Verified record
A. Merida Landscaping is a Lynn hardscape and grading company run by Anibal Merida, with a written history of Thumbtack reviews from 2017 to 2019 that are uniformly positive about specific project work. In 2017 and 2019 reviews, customers described a range of hardscape jobs: ripping out and rebuilding a retaining wall with new pea stone in two days, regrading a yard after 150 feet of drainage pipe was installed, cleaning up and reseeding a strip after a retaining wall project, and removing old concrete. One 2019 review described Anibal recommending stone and a small retaining wall for a project and completing the paving work quickly at a reasonable price. Reviewers across these accounts repeatedly describe the work as fast, professional, and reasonably priced. Separately, the company's Better Business Bureau listing describes a serious, unresolved complaint: a customer who says payment was taken but the job was left unfinished. The BBB's A+ letter grade for this business explicitly does not factor in customer reviews or complaints, so it shouldn't be read as reflecting that account. Given the written reviews here are several years old and there is an unresolved complaint about payment taken for unfinished work, it's worth getting a clear written contract with milestones and payment tied to completed work before hiring for a larger project.

Removed concrete in my backyard. Excellent service from a local company. His team was on time and very professional. I will definitely use him again for future landscaping projects.
Mr. Merida is a true professional and expert... Anibel came to look at the project and immediately had a great recommendation of doing some stone with a little retaining wall as well as paving the area... Price was very reasonable and he got the job done fast, wicked fast! Will definitely hire A.Merida again!
Anibal came over gave us a price of 3,000 to rip wall out. Fix remaining wall and add new section. Got rid of two huge railroad ties that had rot. Replaced all peas tone and put weed paper down... He was pleasant professional. And in and out in 2 days. It looks like my yard has always looked like this. I would for sure hire him again.
They did a great job cleaning up a mess of dirt and rocks along our sidewalk strip that was left behind after a retaining wall project. They also spread new loam, raked even, and spread grass seed. Very happy with the end result and reasonable price for the job. Would hire again.
A. Merida regraded a side yard area after we had 150 feet of pvc pipe installed underground to move downspout water away from the buildings. He did an excellent job grading. His price was competitive. He is one of the most conscientious workers we have seen in a long time.
