Bur Oak’s Design-Build service handles your landscape project from first sketch through final installation. Our in-house design team creates plans informed by what actually grows in Illinois, what our construction crew can build on budget, how we can maximize your budget and what our maintenance team can realistically care for year after year. One team manages the whole thing — no handoffs, no miscommunication.

Sidewalks, patios, retaining walls, pavers, and curbs built to spec and built to hold up under commercial traffic and Midwest winters.
Trees, shrubs, sod, and groundcover selected to thrive in your site's specific conditions — not just look good on day one.
Outdoor lighting that improves safety after dark, deters problems, and shows off the property after hours.
Seating areas, pergolas, fire pits, water features, and signage that turn a property into a place people actually want to spend time.
Rooftop gardens and vertical plant systems designed for the realities of commercial buildings — load, drainage, and long-term maintenance.
Refreshing aging landscapes with new layouts, healthier plantings, and materials that bring tired properties back to life.
Clearing, excavation, and precision grading that set the foundation for a landscape that drains right and lasts.
Transplanting trees and providing the pruning and structural support they need to keep growing in the right place.
We meet you on the property, listen to what you want, and look at what's actually possible given the site, the soil, and your budget.
Our in-house design team drafts plans you can actually picture — with materials, plantings, and a real number attached. We refine until it's right.
The same company that designed it builds it. Our crew installs hardscape, plantings, lighting, and amenities to match the plan exactly.
When the build is done, our maintenance team is already familiar with the property. The transition is seamless if you want us to keep caring for it.

Homeowners: Full yard transformations, outdoor living spaces, estate-level plantings, pools and surroundings. If your project is bigger than a weekend job, this is the service.
Commercial Properties: Corporate campuses, retail centers, institutional grounds that need a unified design and construction approach.
