Commercial Landscape Services
Apex Landscaping has maintained commercial property across Chicagoland since 1991. We are licensed and insured, our team includes ISA-Certified Arborists, and we maintain grounds at more than 90 commercial and association properties and for 60 municipalities.
The work is performed by our own crews rather than a rotating subcontractor bench. That is what makes a schedule hold through a wet June, and what makes an account answerable to one person rather than three.
Commercial property is not one buyer. An office park, a homeowners association and a village public works department each need a different scope, a different contract and a different conversation. The pages below are written for each of them rather than blended into one.
HOA Services
We are proud to offer exceptional HOA landscaping services in the greater Chicagoland area.
Municipal Services
Apex Landscaping excels in providing top-tier commercial landscaping services tailored for municipalities.
Commercial Landscaping Maintenance
A maintenance program covers mowing and turf care, bed and shrub work, spring and fall cleanups, seasonal color, irrigation activation and winterization, and the tree and plant health care that keeps a planting alive rather than merely tidy.
What separates one program from another is not the task list. It is whether frequency, scope and response times are written down. Two proposals that look far apart on price are usually quoting two different jobs.
Our commercial maintenance guide covers what a contract should specify and how to compare providers on equal terms.
Commercial Snow Management
Apex has cleared and salted Chicagoland properties since 1991. Snow is dispatched around the clock through an event, because a storm does not wait for business hours, and access and egress are a safety and liability matter before they are an appearance one.
Our crews handle plowing, walkway clearing, salting and ice management, with trigger depths and response windows set in the contract rather than left to judgment on the night.
Full detail, including what to require from the insurance any provider carries, is on our commercial snow and ice management page.
Commercial Landscape Enhancements
Enhancements are the work that changes how a property reads rather than simply maintaining it: entrance and monument plantings, seasonal color rotations, landscape lighting, and hardscape repair or replacement where surfaces have failed or lifted.
On commercial and association property these are usually budgeted separately from the maintenance contract and approved on a different cycle, so we scope and price them separately rather than folding them into a monthly figure a board cannot break down.
Where a property needs design and construction rather than an enhancement, that work is covered under landscape design and build.
HOA Landscaping and Snow Removal Services
Where Association Snow Work Differs
Community associations have needs a commercial site does not: private drives residents park on overnight, sidewalks between buildings, and entries that have to stay clear for emergency access. Apex handles that work as part of a full association program rather than as a separate winter contract. See HOA landscape and grounds management for what an association program covers, or commercial snow and ice management for how the snow program itself runs.
