Located in Suburban Chicago, GroundsKeeper Landscape Care was founded as Jarr Tree Service in 1995 by Jeff Jarr. Since our modest beginnings, GroundsKeeper has expanded to become a full service landscape provider. I am proud to be the owner and president of this fast growing, respected, full-service landscape company.
We attract team members whose values match our own; team members who have a passion to serve customers with excellence, honesty and integrity. With roots as a tree service, we share your enthusiasm for the ways that trees enhance your quality of life. For our certified arborists, caring for trees is both a profession and a way of life.
We contribute our time and expertise to the communities we serve, whether sitting on our town's citizen tree body, giving talks to local schools, or providing trimming services for the Morton Arboretum. While growing the Landscape Design and Installation portion of our business, we took similar pride in providing landscaping that makes your landscaping an extension of your home.

Services
Landscaping is often overlooked, but it can add significant value to your home. More importantly, a properly designed landscaping will allow you and your family to enjoy the outside of your home as much as the inside. At GroundsKeeper Landscape Care, we want to help you enjoy the exterior features of your home.
We have Arborists and crew members with all the skills necessary to safely complete the most difficult and hazardous removals. GroundsKeeper is also equipped to grind stumps of any size. GroundsKeeper Landscape Care's Certified Arborists can provide a variety of consulting services including tree surveys.
GroundsKeeper Landscape Care takes a horticulturally sound approach to shrub trimming that is much different than most landscape companies. Simply put, from a horticultural standpoint, shrubs are small trees. Most people would not take shears to their trees and rely on professionals to prune them. We recommend the same approach for your shrubs.
Bring the holiday spirit to light with professionally designed and installed holiday lighting!. We offer Holiday lighting services for residential and commercial customers. We feature premium LED lighting that uses less than 10% of the electricity compared to standard lighting. Not only does this reduce your electric bills during the holiday season, but it is environmentally friendly.
While your landscaping is an extension of your home, landscape lighting helps illuminate the beauty of your home and landscaping. At GroundsKeeper we believe that your lighting design is as important as our landscaping design. Considerations include safety, focal points and vantage points. Unique Lighting offers an integrated system that creates a lighting portrait.

I love the beautiful landscaping that Groundskeeper did for us! Austin's plans were exactly what I wanted! He added new perrinials of beautiful colors, replanted some, cut back trees and bushes, sod, mulch and created rock gardens throughout.
The quality and professionalism is amazing. I recommend Austin and his team at Groundskeeper!

I need more stars for GroundsKeeper Landscape Care. Austin was a marvel in climbing that very tall Locust tree that was removed. Obviously not his first. His 2 assistants were at the ready with ropes and helped to make everything safe. They also trimmed other bushes and planted a couple things. This is probably our 3rd time in using Groundskeepr and will continue. I know Austin has a reminder to call in winter to discuss winter shrub trimming-the best time. The clean up was sensational. Other then seeing the ground chips covering where the stump was removed and now the lack of shade you would never

Positive: Quality, Value
Very pleased with the work Austin did with removing a large Oak tree over our house and garage. The crew worked with extreme care and efficiency to make sure nothing hit the garage or an ornamental tree below the Oak. Austin is a very hardworking young man who does great work!

From start to finish Jose Ramirez, owner of the Green landscape company, was a class act A+++ service. Jose and his workers were terrific. No detail was left undone, they listen to my needs and questions carefully, and we're so very professional. The quote was a great price. They took my backyard from nothing 2 showroom-ready and a fraction of the quoted time frame. They took the time to explain everything to me, go over a selection a variances in the plants I had selected and suggest improved varieties. I could not be more happy with the company, the service, the quality, the price,

We have been lawn care, mowing and yard cleaning for several years and are very happy with the service we receive. Once a week they send a crew that mows the lawn, trims around flowerbeds and driveway. Always leave no mess behind. We have a corner lot on a busy street with a stoplight. They also remove the clutter left behind by "litterbugs"
Overall we are very pleased with our choice of landscapers

Buyer beware: I hired this company for two years in a row to trim 4 bushes in our front yard and both years they over charged me. The first year they overcharged the time they were here, and after a couple of months of calling, adjusted the price to the one hour they were actually here doing work. This year they charged the same amount so I assumed they overcharged the time they worked. Wrong! They reported that there were 3 men doing one hour of work. Both years I kept track of time spent and men present and this past year I had one hour of work done by 2 men. If you hire this company, be present
