The Premium Experience of Guided Plant Selection: Crafting Your Custom Landscape

When you decide to invest in a custom outdoor living space, you expect the final product to flawlessly match your exact vision. At Fox Landscape, we do not just consider ourselves standard landscapers; we are business professionals who execute high-end landscaping.

We proudly serve the western suburbs of Chicago, bringing a client-focused mentality to every single Design Build Enhancement (DBE) we undertake. This means we deliver a level of service, attention to detail, and intention that standard contractors simply cannot match.

While our premium paver patios and natural stone retaining walls form the robust structural foundation of your new yard, it is the living softscapes that truly bring the design to life. One of the most distinctive ways we guarantee your complete satisfaction with those living elements is through our highly personalized, guided plant-selection process.

The Problem With Standard Landscaping

Typically, the standard landscape installation process is fairly rigid. A contractor designs a landscape, orders the specified plants from a bulk supplier, and shows up on installation day to put them in the ground.

For the homeowner, this means you often do not see the materials until they are already planted in your yard. But a landscape is a living, breathing investment. Seeing a specific tree, shrub, or seasonal flower on paper or in a digital rendering is entirely different from seeing its true size, shape, and vibrant color in person.

The Fox Landscape Difference

At Fox Landscape, our "no-ego," positive, and highly approachable team believes in building lasting relationships and partnerships, not just finishing jobs and moving on. We want you to be completely comfortable and deeply involved in creating your property's new aesthetic.

We cater to clients with a specific, luxurious vision and who want exceptional, "over-the-top" results. Because of this, we refuse to leave your softscape materials to chance or guesswork.

Step-by-Step: Our Efficient Design Process

Our premium design-build process is built on extreme efficiency, decades of expertise, and business-first communication. It begins with an on-site design consultation where we meet to thoroughly understand your functional landscape renovation goals, aesthetic desires, and project budget.

Within seven days of our initial meeting, we will deliver a master design and a firm proposal directly to your inbox. We intentionally present you with an initial design and a firm price first, ensuring that we are perfectly aligned with your budget before we present further iterations or alternatives.

The Nursery Visit: Hand-Selecting Your Softscapes

Once you approve the master design and provide a down payment, the real fun begins. We do not just send a blind order to a local supplier — we invite you to join us for a premium, hands-on experience. We take you directly to a local nursery so you can personally hand-select the exact plant materials for your home.

Walking through the nursery with our ownership team, you get to view, select, and physically tag the exact ornamental trees, evergreen shrubs, and vibrant perennials that will soon be planted in your yard. This guided plant selection is a unique, high-end offering that very few landscape contractors offer.

Why do we take the time to do this? Because it gives you complete buy-in and total peace of mind before our crews ever put a shovel in the dirt.

It guarantees that the living elements of your landscape perfectly complement the hard lines of your new outdoor living spaces, and it ensures you get exactly the softscape materials you envisioned.

A Seamless "Point of Singularity" Installation

After you have tagged your ideal plants, our professional team takes over. We operate using a strict "point of singularity" build model. This means that once our uniformed crews arrive at your property to begin your custom landscape installation, we do not bounce around between multiple jobs. Weather permitting, our dedicated team remains on-site on consecutive days until your high-end project is 100% complete.

Because we operate with the agility of a smaller company but the capabilities of a large firm, we typically schedule these complex projects within a short timeframe, avoiding the frustrating delays common in the industry.

Furthermore, we employ a highly experienced team. We experience very little turnover, meaning the professional crews arriving in our clean, well-logoed trucks are seasoned experts. We believe our most important customers are our employees, so we pay them above the industry average to ensure they deliver above-average, luxurious results to you.
