Multi-tone brick paver patio with block retaining wall and landscaped backyard in Palatine, IL

Complete Outdoor Design & Installation in Palatine, IL

When your project involves more than one piece, it pays to plan it all together. BJ's Lawn Service combines brick paving, retaining walls, planting, trees, and seasonal color into a single, cohesive landscape installation designed around your property, your style, and your budget.

Instead of coordinating separate contractors, you work with one local team from the first layout through final cleanup. We make sure patios, walls, beds, and plantings fit together, drain properly, and are built in the right order so the finished landscape looks and works like one complete design.

What a Complete Design Can Include

Brick Paving

Paver patios, walkways, and borders that create usable outdoor living space.

Retaining & Seating Walls

Walls that manage slopes, frame patios, and add structure to the landscape.

Trees, Shrubs & Evergreens

Plantings that add shade, privacy, screening, and year-round structure.

Seasonal Color

Annual and perennial beds that bring color and variety to high-visibility areas.

Our Complete Design Process

1

Consultation & Site Review

We walk the property with you to talk through goals, style, and budget, and review grades, drainage, sun exposure, and existing features.

  • Project goals and priorities
  • Site conditions and measurements
  • Budget and phasing options
2

Design & Layout

We plan where each element goes so hardscapes, walls, beds, and trees work together as one landscape. Contact JULIE to have underground utilities marked, finalize the contract, and apply for any required permits.

  • Hardscape and planting bed placement
  • Material and plant selection
  • Installation schedule and sequencing
3

Hardscape Installation

We build the structural pieces first, including grading, base preparation, patios, walkways, and walls, so plantings go into finished, properly graded areas.

  • Excavation, grading, and base preparation
  • Paver and wall installation
  • Drainage and edge restraint
4

Planting & Finishing

With the hardscape in place, we install trees, shrubs, evergreens, and flowers, then finish the beds and clean up so your new landscape is ready to enjoy.

  • Tree, shrub, and flower installation
  • Mulch, topsoil, and final grading
  • Cleanup and project walkthrough
