About River Forest
Why River Forest Homeowners Choose Us
Dufour Services provides premium landscaping and drainage solutions to homeowners in River Forest (60153, 60160, 60305). As a local company serving Cook County, we understand the unique landscaping challenges of the area.
Historic community with architecturally significant homes requiring thoughtful landscape designs that complement their classic aesthetic.
River Forest has one of the richest architectural pedigrees in the country — Frank Lloyd Wright designed more homes here than in almost any other village, and the community treats that historic character seriously. Parkway trees, deep front setbacks, and mature gardens define the streetscape.
Older homes here sit on older infrastructure, and the Des Plaines River on the village's west edge shapes the water table. Drainage and foundation work in River Forest needs a careful touch: big equipment and historic gardens don't mix.
Our Services in River Forest
Landscape Design
Design in River Forest is stewardship — complementing Wright-era architecture with appropriate plantings and materials, and working within the village's expectations for parkway and front-yard character.
Paver Patios
Clay and brick pavers suit River Forest's historic homes far better than stamped concrete. We build patios and walks in period-appropriate materials that look like they've always been there.
Drywell Installation
With older combined-sewer-era infrastructure and a high water table near the river, getting roof water into on-site dry wells relieves both the foundation and the village system — a fix that's invisible once the lawn is restored.

Oak Park, Forest Park and surrounding communities.
