Reviews of local pros in Oswego, Illinois

We have had the pleasure to work with M &M on a few occasions and each time it has been a great experience. Elie and his crew are incredibly professional, knowledgeable, kind and listen to what you really want. They had practical solutions and expert advice for each of our projects. I can’t begin to recommend M&M enough for any landscaping/outdoor project. I’m eager to work with them again and even a year later am beyond thrilled with their quality of work.

I cannot speak highly enough about the entire team at M&M. They were quick to respond to my initial inquiry about installing a new paver patio. I spent a lot of time emailing John, who was extremely knowledgeable and patient with me as I bounced probably 100 different design ideas off of him. He got back to me…every…single…time (quickly, too!). He was able to answer any questions my husband and I had and even offered his advice. Although I was extremely indecisive, he made the design process a breeze! I felt so completely understood and listened to by John and the owner, Elie. Elie is just an all around honest, respectful, knowledgeable, and hardworking guy. I loved asking for his advice, because he just told the truth and never pushed anything onto us. He is a guy who would never hesitate to make a situation right for his customers, and honestly, I feel like that is hard to find these days. It was such a pleasure working with this company, and I would 100% work with them in the future and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional service, and outstanding results. We love our new patio! :-)
(We used Unilock Holland Premier Heritage Brown with a herringbone layout + Brussels Sandstone for the firepit, wall, stairs, & coping. The wall has a Heritage Brown accent strip as well).

Very pleased with the work of this company! Excellent communication before and after the work! Worked to get it completed before an event! They repaired stone patio steps, cut back and trimmed shrubs and deep spade edging and mulch in all of our flower beds! Amazing!!

Couldn’t be more pleased with the completed project! M and M had the vision for our blank space. Big thanks to Elie and John.

This company is absolutely magnificent!! They’re very to the point, they listen to what you want, And make wonderful suggestions to help your project look it’s absolute best! They’re very efficient and arrive on time! They get the job done quickly and immaculately! I can’t say enough good things about their work! 6 ⭐️

Great company to work with. M & M does high-quality hardscaping work, communicates well, and takes pride in their craftsmanship. We’re always happy to partner with them and confidently recommend them to our customers.

Our entire experience with M&M has been outstanding. Elie and John have worked with us to design and install a beautiful porch, front stoop, patio and landscape. They worked within the constraints of our HOA guidelines while giving us something unique and establishing privacy.
The workmanship on our paver patio is excellent. When encountering a challenge due to existing house structures, Elie had innovative ways to surmount them. The plants his men installed were great quality.
After finishing work in late May Elie made it a point to let us know to keep in touch about how the plantings were doing. A couple of plants in our front bed were just not working out and one species on the shady side had died. After consultation, Elie brought out different plants and replaced the struggling ones. These are happier. He will keep working until your landscaping is great!
If you are looking for a reasonably priced landscaping company, that will stand behind their work, is easy to work with and very dependable M&M Outdoor Design and Hardscaping is the one to call. I can’t recommend Elie and his team enough!

Elie and his team are just amazing. I had a tree that needed to be removed and they were very efficient and quick. They took care to ensure that the debris from the tree was cleaned up and they ground the stump and put new sod down in its place. I know Elie and team will take care of whatever I need done. This is the second time I have used them and I already have ideas for them again soon. You will not be disappointed if you use M&M Outdoor Design and Hardscaping!

After my family and I were scammed by a fraudulent contractor who took tens of thousands of dollars from us and ghosted us with a job barely done, failed safety & city audits, we were devastated.

Then we found Elie and his M & M team through word of mouth & God blessed us! Not only were they extremely talented, quick & efficient, but they were patient, kind, professional, had awesome ideas, and TRUSTING! Not to mention licensed, bonded, certified, and offered financing!

They fixed a huge mess and built us a beautiful 2-story composite deck, and most importantly they built an absolutely gorgeous paver patio, with stairs & lighting features. Plus, they fixed an awful drainage issue we had in our yard, removed dead & outdated shrubs and replaced with fresh & relevant greenery and transplanted other plants we wanted to keep & installed rock gardens that we wanted. Oh and after they were done they even repaired the rest of our lawn that their equipment naturally ran over during a time of construction & design. Who does that?!?

We continue to partner with them on cleanups and maintenance & will recommend them to any and everyone who is seeking a reliable and trustworthy landscaping or hardscaping company in our neighborhoods.

Don’t get fooled by their size - they might be a small business, but they’re BIG in heart & customer service!

Thank you Elie & team. Our family & our home will be forever grateful! 🙏🏼

👌👌👌

Good experienced staff

Nice people and did a great and thorough job. Will be using this company again!

Service is consistently quality and professional. They were easy to contact and stay in touch with regarding the job.

I’ve used this landscaping company several times and will continue to go back. I can’t find anyone else better in the area and definitely recommend them.

Stephen and his guys did beautiful work on our paver patio, fireplace and sidewalk. He has returned to repair any problems encountered.

This company placed a tree in my mom‘s front yard. They were beyond helpful with removing a huge root to place a tree where she wanted it to be. Did an amazing job!

The Sinnott team showed up early, presented themselves professionally, and answered every question I had about my project. My yard looks great and my neighbors are looking to get theirs done next! I cant recommend them enough. Thanks Sinnott team for your great work.

Stephen personally returned my phone call, after leaving the company a voicemail regarding landscaping services. It can be frustrating and moreover, complicated, to have a HOA acting as middleman. So to speak, lines of communication get blurred and or break down. Despite this taking place, accountability for a service not rendered was then rectified. Stephen not only went as far as to not only take time to speak with me about the concerns we had brought to light, after repeated attempts to reach them through the management company hired through our HOA, but that he is willing to take more time to meet with us and our HOA to ensure this problem does not affect us or any other homes in the future. Greatly appreciated and the issues themselves have all stemmed to our management company hired through our HOA. Sincerest thanks and I apologize you all were caught in-between and labeled as the fall guy. The HOA should now take action with the management company as to make sure this does not happen to other homes and or businesses such as yourself again. I hope they both are willing to be reflective and accountable. Thank you for doing so, Stephen. Respectfully, Joe Davies

Stephen and his team installed a new patio, front paver walkway, and landscaping at my house. Super happy with the final product. The whole team is friendly and great to work with. Would recommend them to others and would use them again.

This company manages the landscaping for our townhouse HOA and came out to spray weeds in the grass. One of the landscapers also decided to spray our entire wildflower garden bed! My little girls helped start the garden bed from seed in the spring and grew it to attract pollinators (especially butterflies, their favorite). At the time they sprayed it the flowers were blooming! Sadly the flowers and plants have now all died and my kids are crushed! You'd think a landscaper would know not to spray a garden bed.

If you are thinking of using this company for mowing DO NOT! Horrible they don’t trim nor do they clean up the clippings and leave judge chunks in the yard. They mow in directions that throw the grass all over the houses and flower beds.
