J & M Landscape and Construction is a Lynn, Massachusetts contractor listed for landscape construction, hardscaping, masonry, paving, fences, and related outdoor work. Houzz shows nine projects and two reviews, with a 3.0 displayed rating. The 2024 reviews are sharply mixed. One customer praised the company’s construction and landscaping design, while another described a backyard overhaul with problems in concrete, grading, drainage, deck construction, materials, communication, and workmanship, and said attempted fixes made matters worse. The detailed negative account makes project oversight and correction terms important to clarify before booking. Ask for a written scope, materials list, drainage and grading plan, schedule, and a clear process for addressing defects. The profile may fit outdoor construction and landscape projects in the Lynn area, but the small and divided review record warrants careful reference checks and a detailed contract.
We had a very bad experience with JM Landscape, who we contracted with to do a complete overhaul of our backyard several years ago. Every part of the project had issues, many having to do with poor oversight of and communication by JM with the team actually doing the work. The concrete pour, yard grading, drainage fixes, deck construction, material choices and shoddy workmanship all were issues that were never fixed -- in fact anytime they tried to fix an issue, it just made it worse. We had never done a landscaping project before and had to learn "on the job" so to speak. Sadly, would not recommend this contractor.
JM Landscaping .good company they did good service for me on construction. They are good design on landscaping and construction. They are the best.
