ED & M Landscaping

Six boxwoods in the ground in forty minutes, three men on the job — that is what a May 2026 customer described, and it is the shape of most ED & M visits. The company works out of 428 Chestnut St in Lynn as ED&M Masonry and Landscape, and several reviewers name the owner, Eddie, directly. The everyday work is yard cleanups, hedge and shrub trimming, planting and lawn care, with snow removal once winter arrives. A July 2026 customer on a second visit had all the hedges trimmed and called the pricing fair for the time and the number of workers involved. Another July 2026 homeowner had a yard cleanup handled by Eddie and two other workers. In September 2025, a homeowner whose front yard was buried in leaves and acorns said the crew turned up within the hour and got it done fast. One account runs the other way, and it is from a winter job eight years ago. A January 2018 customer wrote that he was told $50 for the first visit and $30 for the second, was then charged $300 to clear a 100-foot driveway, found the snow plowed against the garage door, and was asked for another $100 to move it — $400 in all, and he would not recommend them. Customers writing about later jobs, in September 2025, May 2026 and July 2026, describe prices they considered reasonable. The winter side has its fans too: a December 2017 homeowner looking for snow removal said they called ED & M on the strength of reviews for its main work, masonry and landscaping, got a call back immediately and thought the estimate fair. Angi and HomeAdvisor both list 10 years of experience, free estimates, emergency service and "Se habla espanol". For a Lynn-area homeowner who needs a yard cleared, hedges cut back or shrubs planted without a long wait, this is a straightforward call — small crews, in and out. Before any snow work, settle the per-visit price in writing and agree what happens to the pile the plow leaves behind.
