Capillo's Landscaping runs on repeat customers — reviewers describe using Guy Capillo's crew for years running, season after season, for the unglamorous stuff: spring clean-ups, fall leaf removal, mowing, mulch. The Saugus company holds a BBB A+ rating and a 4.9★ average across 120 Google ratings, and its written record — 107 reviews since 2023 — backs that up almost without exception. The seasonal cleanups draw the most detail. Recent reviews describe crews spending a full day clearing yards that hadn't been touched in years — weeds, overgrown shrubs, pine needles and branches — and a fall clean-up timed around a customer's request to wait for a slow-dropping oak. In a June 2023 review, a customer described a relationship dating back to 2018: regular mowing, fence installation, mulch beds, and dead-tree removal, with Guy switching them from mulch to rock after repeated flood-zone washouts. Beyond routine maintenance, several recent reviews describe bigger installs — paver patios, retaining walls, sitting walls, and fencing, including one job that added lattice at the base of a new fence specifically to keep dogs contained. In an August 2025 review, a customer described a full yard renovation in Charlestown that other landscapers had called too difficult, finished in three days. Pricing and responsiveness come up often and favorably: quotes usually land within a few days, and several reviewers mention Guy or his team showing up on short notice during busy stretches. There's one outlier: a July 2025 review, unrelated to any hired job, describes seeing a company truck driving with trash blowing out of an uncovered load. It's a single account, apart from everything else on file, but it's real and worth knowing. Otherwise the record holds together — this is a crew homeowners keep calling back, project after project, year after year.
Guy and his crew did a wonderful job. Would recommend.
Capillo’s always does a thorough job getting my yard cleaned up and ready for the seasons. His team is professional and polite and I would not hesitate to recommend their services.
Unable to grow grass due to poor soil quality, I decided to inquire into a solution to improve the aesthetics of my yard.I hired Guy Capillo’s Landscaping company . Guy suggested several options and was able to develop a plan to access the yard due to the location. I am absolutely thrilled with the results and I plan on hiring Capillo landscaping for any further projects. Guy is honest, knowledgeable and takes much pride in the work that he does.
I needed a backyard remodel after a pool removal. I wanted a whole new look and Guy at Capillo's Landscaping came in with some ideas. I wanted a new paver patio, with a new lawn and plants. I had the pool removed and old shed dismantled and my yard looked like hell. Guy built a beautiful patio and recommended a larger size than I originally wanted. Glad we went with the larger size. The new sod was installed perfectly along with a perimeter of perennials. We are very happy with our yard transformation. Great job by Guy and his crew!! I highly recommend!
Guy and Team are great! We contacted them with hopes to getting yard done asap for our new home. Guy came out, assessed the yard, provided a reasonable quote and informed us their availability. The team came in the timeframe provided which was great and the team were beasts, jumping right in and working hard the whole time. They completed the job pretty quick and it looks amazing. Everyone was very friendly and easy to work with - will working with them more in the future.
