For residents and businesses across Illinois, the term "general contractor" often brings to mind large-scale home remodeling, but Anne Roberts Gardens in Chicago redefines the role with a highly specialized focus: being the premier design-build general contractor for the entire outdoor living space. Located right in the heart of the Chicagoland area, this award-winning company operates as a fusion of a landscape architect and a licensed contractor, providing seamless project management from the initial concept design to the final construction and installation.

Founded in 2002, Anne Roberts Gardens has grown to become one of Chicago's most successful and decorated landscape and construction firms.

The firm's expertise is evident in the positive outcomes experienced by their local clients. One reviewer highlighted the deep horticultural knowledge and construction integrity, noting, "She moved and reused shrubs and trees and relocated them to cut costs. Others wanted to remove a dogwood tree saying it was dead! Anne said no its not and it has been healthy and blooming ever since! It’s been years and all the plants and trees are doing remarkably well! Highly recommend, you won’t be sorry!" This testimonial speaks directly to the value of hiring a contractor with profound plant knowledge and a commitment to sustainable, lasting results.
