Villa park Library

The spark of inspiration came from a generous donation by a local artist to the Villa Park Library—a statue initially placed in a less-than-ideal location. In response, we conceived a patio and contributed a sensory garden, reshaping the area into a sanctuary for young minds to immerse themselves in the sensory experiences of sounds, scents, and captivating sights while indulging in their passion for books.

TESTIMONIALS

Michele Vaccaro

"The Bolder team just finished a huge job for us to fix drainage issues we have struggled with for years. When I heard swale I thought it would be awful looking but I could not have been more wrong!

They took such great care of our property during construction and the end result is beautiful! Joel visited twice to go over the specifications and made sure they delivered exactly what we wanted...

After seeing what a great job Bolder does we can't wait to have them back to design a decorative garden for our patio next spring!"

Mike Desmond

Joel Torres (owner) did a fantastic job on correcting some issues we had from previous landscaper. He came out and gave us an estimate at no cost. His ideas and recommendations were spot on for our project. His team was very professional and cleaned up after the project was completed. We highly recommend Bolder Lawns.

Bradley Sadowski

"We contacted Bolder Lawns after discovering a huge drainage issue at a house we just purchased... He immediately knew what do to, increasing the grade in certain areas of the lawn but also providing a “place” for the water to go...

The final product was exactly as promised! Even in the heaviest storms, water runs to the designated locations in river rock and 'disappears.' The sidewalk no longer floods either...

Overall, I recommend Bolder Lawns... Joel had a lot of ideas and suggestions to help us personalize the landscaping. He is truly passionate about what he does and seeks to bring beauty into every environment he creates."

We have a huge yard but we had a huge water issue. We were never able to use our backyard because it was always like a swamp. Our garage was always flooding too. Joel was able to install a draining system on both ends of our yard and grade our yard to fix the problem. Our grass is coming in nicely and with the rain last week we had no issues. They were super quick, honest and knowledgeable! We will be having them back to do a few other projects on our list. I know this doesn’t look like much now but once it all grows in we will finally have our nice yard back. This was a really big job as you can see and they finished in about two days.
