Home Services reviews in Oak Lawn, Illinois

I saw Don's Custom Landscape trucks down the street from my house this week. They did a great job cleaning up the brush and bushes at a very unkempt house! I would definitely call them for Landscape and clean up work! Looks great! Kudos!

Salem UCC in Oak Lawn has been using Don's landscaping for decades. They are the best and go up and above to make our church grounds look fabulous. Service and reliability is key. Highly recommend!!

I’ve known Mr Don for many years and have had the privilege of seeing his work first hand , He is a professional Artist that takes great pride in his designs . All of his work is amazing and guaranteed but what most definitely puts him above many is that he goes over and beyond what is expected. So without a shadow of a doubt I recommend him to anyone that enjoys beauty surrounding their home . Louie from No Problem construction.

Don ( the owner ) is a very personable guy who has excellent knowledge about his craft. He knows what he's doing and will give you a fair price for quality workmanship and products. Highly recommend

Highly recommend! Don's landscaping has been used by my family for almost 20 years. The job gets done in a timely manner. All the crews that came out were very respectful and they always work so hard. You will not be disappointed.

I would highly recommend Don’s landscaping! My parents are elderly and let their miniature cherry tree go to the point it was so overgrown. He gave me a quote the day I contacted him and was at their house to provide his service within the same week. Very reasonably priced and Don was very knowledgeable about the tree and its deteriorated state. Stand up guy, great price, and great work!

Don was super helpful when we spoke. Cannot thank him enough for the help and really came across as very knowledgeable and honest.

If it were possible, I would give 10 stars. Excellent from start to finish in every way. Don instantly understood my needs. He provided great suggestions. Started work immediately. His employees left my yard neat at the end of each workday. Totally transformed my property front and back. Overgrown weeds, small unwanted trees eliminated. Lovely new plantings and mulch put in front beds as well as heavy plastic and stone where weeds once were. No longer will this be problematic for me. It's such a relief to have all this work completed. Promptly, efficiently, and at a very reasonable rate. Thank you, Don, ever so much for everything 🌻

I just had my backyard done. It went from dirt and weeds (some grass) to a beautiful yard with a serene feel to it. Don gave great suggestions . He very much takes into consideration if you are a dog owner. I think the cost was very reasonable as well.

To say don was very professional and extremely helpful would be a understatement. Honestly can't say enough good things about Don and his crew. They did an great job on our front walkway and backyard. Couldn't be happier with the end result and the service.

Even though Don's company doesn't offer service in our area, he went above and beyond to assist us by providing considerations to keep in mind regarding a fencing and landscaping insurance matter. Thank you so much, Don!

I highly recommend using Don’s Custom Landscaping! I have two large flower beds in front of my house that need an overhaul. Don and his crew came out and efficiently removed the lava rocks and soil, a job that was far too big for me to handle on my own. They got it done quickly and professionally, and I'm happy with the results. Now I can continue my garden project without the pain of removing what was left from the previous owners.

Don was fantastic to work with — very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I’m so glad to have this project completed, and it’s such a relief to have it off my plate.

I would absolutely use Don again for any future landscaping needs and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others!

I needed a tree for shade. I saw Dons excellent reviews and went with his company. They didn’t disappoint. Beautiful job without a long wait. Very happy!

Don’s provided amazing service to my backyard! A fall cleanup & sprucing up my overgrown backyard!

Don’s landscaping is very professional, quickly responsive, a well established landscaping company. I’m very pleased & impressed by the quote, friendless interaction from the phone calls to the install. He communicates well via phone & text with photos of your product before they are permanently planted. - very honest nice guy!

Big 12 foot tall shrubs removed by his team, excavated & new fresh ones installed with mulch on the left & right side. Looks great! I love it.

Don and his crew came and removed a rock bed that was about a foot deep in my front yard. They went above and beyond and removed old roots from the pre-existing bushes. Don was very personable and fairly priced. I will be using them again in the future!

Recently took down a pool and Don was able to come out with an estimate and schedule his crew timely for a new sod install. Excited to have a full backyard thanks to the great work of Don and team.

Don and his crew were great! Don went over my options and explained everything very clearly. They arrived on time and worked their bottoms off despite the heat. When the job was completed they had everything cleaned up. One thing I especially liked was that Don is not just an owner who schedules the work and disappears until it's time to collect the payment. He was right in the trenches with the rest of the crew. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for landscape work.

Can’t say enough of what Don and his crew did for me. They are all very professional and are there to get the total job done to your satisfaction. They go above and beyond. Would highly recommend them for all you landscaping needs.

Experienced! Honest! Reliable! Exceptional! My lawn and overall landscaping, in front and back, was looking pretty dull. My daughter is getting married this summer so I needed everything to look great for the after-wedding party in my backyard. Other than knowing I wanted new sod (only in front) and simple, low maintenance plants/shrubs/flowers, I really didn't know what to replace the old stuff with. Don is VERY knowledgeable and threw out a bunch of ideas. I pretty much went with his recommendations and I'm very happy with the results. I've had many compliments from neighbors and people walking by. His crew are good, hard working guys! You won't find Don delegating, he's right in there helping out. And he has the power tools and landscaping equipment to do the job right. What I also liked, was how Don explained how to care for the lawn, flowers and shrubs. He gives you a watering schedule and also recommends fertilizing the lawn at 6 weeks post sod installation. Last landscaping company that installed my new sod several years ago never did that! I was so happy with his work, I hired him to do another smaller landscaping job at a property I own not far from my home. The results were just as good! When calling or emailing Don with any questions or concerns, he always called back within 24 hours, usually sooner. I can't recommend Don's landscaping enough! Don will also come back and prune or deadhead/cut back the plants/flowers for a very reasonable fee. Since I do not have a green thumb, I will be calling him in late fall to do so! FYI, the first three photos I posted are the "before" photos. Thank you, Don, for your great customer service!!!

This is a review on a second job Don did for me. I tried to separate this review from my original one above, however, Google said I already posted a review and the only option I had was to edit. As stated above, I was so happy with the results at my personal property that I asked Don if he could do a small job at a property I own not far from my home. Don and his crew installed fresh sod and planted a row of about 14 or 15 summer crush hydrangeas in the backyard. He also replaced the old plants in front, however, I did not take before or after photos of the front. Here are the results! The first seven photos (beginning with the yellow garage) are the before photos. Thank you, Don, for turning this ugly backyard into a beautiful space! It was great working with you and your crew!

Don and Don's Custom Landscaping is amazing. We moved in three months ago and had an overgrown, patchy yard with stone, sand, and a rotting old pool deck that needed to be removed. I was quoted by six companies and Don's was, legitimately, the only one to offer to come out to even LOOK at the property and shake my hand.

He quoted us out, worked with us on pricing, and even after rain delays came out and was done in two days. Not only did he redo my lawn, but even took the time to walk my wife and I through the next three weeks of care, in detail.

I cannot suggest you call Don's enough. He and his team were truly professionals from first call to last. They did a truly remarkable job.
