We strive to provide the most advanced products in the green marketplace and offer progressive services that help business and home owners make sustainable choices, all while delivering exceptional customer service.
Greenwise takes care of our lawn organically which helps the environment. They offer suggestions on how to maintain our newly seeded lawn.
I’ve had lawn services for about 12+ years. Their “expertise” was mowing. Poor communications. Never could rely on them coming at a regular time. Knew very little beyond how to start a lawnmower and push it around the lawn. Greenwise is the ultimate. They not only take care of regular maintenance, but all horticultural needs organically. And they know what they’re doing. They might more expensive, but worth it to get the lawn I’ve always wanted. Totally!
Can’t say enough good things about Brian Baillie and the entire Greenwise family. They have made my house a head turner for those walking and driving by. We partner on 4 seasonal displays a year and each installation brings me absolute joy. The flowers are just popping with color and style. I love coming home even more🩷
The Greenwise team does a fantastic job and their structure of assigning each client a specific client relationship manager ensures great customer service. Ours, Brian Baillie, is helpful, reliable, checks in with us and makes sure we are happy with our overall service. We’ve been a client for 8 years and highly recommend this company and Brian to anyone who asks about our lawn.
We wanted to convert the yard space on the side of our house to a dedicated raised bed veggie garden. We were in a bit of a rush to get it done so we could maximize as much of the growing season as possible. While we built our own beds, we did not have the time or energy to cut up all the sod, put down weed block fabric, and fully cover the space with mulch. We were worried it could take a month + to get this project done since we were last minute getting going on it, but Marcos was able to come out within a week of making the appointment and our job was completed within a week or so of us signing the contract. Marcos explained some different options and advised us what would be best for the purpose of the space. On project day, Manuel and his crew showed up bright and early and completed the project in two hours (maybe less). I can't imagine how long it would have taken us to complete this ourselves, not to mention we wouldn't have been able to move for days after probably! So thrilled with how this turned out...they even managed to even out the grade which was a huge bonus. Thanks guys!
We've used Greenwise Organic Lawn Care for two years and everything is greener. Creeping Charlies is completely gone! It was very important for our yard to be pesticide free to support our organic garden. Great customer service communication and easy billing.
I cannot recommend Greenwise highly enough. They have done wonderful work, from the massive cleanup of a seriously overgrown yard to excellent lawn and yard maintenance. They also take care of snow and ice in winter. I particularly appreciate their conscientious environmental approach and their option to use environmentally friendly tools. They also communicate frequently so that I know what they are doing and when. Greenwise has made a world of difference on my property, and comes with my most enthusiastic recommendation.
As first time home owners we had a hard time finding the right fit for a company to bring our patio dreams to life. We had company's flake on us, delay meetings last minute and everything else until Greenwise came along. From the very beginning we were treated as of our specific needs were their only project. We submitted our inquiry, heard back within 24 hours and had a schedule for someone to come give us a proper quote and talk about our vision to revamp our entire backyard. As soon as we met Christoph, we knew we were in good hands! He walked us through the entire process, helped us pick materials that were best for our needs and even suggested plants that would thrive in other areas of the yard. They worked on our front landscaping, our backyard patio, lawn irrigation, yard leveling and new sod. We were always aware of everything going on in the project each step of the way, they even came EARLIER than expected--- such a pleasant surprise! Easy payments, clear contracts amd professionalism the entire time for every single employee. I would recommend them to EVERYONE! We get compliments on our patio all the time now! THANK YOU GREENWISE + Christoph for making our new home exactly what we dreamed of (especially during a pandemic!).
Exceptional service and love that the products are environmentally friendly. Its nice to find a company invested in sustainability
Couldnt recommend Greenwise more! Great communication throughout and the crew did an excellent job on our landscaping project. Our backyard has never looked better
I was very happy with Grenwises professionalism. They came on time and put in the organic soil in my garden area and in all of my planters. They even carrried them upstairs for me and cleaned up afterwards. I will definately use them again next year!
Wonderful service, very caring, and doesn t try to push boundaries with budget. We use them every year for cleanups and throughout the year for treatments.
brian baillie greenwise lawn care first class company brian baillie first class service and crew the best very professional i would reccommed this company to all my friends
I recently had the pleasure working with Brian. He is very friendly and professional which made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. Thank you, Brian!
We have been using Greenwise going on 4 years and they never disappoint. They really listened to what we wanted, have been excellent at our landscape upkeep and their creative choices for our planters have been delightful. The fact that they are doing this amazing work in an organic fashion makes me wonder why other landscaping companies are slow to adopt less harmful ways to beautify landscapes.
Workers were amazing. High standard of work. Very thorough.
I have used Greenwise for the past three years. Their service is excellent and the communication far superior to other services I have used. I was very concerned about chemicals used and human and pet safety and Greenwise only uses those products that are not harmful to both humans and our furry friends. I highly recommend them
The greatest gift of this past winter season was Greenwise Organic Lawn Care and Landscaping. We hired them to do snow removal as we were not sure we would be able to manage it ourselves. Greenwise services were worth every penny. They consistently kept in touch about pending weather, plans for clearing snow and ice and timelines that were on point. It wasnt inexpensive, but the value for the cost was excellent. We will be hiring Greenwise again next year!
Greenwise did an excellent job helping us get the yard ready for this spring. Mulch looks fantastic!
I contacted Greenwise for a spring clean up and mulch work. After having someone out to view my property in early March I was told the scheduler would reach out to schedule my services for end of March, early April. No one emailed or called me, I then had to repeatedly contact them via email and voicemails until someone finally called me back. I was promised someone would come do all of my work the following Thursday. No one showed up nor called (wasn t a weather issue as it was 8 days of sunshine and 70 s). I called Thursday evening to ask what happened they promised my work would be done Friday morning. No one showed up or called. I called the office late afternoon on that Friday and they promised me someone would come out the following week after explaining the situation of their team promising and not following through they miraculously found a team to start my work that afternoon. A team showed up and spent about 45 minutes working on my yard and an equal time smoking cigarettes next to their truck. I was then told they would be back the following Monday to finish my work. It has been three weeks since that Friday afternoon and not a single person has reached out or responded to my calls or emails but had the capacity to bill me for a full spring clean up without doing any of the work. I would not recommend them to anyone looking to have any service done. Horrible communicators, horrible work, horrible experience.
All done timely and professionally
A great experience to work with these folks: on time, fair pricing, GREEN mission, professional.
We started using Greenwise under the founder, Marc Wise, and continued after it was acquired by another entity. While we love the design work of Greenwise, poor communication, faulty installation of downspout pipe, and repeated billing issues means we no longer recommend them.
Great communication, great service, and great results! We are three years into using Greenwise for our previously patchy, weedy lawn, and it s looking so green and lush this spring.
We just switched to Greenwise and have been very impressed with the quality of the work so far, a big step up from our previous service. This is especially noticeable in the attention to detail by the crews and the quality of communication from the office.
Great service. Have come out for the second year in a row to help us regrow and solidify our grass.
This is the first time I ve ever used a landscaping service, due to mobility issues this year. I couldn t bring myself to go with the usual ear-splitting, gas-guzzling equipment and was lucky enough to catch sight of a Greenwise truck by chance in the street. Not the cheapest service, and slower perhaps, but quiet, efficient and much gentler on the environment (all products are organic) and the eardrums. Even the leafblowers are barely audible. Marcos knows his plants and is obviously training his men well. So far I m very pleased with Greenwise s work.
Greenwise took an okay-looking yard and made it a great-looking yard. The crew worked on all of our flower beds and installed decorative pebbles in our patio area - our yards look detailed and snazzy. When the crew accidentally cut our invisible dog fence wire, the supervisor came back the next day and worked in the pouring rain until he found the cut spot to repair...such great service. Thank you, Greewise!
Greenwise was communicative and informative in the process leading up to our hardscape and landscape work. They were on time, courteous, and provided quality in terms of the work and the materials/plants. As someone who is a lawncare novice, Greenwise made me feel comfortable and confident that the selections we made would not only look great but also survive our environments with as low maintenance as possible. They specifically exceeded our expectations on our hardscape. Our back patio got a tremendous facelift in a matter of hours. Would certainly recommend!
Greenwise re-landscaped our front lawn two years ago and have continued with the annual maintenance. They always do a great job, and our client relationship manager Brian Baillie makes sure that everything is going well and that we have what we need to keep the lawn looking good.
Great job best lawn in the neighborhood!
Excellent care of my residential and commercial properties.
My lawn is now green, thick and very healthy ever since Greenwise took over its care & feeding! I couldn t be more pleased/and it s all organic ! Brian Baillie took charge of the new work and now everything looks trim and wonderful. The crew is very professional. Excellent company! Positive
Brian always answers my questions. He came and talked to me a number of times about my lawn service and he designed my new garden. Once, when I was out of town, he came and watered some plants since I could not do it. He arranged to replace a poor performing Japanese maple. I feel comfortable talking with him and I feel he knows his stuff about gardens and lawns.
Greenwise has been a great company to work with. Brian B. our account rep has been super responsive and helpful in suggesting ways to improve the overall landscape!
Our residential building has been using Greenwises services for snow removal and landscaping for many years and, under new owner Austin Hall, we have noticed a significant improvement. Better communication, constant updates and the crews are on time and do a great job. I would not hesitate to recommend Greenwise to anyone.
We finally decided to invest in new sod since our lawn was more weed and bare patch than blades of grass. It looks health and has thrived. A rainy spring has made our watering less onerous. Everyone we worked with was responsive and professional but never pushy. Very pleased! One photo is day sod was planted and the other is how it looks today.
weve been using greenwise for lawn maintenance for several years now and we are always happy with their attention to detail. weve recently had some old shrubs replaced with new one and it turned out to be a really tough job due the the rocks in the soil beneath the old shrubs. the crew...Tito, Erasto, Celestino and Jose worked their tails off! we are very pleased with the results and would recommend greenwise to anyone looking for superb gardening needs!
Very impressed. Very professional. Very responsive. Highly recommend them.
I am the President of a Homeowners Association in the City of Chicago. The Greenwise Team has done an amazing job servicing our property. We have worked with Greenwise for two years. The services used include snow removal/salting and landscape design/maintenance/clean-up. Their communication and work has been impeccable. Greenwise is very professionally run and provides excellent service relative to the price paid. I highly recommend them!
Big thanks to Greenwise for the transformation of our front lawn! They completed a full re-design of the garden including all new plantings, hardscaping, and a fully automated sprinkler system. Christoph was great to work with -- very thoughtful, creative and detail-oriented in the design. Excellent workmanship and highly responsive team throughout the project. We have since worked with Greenwise again for seasonal planter boxes and plan to do more in the future. Highly recommend.
My neighbor had shared her experience with Greenwise and I thought to give them a try. We had blue stones that were used on a previous property and given to us. I worked closely with Chris Odenthal on the install and design. I also ordered new sod which I was very pleased with as well. I am beyond pleased with the results and having gaining more useful yard space, it has become so much more enjoyable for my family. Thank you to Chris and his workability. I am very pleased with the service so much so, that I have more work and have agreed on maintenance throughout the year. Suzi
We learned of Chris Odenthal and Greenwise through a neighbor who was pleased with the work they did in his backyard. We needed a bluestone patio created to integrate with a previously installed patio in our back and side yard. From the start, Chris impressed us with his responsiveness, creativity, and talent. His solution to our design brief was elegant and natural. We couldn t be happier with the result. Based on our experience, we ve decided to undertake the Greenwise organic lawn care plan to get the rest of our yard looking as good as our new patio!
We hired Greenwise to help us with a landscape design for our yard. Chris Odenthal, the landscape designer, was very knowledgeable about plants, made great suggestions for native plants, and came up with a beautiful design for our yard. He also went out of his way to meet us at a distant tree nursery to help us pick a tree. The landscape work was well done. The plants were well-placed and watered, and the yard was cleaned up before the crew left.
Outstanding knowledge and service. Love having the same crew all the time. Very personalized. My yard has never look better. Knowing the materials will not harm my bees and butterflies is paramount to me!
Greenwise Organic Lawn Care and Landscaping design installed a beautiful Bluestone patio and landscaping for the side yard of our Logan Square home. We were referred originally to Marc, who did such a wonderful creative design to begin the project. Chris integrated into the project midstream, as well, and the project was successful completed on time and with great care. Chris attention to detail was excellent. The installation went well, any concerns or questions were addressed, and we were very happy with their work. I cant wait to see it flourish over then next several years as it matures in the cozy space. The Bluestone is gorgeous! Thank you, Greenwise, especially Marc and Chris for your excellent service.
Used Greenwise for 2 different sod projects and have been happy with both. Most recent required significant soil removal and leveling. Yard looks great and looking forward to sod taking root so we can enjoy our new space. I would highly recommend Greenwise.
Austin and the whole Greenwise team have been outstanding to work with. The team is very responsive and accommodating to our needs. The yard looks outstanding! Overall very impressed and would recommend!
We have used Greenwise for mosquito control for multiple years and are thrilled with the service and results. We have a large city backyard with multiple mosquito havens and yet we barely see them. The cedar oil is safe for our organic vegetable gardens, kids, and pets. We have no complaints!
