What makes Germantown Hills yards different
Germantown Hills was mostly farmland until the 1950s and has grown into a commuter village for families working in Peoria. A lot of homes here are on generous lots, and many owners are juggling long commutes, kids’ schedules and a yard that’s bigger than they have weekends for.
That’s why so many calls here are about taking yard work off someone’s plate: a weekly mowing route, spring and fall cleanups, and landscaping that looks good without needing constant attention. Newer homes also come with the usual builder-yard problems: compacted soil, thin lawns and water that sits where it shouldn’t.

Good to know
Woodford County, not Peoria
Germantown Hills is in Woodford County and runs its own village services, so City of Peoria yard waste and stormwater rules don’t apply. Check yard waste and permit rules with the village or your HOA before a big project. We’ll ask about it when we price the job.
Before any digging, utilities get marked through JULIE (811).
