Customer Testimonial

"Dear Keith,

Thank you so much for the beautiful walkway. We are very happy with the work. The stairs are easy to navigate and the brick landings are so beautiful that is looks like a picture from a gardening book of design.

Thank you also for giving the project drainage under the walk, the entire project from design through installation reflects Lester's commitment to excellence in both materials and craftsmanship.

We are very pleased with all aspects of the project and it has added real value to our home and neighborhood. Thank you so much. We love the attention to detail and workmanship."

Joe and Karen Patrick

Pioneer Press Article August 12, 2010 By ANGELA D. SYKORA

Brother and sister Bill Lester and Lori Lester-Zwilling, owners of Lester's Material Service, walk through the yard of their material service company in Grayslake. (Rob Dicker/Staff Photographer) Read the Full Article

It's not the War of the Roses, but two Grayslake-based landscaping businesses who share the same name want customers to know it's not all in the family. Lester's Material Service, Inc., a landscape supplier located at 1980 S. Route 83, was founded in 1960 by Ron and Connie Lester, proprietors of Lester's Bison Farm. Three of their children -- Steve Lester, Bill Lester and Lori Lester-Zwilling -- now run the business known to be Lake County's oldest and largest hardscape dealer and installer. The Lester family is concerned that another business, Lester's Nursery, Landscaping and Construction Co., Inc., is setting up shop in Grayslake after relocating from Hawthorn Woods earlier this year. "We've always been known as the Lester's," said Lori Lester-Zilling. "We want to make sure our customers know who they are calling. Our concern is that a couple customers had work done by them (Lester's Nursery and Landscaping) only to find out after that we didn't do the work."
