Designscapes By Drislane

Designscapes By Drislane is a Danvers landscape design-and-build firm run by Chris Drislane, in business over three decades and carrying an A+ Better Business Bureau grade. Its own site describes a shift from lawn maintenance into patios, sitting walls, firepits, walkways, irrigation and creative plantings, plus a side line selling firewood, and it says it's grown mainly by word of mouth as a Massachusetts Certified Horticulturist operation. The one review on file, from 2025, isn't about landscaping construction at all — it's a firewood customer praising prompt delivery and good communication. A 2026 mention on a local design blog names Chris Drislane as who the writer would call "if I ever did actually hire someone," an informal nod rather than an account of hired work. There's no written account yet of an actual hardscape or planting project completed for a customer, so the landscape design-and-build side of the business is best judged through a portfolio review or references rather than what's on file here.
