Camelo Bros Landscaping

Camelo Bros Landscaping is a Marblehead outfit with almost no public paper trail — one Houzz page, filed under the shorter name Camelo Landscaping, and not a single review on it. What that page does say is that the company works Marblehead and describes itself simply as a landscape contractor serving the town. The service list it publishes is long for a one-town operation: mowing, aeration, weed control, hedge trimming and brush clearing on the maintenance side, then planting and garden design, tree planting and removal, and a hard-surface run of brick masonry, concrete repair, wood fence installation and deck building. That spread is the thing worth asking about. Lawn care and a stone wall are different crews and different skills, and nothing published so far shows which end of that list the company actually spends its weeks on. Ask what they self-perform versus subcontract, and ask for addresses of finished masonry or fence work in town if that is the job you have. No one has written publicly about hiring them, so there is nothing to weigh yet — good or bad. If you are considering them, references from Marblehead neighbors will tell you more than anything online currently does. Massachusetts does not require home improvement contractor registration for landscaping-only or fencing-only work, but the masonry, concrete and deck work on their list falls outside that exemption, so ask about registration and insurance if you are hiring them for hardscape.
