Dardah Landscaping, Inc.

Dardah Landscaping built its name on hardscaping — patios, walkways, retaining walls, and masonry repair — for homeowners across Framingham and the MetroWest towns nearby. The same names keep showing up in the reviews: Jose, and often his brother Rafael, doing the actual work. The company describes itself as locally owned and operated, and Angi lists 14 years of self-reported experience running the crew. The pattern across more than 30 reviews on Google and Angi, going back to 2020, is remarkably consistent: fast responses, fair quotes, and finished patios and walkways that customers say still look good years later. One Natick homeowner had Dardah repair a brick patio and walkway in 2021, then hired the crew again in 2024 for further work after being pleased with how it held up three years on. Others describe retaining wall rebuilds, driveway repair and sealcoating, and bluestone patio installations, with several reviewers specifically praising Jose's attention to detail and willingness to work within a stated budget. The company holds an active Massachusetts home improvement contractor registration — a genuine credential, not just a directory listing. Before booking, it's worth knowing about one October 2021 review that described a quick initial response but poor follow-up and communication once the job was underway — an outlier against an otherwise steady run of five-star accounts, but worth asking how the crew keeps clients posted mid-project. Nothing else in the reviews raises a similar concern. Dardah is the call for a hardscape or masonry project — a new patio, a failing retaining wall, walkway repair, or driveway work — rather than routine lawn care, and its reviews back up jobs from about $800 to $11,000 on Angi. Given the volume and consistency of the praise, confirm the project scope and timeline up front, and ask how they'll keep you posted once the crew is on site.
