and there (which was UNREAL after dealing with so many companies that refused this until after we said what our budget was). We signed the contract the next day and about a week later his guys came out and had the entire job finished in two days. They graded and tilled the slope, added an inch of top soil to the 6000 sq ft area, installed 4 large evergreens, installed a chipped rock border around the pool, and seeded & blanketed the entire space incredibly fast. We will absolutely be working with them in the coming months to install the next phase that will include a few pathways, some more garden bed installs and a big fire pit area. Absolutely an amazing business! 10000% recommend.

Great job! Professional Workmanship in a timely fashion. The crew did a fantastic job of planting a new tree and trimming some Arborvitae. Clean up was impeccable. I highly recommend Brandon and Bright Green if you want a good job at a great price.
