Grapes of Wrath Landscaping

Grapes of Wrath Landscaping works out of Dedham, Massachusetts, handling landscape design and construction alongside routine lawn care and winter snow removal for homeowners in Needham, Westwood, Dover and Newton. The company's own site says it's been at it since 1996, and BBB's file — filed under a d/b/a, Thomas Wood Landscaping, Inc. — puts the tenure further back still, at 34 years. The written record is thin but mostly favorable. In a 2022 HomeAdvisor review, a customer said the crew was reliable and pleasant and called owner Tom accommodating about scheduling; a Google reviewer the same year called the company hardworking and dedicated and recommended it for lawn care, and a 2020 Angi review described it as extremely reliable and dependable. Against that, a 2021 Google review told a different story — the reviewer said the crew went unresponsive after a mowing visit and reported things moved around in the yard. Only two of the directories carrying reviews publish star averages: HomeAdvisor and Angi both show 5.0 from two reviews each, while Google shows a broader but more middling 4.3 from 15 ratings. BBB lists the business as not accredited, with insufficient information on file to issue a rating. For routine mowing, seasonal cleanups, and smaller design or snow-removal jobs around Dedham, the reviews on file lean toward reliable and easy to schedule with; given the one pointed complaint about responsiveness, it's worth confirming who's assigned to the job and how they'll follow up if something needs fixing.
