Chalet Landscape
Description
Chalet Landscape is a well-established company with a rich history that spans over a century. It’s a household name in the Chicagoland area, known for its exceptional design skills, deep understanding of horticulture, and unwavering commitment to quality.
The company’s roots can be traced back to 1917 when it was founded by Lawrence J. (L.J.) Thalmann Sr. as L.J. Thalmann’s Architectural Landscaping. With nothing more than a wheelbarrow, a shovel, and a dream, L.J. Thalmann Sr. started his journey. He balanced his business with his studies at Northwestern University’s American Landscape School, which he attended during the night.
In the 1940s, the company underwent a significant change. L.J. Thalmann Sr. won a bid for an old chalet that was set to be demolished for the construction of the Edens Expressway. He relocated the chalet to Wilmette, Illinois, where it served as both the company’s headquarters and his family home. Over time, customers began to refer to the business as “Chalet,” leading to a change in the company’s name.
Today, Chalet Landscape offers a wide range of services, including Design + Build, Landscape Maintenance, and Enhancement Services. Their team of award-winning landscape architects collaborates with clients to bring their dream gardens to life. They offer a unique approach to landscape maintenance, treating each landscape as a unique entity that requires a tailored series of treatments throughout the year. Their Enhancement Services are designed to meet the specific needs and budgets of their clients.
Chalet Landscape’s dedication to excellence has not gone unnoticed. The company has been recognized by the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP) with The Judges Award, the highest honor. They have also won two Gold Awards at the Illinois Landscape Contractors Association (ILCA) 2021 Awards Program for both Residential Landscape Maintenance and Residential Landscape Construction. Despite these accolades, the team at Chalet Landscape continues to strive for excellence, committed to enhancing the beauty of their clients’ landscapes and outdoor living spaces.
