C&C Landscaping Maintenance LLC

The same beat keeps repeating in C&C Landscaping's recent Google reviews: cleanup, and consistency. This is a North Andover outfit built around the seasonal rhythm of a New England yard — weekly mowing through the summer, spring and fall cleanups at the shoulders, and plowing when the snow comes. The company describes itself as locally owned and run by owner J.R., with Stephanie handling bookkeeping, invoicing and scheduling behind him. Alongside mowing and cleanups it lists planting and landscape design, hardscaping, pressure washing, driveway sealcoating and landscape lighting, for homes and commercial properties alike. Its stated service area is North Andover, Andover, North Reading, Methuen and Salem, New Hampshire. The customer history is steady rather than voluminous: 4.9 across 30 Google ratings, and 5.0 across seven on Houzz. A May 2026 reviewer credited JR and his crew with efficient, attentive fall and spring cleanups and said the work was done to their satisfaction. An April 2026 reviewer, several years into the relationship, pointed to crews arriving when scheduled and quick answers in between. Show up, keep it tidy, pick up the phone — that, more than any showpiece project, is what people are actually describing. There is some paper behind the sales pages. BBB grades the company A+, though it is not BBB accredited, and the North Andover Chamber of Commerce lists it as a member. Houzz shows an ICPI Installer award — the interlocking-paver trade credential — which is the one hint that the hardscape side is more than a line item on the services page. One thing to sort out before you call: the sources do not agree on how long they have been at it. The website says the company was founded in 2015. BBB's file records a business start of October 2012 and 13 years in business. Houzz carries a self-described 2011 founding by J.R. Costa. Any of those makes them established, but ask which is right if longevity matters to you. BBB also lists the LLC with a single employee, which sits oddly next to a company that talks in terms of crews, so it is fair to ask who actually turns up at your property and how many of them. And because Massachusetts does not require home improvement contractor registration for landscaping-only work, there is no state registry entry to check here — if you are hiring them for a patio or a walkway rather than mowing, ask about insurance and get the scope in writing. For a homeowner who wants a yard kept on schedule year-round by the same familiar crew, and who might later want a paver walk built by people who already know the property, this is a reasonable call.
