Residential Landscape maintenance plans to fit your needs
EXPERIENCED LANDSCAPE CONTRACTORS
You’ve come to the right place to get the care needed for your new or existing landscape! James Martin Associates has been enhancing residential and commercial landscapes in the north and northwest suburbs of the Chicago area for over 43 years.
Our professional landscape contractors will proactively manage your landscape, saving you the worry while allowing you the enjoyment, season after season.
We will work closely with you to develop a long-term maintenance plan that works with your needs and budget to ensure a beautiful, well managed landscape for your home or business.
“I just wanted to say thank you for the great job your guys did for me this autumn. I see what a job the guys do and it makes me realize the difference between an amateur and a professional. Everything is beautiful and has that well-manicured look without being fussy. Having your help allows me to spend more time gardening, rather than maintaining.”
ENRICHING YOUR LAWN AND LANDSCAPE
Our core belief is to encourage and enhance nature’s beauty. Left untended, a once beautiful landscape can become overgrown after only a few short years.
With regular landscape maintenance, informed adjustments, and proactive care by James Martin Associates, your garden will mature into the landscape you envisioned.
Not all landscape companies are the same! Some offer only the most basic services without the knowledge to help you fix dying turf or drainage issues, and other companies struggle to keep you informed throughout the seasons.
James Martin Associates is proactive in solving issues even before they present themselves, and we consult with you monthly to make sure you are happy with our landscape services.
Your Lifelong Landscaping Partner
If the need should arise, your Account Manager can collaborate with one of our Landscape Architects and will seamlessly address your home’s needs. From standard landscape services to major renovations, we have the expertise and experience you want.
Let the James Martin Associates team help maximize the enjoyment of your garden and enrich your life.
