“After purchasing a home we decided to add a patio and landscaping to the backyard.”
After purchasing a home we decided to add a patio and landscaping to the backyard. Brian came out to discuss a design plan and the 3-D design was fantastic. Starting from that design we worked what we could into our budget and work began. Brian's team did a great job, everyone was very professional and all worked hard. The project finished in the time expected, even with significant periods of bad weather preventing work. We now have an amazing outdoor entertaining area and are thrilled with our new yard!

I have known Brian Awad for over 2.5 years now through a business relationship, and would like to mention to all who consider his company for landscaping service, that Brian a very ethical, caring and hard working individual. He uses quality, green equipment in his business which makes a difference as well. Brian has many satisfied customers and I'm amazed at the before and after pictures that I have seen of his work.

“I cannot say enough about how great our early business relationship has been with Awad Landscapes.”
I cannot say enough about how great our early business relationship has been with Awad Landscapes. We have two HOAs using their snowplowing services and they have been communicative, quick, and done outstanding work. Being in Chicago-proper we've had more than our fair share of issues finding quality snow removal services at a fair price. I'm thrilled to now have a service we can count on for many years to come. Thanks Brian et al!

“What a great experience!!”
What a great experience!!! Not like the rest of them. We have had many landscaping companies over the years and they all seem like they are a dime a dozen. You call them, they give you an estimate, you sign the contract and then you get the service provided. Blah, blah, blah. Same old song and dance. When Brian came out, he did a complete walk around and cared. Brian was interested in our ideas and what we wanted and he was up front with his strategy and asked us what our budget was so he can deliver our dream design. No point in wanting a dream and you are out of budget when this will never become a reality. Brian also was able to do everything online through an amazing portal Al communications are through this online portal. We have the ability to upload photos so he can see them. This helps avoid the idea we might give over the phone and more of an in-person experience. I love the 3D CAD design and how the work they put in the CAD reflects real products that will be used. Many I have seen look close, but they are different in the end as many generic objects are put in for the overall appeal. If you go with Brian and his company, Awad Landscapes & Design, you will not be disappointed. Brian is a straightforward person and upfront on all his work and prices.

“Brian provided a quick and reasonable estimate for planting grass in our back yard.”
Brian provided a quick and reasonable estimate for planting grass in our back yard. He helped us figure out the best type of grass seed to plant and his guys did a great job. Within two weeks of planting our yard already looked great. Brian is also very responsive to messages. I'd highly recommend Awad Landscapes!

Brian and his crew have been taking care of my landscaping and snow plowing for the last several years. They have always done a great job both winter and summer. Brian has been very responsive whenever I have reached out to him with any special needs. I highly recommend his company for landscaping, lawn maintenance, and plowing.
