Indresano Landscaping

Indresano Landscaping is a long-running Wellesley-area landscape contractor — BBB traces the corporation back to 1968 — whose reviews for years describe a hands-on owner, referred to as Pete and Virgil Indresano, personally showing up to quote jobs and oversee his crew. Through 2011 to 2015, the pattern across dozens of Angi, HomeAdvisor, and BBB-linked reviews is remarkably consistent: the owner is described as showing up in person, responsive, professional, and a perfectionist who checked in on his crew's progress. Jobs ranged from full landscape makeovers with irrigation and seeding to weekly lawn maintenance and snow removal, with one reviewer even bringing him to an out-of-state summer home for the quality of his work. A Houzz Award and two Houzz badges back a design portfolio that spans hardscaping, patios, pool landscaping, fire pits, and water features. That detailed written record goes quiet after 2015, aside from one exception: a July 2025 Google review that simply advises "seek landscaping services elsewhere," with no detail about what happened. A 2015 review also describes a job that started late and deviated from the agreed plan without consulting the landscape architect, along with electrical and communication problems, though the finished landscape was still described as looking good. Separately, Houzz lists the business as Indresano Corp. in Ashland with 29 years in business, while BBB traces the Wellesley-area corporation to 1968 — the two accounts of the company's age and location don't fully agree. For a full landscape design or hardscaping project, the decade-plus record of hands-on, well-reviewed work is substantial, even if dated; a recent, unexplained complaint is worth asking about directly before signing anything.
