When you call OrtizYardWorks, you get a real person who listens, a fair upfront price, and a crew that shows up on time and cleans up before they leave. That's the way it's been since day one — and that's the way it'll always be.

What Our Clients Say
Don't just take our word for it — hear from homeowners across Chicagoland who trust us with their properties.
"Our backyard was overgrown and neglected — OrtizYardWorks cleaned it all up, edged along the fence, and left the lawn looking lush and green. The rock border detail was a perfect finishing touch!"
Maria Gonzalez
Elmhurst, IL
"They laid fresh sod in our backyard and it came out perfect. The crew worked hard all day and left everything clean. We went from bare dirt to a beautiful lawn in just one visit!"
James & Linda Thompson
Berwyn, IL
"Our yard had terrible drainage issues — water would pool by the foundation every time it rained. OrtizYardWorks came out, trenched and installed a new drainage pipe, and now the yard stays dry even after a heavy storm. Clean work, fair price, and the crew really knew what they were doing!"
Davin Kim
Oak Park, IL
"They planted fresh flowers and laid beautiful black mulch around our Japanese maple. The whole bed looks so polished and professional. Exactly what I had in mind — they nailed it!"
Sarah Mitchell
Lombard, IL
"OrtizYardWorks completely transformed our neglected backyard. They cleared out all the overgrowth and debris, getting it ready for a full landscape install. Hardworking and professional from start to finish."
Carlos Rivera
Cicero, IL
"They installed sod, planted shrubs along the fence, and mulched the entire border — our backyard went from nothing to gorgeous. The attention to detail and clean edging is incredible. Highly recommend!"
Patricia Morales
Brookfield, IL
"We asked for a full garden bed refresh and they delivered beyond expectations. Fresh mulch, beautiful ferns and hostas, and the edging along our fence is razor-sharp. Our front yard has never looked this good!"
Tom & Elaine Russo
Melrose Park, IL
"We hired OrtizYardWorks for our commercial property and they've been outstanding. The mowing stripes on our hillside are always perfect, and the crew is reliable week after week. Professional, on-time, and great to work with."
Greenway Office Park
Downers Grove, IL
"My backyard was patchy and uneven — they came in, leveled it, and now the lawn looks like a golf course. Those stripes are real! Plus they trimmed all the shrubs and cleaned up the patio area. Worth every penny."
Anthony DeLuca
Addison, IL
"Had them come out for fertilization and weed control — my lawn went from dull and patchy to thick, deep green in just a few weeks. The crew is knowledgeable, friendly, and always takes time to answer my questions."
Karen Whitfield
Villa Park, IL
"OrtizYardWorks maintains our entire property and it shows. Fresh mulch beds, crisp edging around every tree and shrub, and a lawn that's the envy of the neighborhood. They treat our yard like it's their own."
The Henderson Family
La Grange, IL
"They trimmed all our overgrown shrubs and shaped them beautifully — the curved bed along the front of the house looks professionally designed now. The red flowers they planted add the perfect pop of color. Our curb appeal went through the roof!"
Rebecca Torres
Westchester, IL
"We had a muddy, unusable strip between our house and the neighbor's — OrtizYardWorks installed a beautiful paver walkway with river rock. It's functional, drains perfectly, and looks incredible. One of the best investments we've made in our home."
Mark & Julie Brennan
Berwyn, IL
"The brick edging they installed along our walkway and garden beds completely transformed the look of our front yard. The hydrangeas and hostas are thriving, and everything is so neatly defined. Professional, courteous, and fairly priced — I couldn't be happier."
Dorothy Newman
Riverside, IL
