Since 2006, Green City Gardens has been beautifying Chicagoland, one yard at a time. Our enthusiasm and dedication are evident in the creativity of our designs and the quality of our work. Since every landscape in different, "cookie cutter" solutions won't do. Green City Gardens personalizes every design according to our clients' needs and desires. We won't show up and dictate what you need...we'll listen to you and give you what you want. From complete landscape design & installation to simple garden makeovers to beautiful flower pots, Green City Gardens can improve your quality of life.

"We recently hired Green City Gardens for a landscaping project and we couldn't be happier with the results! JD's knowledge about plants and design is so impressive. He took the time to listen to our vision and made excellent recommendations based on our layout, local climate, and soil conditions. JD and his team's attention to detail was also impeccable. They were incredibly thorough in every aspect of the project, from preparing the soil to ensuring proper drainage. They worked efficiently but took the time needed to get everything just right. I especially appreciated how they kept the workspace clean and organized throughout. In addition to their technical skills, their customer service was outstanding. They communicated clearly, kept us informed about progress, and were always open to our input. I felt like they truly cared about making sure we were happy with the final product—and we absolutely are! If you're looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and skilled landscaper that is in a class of their own, I highly recommend JD at Green City Gardens. He transformed our outdoor space into something beautiful, and we couldn't be happier!"

We are architects that design projects using everyday functional logic, and make sure that the design is aesthetically pleasing. After the initial on site consultation, all clients are presented with a detailed proposal that states a detailed scope of work, a fixed lump sum fee, a time frame to complete the work, an associated payment schedule based on work completion milestones. All projects include unlimited design meetings and design revisions to assure client satisfaction. We work on any size projects from complete new home design to interior remodels, kitchen remodels to master bath remodels. We offer additional architectural services such as all structural calculations and permit expediting acting as the client's agent handling all communications with the village or city. Do you have a design and just need a permit to start work? We can do this also for a reasonable lump sum fee to get your permit approved quickly. All projects completed timely and all expectations are clearly stated so there are no surprises!

"Seamlessly. Steve took care of everything and made the process painless. He was very thorough and kept us up to date on the permit process. Hire him. He won't disappoint."

Engineer structurals FAQs

You’ll want to consult a structural engineer if you’re making changes that include altering your home’s load-bearing properties. You should also hire a structural engineer if your architect, realtor, or local home inspector recommends it. You may want a structural engineer to help modify a home in an earthquake, hurricane, or flood zone, modify the locations of doors and windows, or add additional floors to a home.

You'll need to choose whether you need an architect, home inspector, or structural engineer, depending on what you need. Architects work to design the form and function of the home, including structural elements. Structural engineers focus on the home’s load-bearing and functional aspects, while home inspectors assess a home’s condition during real estate transactions, after natural disasters, or during appraisals.

During a site visit, residential structural engineers near you inspect the foundation, infrastructure, curtain wall, insulation, and building envelope. Through careful inspection and comparison to the approved building plans, the pro ensures the actual building meets the drawings provided or advises corrections. They must approve the completion of each stage, often required before the next development phase can begin.

A structural engineer makes approximately $68,000 to $147,000 per year or around $70 to $250 per hour.

Structural and mechanical engineering are both subdisciplines of civil engineering. Structural engineers specialize in loads and forces put on structures and often work in residential and commercial settings to create load-bearing structures like walls, foundations, and bridges.

Civil engineers work on infrastructure projects in both public and private settings. These include roadways, sewage systems, bridges, and tunnels. Mechanical engineers design and maintain power systems such as generators, engines, turbines, refrigeration systems, escalators, and elevators.
