Chase Lawn Mowing is a one-person outfit run by Ben Chase out of West Roxbury, covering neighborhoods across Boston's western edge — Roslindale, Dedham, Hyde Park, Needham, Brookline, Watertown, Waltham, Brighton, Jamaica Plain, Milton and Westwood, by its own account. It says it's been doing this for 10 years, running all-electric equipment rather than gas mowers. The clearest thing in its reviews is repeat business that goes back years, not weeks: one customer hired Ben "several years ago" and calls his pricing very fair, another says he's cut their Roslindale and West Roxbury lawn for a decade, and a third has used him for over 4 years and calls him reliable and trustworthy. That kind of tenure is hard to fake. But a review posted in August 2026 tells a different story about a job from a couple of years earlier — the reviewer says the work was fast at the cost of quality, describing edges left untouched, grass growing long enough between visits to need extra mows, and a mess left behind. It's the sharpest complaint on file and worth asking about directly before booking: what a first visit covers and whether edging is included. With only a handful of Google reviews total, Chase Lawn Mowing reads like a genuinely small, one-man operation rather than a crew with volume behind it — you're hiring the person who answers the phone. If the repeat-customer track record is what draws you in, pin down expectations on edging and cleanup up front.

I hired Ben several years ago to mow my front and backyard His price is very fair I find him to be very reliable and I would highly recommend his services
Ben has been taken care of our lawn in Roslindale and West Roxbury for 10 years. He does a wonderful job. He is so reliable, clean and our lawn never looked better. Try Ben he is the best!
Ben has been cutting my grass for over 4 years. He is reliable, trustworthy and hardworking! I highly recommend him and Joe for your yard work. My Golden loves him too!
Hired this kid a couple of years ago for the season and man, was I sorry. The only positive thing I can say is that he's fast. So fast that your lawn is untouched around the edges, left long to require more mows and you'll have a mess to clean up behind him. He seems incapable of listening and will "yes" you to death while ignoring your concerns. Remember: sometimes you do get what you pay for.
