Your Geneva Property Deserves Better
Geneva homeowners invest in their properties. You paid for the house, the lot, and the neighborhood. The yard is a different story. If the outside is not keeping up with the rest of the property, you are not alone.
Does any of this sound familiar?
You have a beautiful older home near downtown, but the beds are overgrown, the patio pavers are heaving, and it is starting to look neglected.
The mature oaks and elms in your yard need real attention. One limb came down last storm and you are not sure what else is ready to go.
Your lawn is thin and patchy near the Fox River side of the lot, and nothing you have tried fixes it for more than a season.
You bought a newer build off Kautz Road. The builder sod looked fine at closing. Three years later it is half crabgrass and bare spots.
Your patio was installed by the previous owner and the base is shot. Every spring the joints heave a little more.
Your neighbors put real money into their yards this year and yours is the one pulling the block down.

What We Do for Geneva Homeowners
We handle full-property work for Geneva homeowners across all seasons. That covers landscape design, lawn care, tree service, paver patios and hardscaping, snow removal, and concrete. Here is what each service covers.
Stamped Concrete
Concrete on a Geneva property has to hold up against road salt, freeze-thaw cycles, and tree roots that push from below. We pour driveways, walkways, and stamped concrete patios built for northern Illinois winters, not poured to a price and hoped for.
Our concrete work covers:
- Concrete driveways and aprons
- Stamped concrete patios and walkways
- Steps, stoops, and landings
- Decorative concrete (stamped, exposed aggregate, color)
- Concrete repair and resurfacing

Landscape Design
Geneva properties come with character, and a good design plan respects that. Whether you have an older home near Third Street or a newer build off Kautz Road, we start on paper before anything goes in the ground. That matters here because the soil near the Fox River holds moisture longer than most, and the wrong plant in the wrong spot will not make it through a wet spring.
Our landscape design and install work covers:
- Full property design and planting plans
- Plant and tree selection for northern Illinois soil
- Garden bed installation, mulching, and edging
- Sod installation and lawn renovation
- Grading, drainage corrections, and French drains
- Landscape lighting on LED fixtures
- Retaining walls and slope work

Hardscaping
Geneva homeowners put money into their outdoor spaces, and a paver patio is one of the best returns on that investment when it is done right. Proper base depth and edge restraints are what separate a patio that holds up for twenty years from one that heaves by the third spring. We base, sand, and seal every install to handle Kane County freeze-thaw winters.
Our hardscape work includes:
- Custom paver patios in any size or layout
- Stone walkways and front entries
- Retaining walls and seat walls
- Fire pit areas and outdoor kitchens
- Pergolas and seating zones
- Water features
- Paver repair and re-leveling on settled patios

Lawn Care Service
A healthy Geneva lawn takes more than a mower. Properties east of the river near the historic district tend to sit on heavier clay that compacts hard after a wet spring. Newer builds west of Randall Road often have thin topsoil over compacted construction fill. Our lawn programs start with what is actually under your grass, not a one-size schedule.
Our lawn care work includes:
- Weekly or biweekly mowing and trimming
- Fertilization on a northern Illinois schedule
- Weed and crabgrass control
- Core aeration to break up compacted soil
- Overseeding and lawn renovation
- Spring and fall cleanup
- Leaf removal
- Shrub and hedge trimming
Our Lawn Care Service >
Tree Service
Geneva carries some of the most established tree canopy in Kane County. The older neighborhoods near Mill Race Park and downtown have mature oaks, elms, and maples that need real care, not just a chainsaw and a hauling fee. Storm-damaged limbs, dead wood near a roofline, and trees pushing against a foundation are not things to put off.
Our tree work covers:
- Removal of dead and storm-damaged trees
- Limb pruning and crown shaping
- Stump grinding
- Storm cleanup
- Clearing trees ahead of patio or driveway work
Our Tree Care Service >
Snow Removal Service
Geneva winters do not ease up. A Kane County snow event can drop six inches overnight, and another four by morning. We run residential snow contracts so you have a cleared driveway before you need to leave, not a shovel job waiting when you walk out the door. Contracts lock in your spot before the season fills in August and September.
Our snow removal includes:
- Driveway plowing
- Walkway, step, and porch clearing
- De-icing on driveways and walks
- Sidewalk clearing on per-storm or seasonal terms

Why Geneva Homeowners Call Arellano Landscaping
We have been working in Geneva since the early years of the company. Arellano Landscaping started in St. Charles in 2012, and Geneva was in our service area from the beginning. We know the properties near downtown, the drainage challenges along the Fox River, and the older lot layouts in the historic neighborhoods that make a templated landscaping plan a bad fit.
Jordan Arellano handles every estimate himself. When you call, you are talking to the owner. He walks the yard, checks the soil and grade, looks at the trees, and hands you a written quote with line-item pricing before anyone picks up a shovel. No vague numbers, no surprises when the final bill arrives.
Our shop is in St. Charles, a few miles north along the Fox River. That matters for Geneva customers because we are not treating your job as a haul from the city. We are in the area daily, response times are short, and if something needs a second visit, we are around the corner.
We cover the whole property across every season. Design, planting, lawn care, paver patios, tree work, concrete, and snow removal all run through one crew and one phone number. One point of contact, one bill, and no hunting for a new contractor every time a different season rolls around.

Frequently Asked Questions About Landscaping in Geneva, IL
It depends on the scope. A lawn care program runs very differently than a full landscape design or a 500-square-foot paver patio. Smaller cleanup and refresh projects in Geneva often start in the low four figures. Full design, install, or hardscape jobs run higher based on plant selection, materials, and site conditions. Every estimate is free and written, so you see the real number before you decide. Call (630) 402-7001 to schedule a visit.
Spring is the busiest stretch in the Fox Valley. March through May fills up fast for plantings, sod installs, and lawn program starts. Fall is the underrated window: cooler temps let new plants root faster, hardscape work runs through late October, and it is easier to get on the schedule. Snow contracts close in August and September, so call early if you need winter service.
Yes. We have worked on older properties in the Geneva historic district, near Third Street, and along the Fox River corridor. Older lots often have different soil conditions, established root systems, and layout constraints that require more planning than a standard new-build install. We factor those in before anything gets started.
Yes. Properties near the Fox River and Mill Race Creek often carry extra moisture and have grading issues that create standing water and turf damage. We install French drains, regrade low spots, and plan plantings around wet areas so the yard holds up through a heavy spring rather than turning into a swamp.
Yes. Every estimate is free and written, with no obligation. Jordan handles the visit himself, walks your property, and gives you a line-item quote. You see what the work costs before you make any decision. Call (630) 402-7001 to get on the schedule.
