About Riverside
Why Riverside Homeowners Choose Us
Dufour Services provides premium landscaping and drainage solutions to homeowners in Riverside (60546). As a local company serving Cook County, we understand the unique landscaping challenges of the area.
Historic planned community with unique winding streets and architecturally significant homes that require thoughtful landscape design and specialized drainage solutions to preserve their character and protect their foundations.
Riverside is a National Historic Landmark — designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in 1869, its curving streets, generous parkways, and gas-lit intersections are the original vision of suburbia. The village actively protects that character, which shapes everything we build here.
The Des Plaines River wraps around Riverside, and low-lying streets near the river have real flood exposure. Olmsted's parkway system also means much of what looks like a front yard is village parkway — plantings and hardscape there follow village guidelines we design around.
Our Services in Riverside
Landscape Design
Designing in Riverside means working within an Olmsted landscape — naturalistic plant palettes, respect for the parkway system, and layouts that honor the curvilinear plan rather than imposing a suburban grid on it.
Drainage Solutions
Between the river's flood plain and 19th-century infrastructure, Riverside drainage work demands careful engineering: on-site infiltration, gentle regrading, and solutions that protect historic trees and parkways.
Paver Walkways
Riverside's winding streets call for walkways in traditional clay brick that complement the village's 19th-century character — laid on modern bases so they stay level under mature parkway trees.
Also Serving
Brookfield, Berwyn, LaGrange and surrounding communities.
