We used MAB to remove our front existing concrete walkway from the driveway to the front porch of the house including new aprons along the driveway, and design and reconfigure a new more rounded paver walkway. We also had them power wash and refill the sand and seal our existing pavered back patio.We could not have been any happier with their professional work from start to finish. Marc was so helpful as we talked options and he asked our input on what plants we might need to lose or relocate with the new design. When we met him out in the Marengo office to look at paver choices, he had already created detailed plans which contained exactly what we had imagined plus more. His design was spectacular!MAB took care of all the paperwork to submit to our HOA architectural review commission and to the city for permits. All we had to do was sign the application and turn it into our HOA. They contacted JULIE to have utilities marked. Candy was professional and kept communicating with us at every step. They surprised us with being able to start the project even sooner than they had promised. The daily workers were tireless and true artists in how they measured and remeasured and placed the pavers in a very aesthetically pleasing pattern. Many neighbors have stopped by from our community to remark on how beautiful it turned out. The HOA commission members told us they love working with MAB because of how precise and pleasing their work always is and adds a great deal to the entire community when one of their jobs has been completed. Although they aren't the cheapest around, we feel we received a very good value for the amazing finished project. You get what you pay for and this will be enjoyed and last us for our lifetime in this house.We would recommend MAB with no hesitation!Thank you Marc, Candy, Ozzie, and all the hardworking guys!

MAB Landscape Group completed our backyard patio. We could not be any happier with the end result. From the planning and designing to the completion of the project, MAB went above and beyond to create our perfect outdoor living space. The whole process was very easy and simple. They kept us informed throughout the whole project. They have great communication and customer service. The entire MAB squad was wonderful and very professional. Thank you MAB!!!

We had MAB design and install our landscaping and driveway pavers. From the design phase to the finished project, they did an amazing job. Their level of communication and professionalism is beyond industry standards. Their installation is impeccable and if there were any issues, they took feedback so well and made changes to ensure we were happy with the final product. We couldn't be happier with the job they did and highly recommend them!

We had such a wonderful experience working with everyone involved with our project. Starting with Marc, our sales rep and designer, Candy, who followed up everyday when the project began, Ozzie, our project manager, and his team of professionals. They’re attention to detail and quality was amazing. We are so pleased with our new patio. It is absolutely beautiful. Thank you to the entire team.
