Alvarez Landscaping is a family operation in Everett run by Yimi Baquedano — called Jimmy in several reviews — together with his wife and daughters, offering lawn care, garden design, hardscaping, tree and shrub work, seasonal cleanups, and snow plowing. The company's own site describes Yimi's background working for a relative's landscaping company before striking out on his own, building on a family agricultural background from Honduras; the Better Business Bureau separately lists the corporation as formed in October 2023 and gives it an A rating, though it isn't BBB-accredited. What comes through across 33 reviews running from late 2023 into 2026 is speed and reliability on jobs big and small. Several reviewers describe calling on short notice and getting squeezed into the schedule within days — one 2024 review described three 20-foot dead evergreens, roots and all, cleared and hauled off within two hours of Yimi's crew arriving. Multi-year relationships come up again and again: one customer, in an early-2024 review, described more than a year of steady lawn care; another, in a late-2023 review, described "the last couple of years"; and a 2024 review from a longtime client credited Yimi with handling landscaping, stonework, and snow removal for several years running. The bulk of the work is classic landscaping — spring and fall cleanups, mulching, weeding, tree and shrub trimming, lawn care through the seasons — but hardscape jobs show up too: a backyard paver patio in 2025, another paver patio installation in spring 2024, a crumbling basement brick wall repaired in winter 2024, and a driveway extension and turning pad built for a general contractor's client in early 2024. Pricing gets called fair or competitive often enough that it reads as a consistent trait rather than a one-off, and reviewers repeatedly describe Yimi personally as unhurried, communicative, and attentive even on smaller requests. There isn't a negative account anywhere in the 33 reviews on file, and the most recent one, from April 2026, describes the same pattern as the rest — fast response, squeezed into a tight schedule, and a yard that "looks amazing" afterward. For everyday lawn care and cleanups in the Everett-to-Boston area, with the option of hardscape work when it comes up, this is a small, hands-on family business with an unusually consistent multi-year record behind it.
I hired them for a spring clean up, bush removal and mulching. I called them with short notice, they were fast at getting back to us. He was able to squeeze us into their schedule by the end of the week. My back and front yard look amazing!
Alvarez Landscaping did a great job with both a spring clean up and mulching and then a fall clean up and gutters. Yard looked great when they were done and I will definitely be using their services again.
They were amazing. We have had a lot of experience with contractors and home improvement services-and Jimmy made it quick, easy, and did super professional work. He answered all our questions along the way (even the neurotic ones) and was super understanding and came up with a solution when he found a mistake with our former patio, that wasn’t crazy expensive. Easy to work with and FAST! He took care of our small patio like it was his own. Thank you, Jimmy and crew!
Great service, friendly, and did a fantastic job! Had pavers done in my backyard and it completely changed the space for a very fair price. Highly recommended!
I was uncertain what to expect, but wow, I had an amazing first job done by Jimmy and his crew. It was a short notice request to remove three 20-ft dead Evergreens from my yard, and some overgrown bush clearing. Two hours later, it was cleared (roots and all), removed off premises, and they cleaned up everything. Highly recommended!
