D Zacarias Landscape & Masonry

D Zacarias Landscape & Masonry is a Lynn, Massachusetts landscape and masonry outfit rated 4.9 from 34 ratings on both Angi and HomeAdvisor, and in review after review the customers name the same person: Diego. Most of the work described is hardscape. An April 2022 customer had a 1,200 square foot patio area rebuilt — paver patio, pea gravel patio, sod, cobblestones and a new privacy fence — then hired the crew back to spread twenty yards of mulch, and said he came when he said he would. A May 2021 customer had a walkway and a veneer designed for the front of the house and said the job exceeded their expectations. Others describe walkways, a wall built after debris was cleared and soil replaced, and, in a February 2024 review, a driveway fixed and replaced. The seasonal work draws the same praise. A November 2020 customer had leaves cleared and dead wood trimmed across three properties in a single day and said they would hire every year from then on; a September 2020 customer got a quote and had the crew on site the next morning, spending three hours cutting back very overgrown plants and trees and raking out the debris. Two threads run through nearly all of it: pace and keeping to the plan. A June 2022 customer said the pavers and sod were delivered ahead of schedule, a November 2021 customer said the crew showed up the very next day, and the May 2021 customer noted that a start date promised the previous November was met. What's worth asking about is price. A March 2024 customer, happy with the landscaping, still wrote that "prices is little bit high", and an August 2023 customer summed the job up as "not perfect but excellent value" with a professional, knowledgeable crew — and referred the company on anyway. Customers in 2020 and 2021 called the pricing fair, so get the scope and the number in writing before work starts. Fencing shows up inside larger yard projects rather than as a standalone trade — a privacy fence within that 2022 patio renovation, and a 2024 customer planning to come back for one — so if a fence is your whole job, ask how it fits their schedule. The written accounts run from 2020 to March 2024. Ask for recent local references and a written scope before booking.
