Since 1991, we have been providing excellent landscaping solutions to the residents of the Chicagoland, Northern Illinois and Southeastern Wisconsin areas. Our team has over 200 years of staff knowledge and experience. Which includes a combined 80 years of experience designing landscaping, 90 years constructing 180 years snow management and 190 years maintaining.

We are a family-owned and operated company and since our start in 1991, we have been holding to our core values, which are respect, understanding, stewardship, and performance. We show how we hold to these values by performing our work to the best of our abilities and with integrity. I wanted to write a quick note to acknowledge what a great experience we have had with Mike B.

For residential and commercial clients alike, we offer breathtaking designs and collaborative builds because your property deserves the best. Whether you need a pergola, paved driveway, or patio installed to your property, we're the ones to call. Let us build you the hardscaping you want.
Services
UNDERSTANDING - Listening to the needs and expressions of our partners with a focus on the ever-changing trends and advances in horticulture and snow management. STEWARDSHIP - Integrating a balance of environmental responsibility, conscientious investment and aesthetic development when creating decisions based on your property.
What makes a great outdoor area rests in the needs and tastes of the owner. While some people prize seclusion and privacy, others delight in creating a space for social gatherings. Accordingly, the first step of our process is a detailed consultation. We'll work with you to identify your objectives, discuss the space you'd like to create, and explore your options for achieving your goals.
With planning complete, our skilled craftsmen have everything they need to execute the design. Our team has created hundreds of gardens over the years ranging from large scale multi-family communities to small commercial and private gardens. No matter the scale of the project, we'll use our expertise to turn the paper plan into a stunning real-life garden you'll enjoy for years to come.
While it's an exciting moment, finishing the landscaping is just the start of the journey. A beautiful garden is an asset to be treasured - and with proper care, it will thrive for years and decades to come. As time passes, the plants and landscape will grow together, increasing in beauty and harmony.
From tree pruning to tree removal, we are the ones to rely on for personalized tree care services. Are you unsure if your tree needs intervention? We offer tree analysis, which includes tree structure evaluation and plant diagnostics. Our pruning and trimming includes ornamental pruning, while our removal includes stump grinding.

We had a great experience with Apex Landscaping. They were the last piece of a construction project we had going on in our backyard. There was lack of communication on the builder's end which delayed Apex starting but Bob got the guys here ASAP and finished up the regrading and sodding. His employees were professional and eager to complete the job in a timely manner. It looks great!!

This company is neglectful and lazy. They are contracted by my apartment complex in Addison to plow 3 separate parking lots. Twice now, they have plowed 2/3 during the snow fall and then abandoned the job without finishing only to return and finish after there are complaints from the residents about their cars being stuck. Abandoning a job once, IMO, is grounds for termination. To abandon it twice is negligence and grounds for breach of contract. Quite frankly, this company should not be contacting jobs they aren't able to manage or complete properly. They should also consider replacing some

We have used Alex for several years for our plantings and weekly service. They are professional and the service is top notch. We recently had them put in a large brick paver patio, walkway and fireplace and it looks fabulous!

I have had nothing but good experiences with Apex. Their customer service is second to none and their workers go above and beyond. I am so thankful I called them to do my lawn service!

Will try to keep this short. We contracted with Apex in the spring of 2016 to do clean up and flower bed maintenance through the summer. For the initial service they didn't even send Apex employees, just a random group of guys that that did a terrible job.

After getting Apex supervisor out to see the terrible work, he admitted the crew were contractors, not employees and that going forward the work would be better.

Over the course of the summer Apex showed up sporadically (never a set schedule) and continued to NOT do a thorough job of maintenance. This was the ONE job we paid them for

Would give 0 stars if possible. The owner only cares about his commercial accounts and won't take responsibility for his employees. Both spring and fall clean ups were incomplete and never finished after calling office countless times. Despite what contract states, you won't get more than mow and go @ weeds never pulled, edging, or pickup of fallen branches or debris. Leaves were blown to property line, on neighbors property, left between shrubs and trees, on patio, and by doors. Messages don't get returned, receptionist is defensive, and typical reply is everything requires

Have had great experiences with Mike Burkland at Apex. Very thorough, knowledgeable and genuinely cares about getting great results. We use them for weekly lawn care as well as some recent major projects and are very happy.
Thanks Apex!

Thanks for coming during supper time. Trying to have a nice dinner with guests, and we can barely hear each other. Most inconsiderate landscapers, goes really well with our very inconsiderate property management.
