  We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Martin John Landscaping. From the very beginning, Martin was incredibly involved in the planning of our patio renovation. He took the time to understand exactly what we wanted, offered thoughtful suggestions, and was available throughout the entire process to answer questions and make sure every detail was right - even making frequent trips out to ensure everything was progressing properly. He handled everything from patio demo, construction, masonry, landscaping, lighting, and even helped us furnish the space with patio furniture. One of the most impressive parts of the project was how smoothly everything ran. The work was completed exactly according to the timeline we were given, which made the entire renovation stress-free. His crew was professional, hardworking, and always respectful of our home and family. They consistently moved construction equipment so that we could navigate our vehicles out of our driveway The quality of the finished patio exceeded our expectations, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. If you’re looking for a landscaper who is organized, communicative, and delivers exceptional results, I highly recommend Martin John Landscaping. We would absolutely use them again, and even added on some driveway repair after seeing how efficiently they handled our patio :)

  Just completed my first project with Martin John Landscaping and they did a great job from proposal to execution. Martin himself stopped by to prepare an estimate and was great to deal with. The price was reasonable and the crew he sent today knew what they were doing-very nice and professional. I will be doing more landscaping work with Martin John Landscaping in the future. Highly recommend.

  This is our first experience working with the Martin John Company. Based on our positive interactions with the company and neighborhood referrals, we pursued 2 landscaping projects this year. One involved a replacement of old, tired or dead shrubs and the other was a major new landscaped berm and enhancement to the side and back yards to block traffic. We are completely thrilled with the outcome of both projects! Our initial meeting with the head of Martin John and Christen, an experienced arborist and landscape architect, set the tone. All parties have been very easy to work with, flexible and brought deep expertise to our landscape challenges. Christen has been a delight to work with and she introduced us to new and exciting shrub and tree options that are suited to this area. MJC was patient and responsive in dealing with ARB approval requirements and were flexible regarding scheduling. Omar and the installation crew did an excellent job over the 3.5 days for the big project. Overall, we are extremely pleased with the outcome and we highly recommend Martin John Company, Christen and their team for your landscaping needs.

  Martin and team helped us design an outdoor escape for our new home in Highland Park. From the initial meetings with Martin working on creating a design that blended both of our aesthetics and working within a budget, we knew that working with Martin and team was the right decision. Martin was very communicative, the project was relatively done on time, and the outcome was better than we anticipated. We are extremely happy with the craftsmanship, and level of detail that Martin and team took to complete our job.

  While renovating a Lake Bluff home last year, we decided to renovate the landscaping as well. We had experience over 36 years with a variety of local landscapers, but we decided to work with Martin John. It took about two visits to know we made the right decision. From the initial planning through “demolition” of the old planting and install of new, everything went off as planned and on schedule. They handled the irrigation install and maintenance, lighting and the maintenance of booths Martin is accessible anytime we need him. His install crews and maintenance crews are great. (As an aside, Martin speaks fluent Spanish so there is never a communication issue with the crew) Our first season looked more like the third. Everything came in as we hoped. I highly recommend Martin John.
