Verified record
Boston Landscape Co. says it has served the Boston and North Shore area for over 24 years, offering landscaping, hardscaping, and commercial snow removal from a base split between Stoneham and Billerica. Beyond that self-description, there isn't much of an independent record to weigh it against: the only detailed written account found is a 2025 review, and it describes a serious problem rather than a completed job. That review said the reviewer paid a deposit and the owner never came to do the work, instead repeatedly asking for more money before showing up and not returning calls. The company's Better Business Bureau profile separately describes the same kind of complaint in more detail — a customer who paid a $4,000 deposit and says the owner refused to show up without additional payment. The BBB's own A+ letter grade is explicitly based on how the business responds to complaints and its licensing history, not on customer satisfaction, so it shouldn't be read as vouching for the quality of finished work. Google's own page shows a higher average — 3.7 stars across three ratings — than the one written account here would suggest, which means at least one of those ratings carries a more positive experience with no text attached to explain it. That's worth knowing, but it doesn't cancel out a specific, detailed complaint about a paid deposit and work that reportedly never got done. Given how thin the independently verifiable record is here relative to a self-reported 24-year history, and given the seriousness of the deposit complaint, anyone considering this company should ask for a written contract, avoid paying a large deposit up front, and check references directly before committing any money.

Paid him for a job he ran away with my money and never picked up the phone. Always insisted on getting paid before any work was completed. His go to line is I need more money or I’m not coming when he already has half your deposit. Constant treats is not showing up till you pay and when I didn’t want to pay until work was complete he just took my money
