Brian and his crew did a fantastic job with our yard. We installed artificial turf, new paver walkway, as well as some shrubs and a tree. The crew was very professional, honest and prompt. The online portal for showing progress, scheduling and so on is easy and convenient! Highly recommend Brian Awad!

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!

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.

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.

My clients recently purchase a home in Park Ridge that had not been lived in for the last several months. The sellers were not keeping up with the maintenance of the home, especially the yard work. With two large trees in the front and back of the house and winter knock on the door. About a foot of leaves were on the ground. My clients were not looking forward to picking all this up before it snows. As a gift to my clients I called Brian at Awad landscaping, and he was out there the next day. He and his crew were excellent and quick to respond. My clients couldn't be happier with there new home and not having to take care of the yard till spring. Thanks again, and I would highly recommend Brian Awad and his landscaping crew.

Brian and his team are fantastic to work with - professional, responsive, and most importantly, do a great job. The maintenance crew gives a lot of attention to our property and our lawn looks better than ever. I am currently having the company do some additional landscaping work, as I've been so pleased with the level of service they provide.

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!

I worked with Brain and Awad landscapes while remodeling my home and awaiting the arrival of our second child. After the initial meeting at our house, we decided to pay the deposit to have a design proposal created for our yard. The initial design was not what we were looking for at all. Our first meeting was slightly rushed, and, as a result, there were definite miscommunications in terms of the scope and scale of the proposal. After giving feedback, the design was much more in line with what we wanted, and what was feasible budget-wise. I spoke with Brian and we were able to make modifications to the contract in order to lower the price, and keep the overall look we wanted. Once agreeing upon a contract, installation was very quick and professional. And it just so happened that our second child came early and we couldn't be home during the installation. Brian worked with my father-in-law to discuss what was happening, emailed me updates, and even helped to water the new plants and grass after installation. Brian provided written instructions for the lawn care, and came by a couple weeks later to walk through everything with me and give me tips to do some lawn and shrub care on my own. While our transaction started off rocky, I am very pleased with the results. And to Brian's credit, whenever I had an issue, he followed-up with a phone call to make it right. I would recommend Awad landscape designs to anyone with medium to large projects, and to those who aren't sure exaclty what they want to do, as Awad can design something for you.
