Ferre Landscaping & Exterior Management is a family-owned business based in West Newton, led by Robert Ferre, who the company says has more than 25 years of hands-on landscaping experience; the Better Business Bureau lists it as an A+ accredited business. Beyond landscape design and maintenance, the company also does exterior cleaning — soft washing, pressure washing, gutter and window cleaning — across Newton, Wellesley, Brookline, and a wide swath of MetroWest towns. What stands out is how long some clients have stuck around. One reviewer said they've worked with Robert for more than 20 years on a multi-level garden that's become a family living space; another, a landscaper by trade, said Robert has passed her critical professional eye for over 20 years, including a recent job planting and irrigating ten 16-foot hemlocks for backyard privacy screening. A different customer described trying to treat a lawn fungus themselves and through other companies without success, until Ferre's team identified and treated it, fully restoring the grass. Several reviewers also describe using Ferre for both landscaping and a full exterior soft wash of their home. Every review from the past several months is five stars, with no negative account to weigh against them. For ongoing landscape maintenance, tricky lawn problems, or exterior cleaning around Newton and the western suburbs, this is a business with an unusually long list of multi-year and even multi-decade client relationships behind it.

For more than 20 years, Robert Ferre has been an exceptional guide and partner in transforming our property into a beautiful, multi-level garden sanctuary that has become a true living space for our family. His expertise goes far beyond landscape design.From the selection and placement of plantings to the thoughtful care of a maturing garden, he has guided us through every stage with an outstanding understanding of the environment, responsible decision-making, and the long-term vision required to create a landscape that only becomes more beautiful with time. His knowledge spans the full scope of the field, including organic exterior care, irrigation systems, ongoing maintenance, ancillary company recommendations, and all the considerations needed to protect both the land and our investment. Just as impressive as his expertise is the way he works—with kindness, responsiveness, patience, and genuine care for both the property and the people who live there. He has built an excellent team and there is a deep level of trust in knowing that every recommendation is made with the health and long view of the landscape in mind. After more than two decades, I could not ask for a better partner in creating and caring for our beautiful living space. It is a privilege to work with someone who shares our commitment to protecting the land, respecting the natural environment, and ensuring that what we have created together continues to thrive for years to come. I recommend Robert and his team with sincere gratitude.
I have worked with Robert and Team for over 20 years and as a teenage Landscapper I have a critical adult eye - Robert always passes my test! Including today planting and irrigating ten 16’ hemlocks to provide back yard screening from a neighbors eyesore. Plus last week Robert’s team executed our entire house Softwash Cleaning service - the windows looked better than the last window cleaning service. Roof and gutters are sparkling and no more spiders! I can always trust that Robert will take good care of us - he is the BEST!!
We have been working with Robert Ferre landscaping for over 10 years, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about him and his team! He truly goes above and beyond for us and has done so year after year. He is always available when we need him, incredibly responsive, and takes such great care of our property. Our landscaping and maintenance always look amazing, and he is constantly coming to us with great ideas and suggestions that we never would have thought of ourselves. What I appreciate most is that he genuinely cares about his work and about making our property look its absolute best. He is dependable, creative, hardworking, and someone we completely trust. After more than 10 years, we wouldn’t think of using anyone else. If you are looking for a landscaper who will treat your property like it is his own and consistently go the extra mile, I cannot recommend him and his team highly enough. Truly the best!
Robert Ferre is super easy to work with and very responsive. His expertise in landscaping and other home related services is unparalleled. His prices are reasonable for his high level of service.
We have been using Ferre for over a decade or close to it! We tried one year on our own but it was not comparable. This is the best lawn care service out there. They can do more than just lawn care, they do entire house soft wash of the house, trees, flowers, gutters and more!
