Call J. Martin Landscaping in East Hartford and the person who answers is usually Jose. A customer this October said they spoke with Jose, the owner, about lawn pricing, and he came out the next day to clear the leaves and mow the grass. A recent customer said Jose came out the same day, gave a quote and did a fall cleanup of a large yard full of overgrowth, pine needles and leaves. A recent customer said Jose cut down old bushes, raked up debris and mowed the lawn the day after the call, then hired him for regular maintenance. The work runs past mowing. In a 2025 review, a customer said Jose and his team cut about 15 trees, tilled and leveled part of the backyard and cut the grass. A 2025 customer said bushes were trimmed and some removed, the old mulch taken up and new mulch put down. A recent customer said that after a summer of lawn care, the company ended service by text with no explanation; that customer later wrote that a payment had gone out two days late and recommended a written contract with payment terms. A recent 1-star review said the service never arrived on time and that the owner cut the permanent lights off the house and argued with the reviewer's mother-in-law. The Connecticut home improvement contractor registration of J. MARTIN LANDSCAPING LLC, number HIC.0666087, is expired on the state registry. A local news report names Jose Martin as the owner of J.

Jose is an amazing landscaper with excellent customer service. His prices are very reasonable and he responds quickly. He takes great pride in his work and it shows. I hired him for fall cleanup and he went above and beyond. Transformed my yard so beautifully. He removed leaves, mowed and weed whacked every area imaginable. He's definitely a keeper and will do my lawn maintenance going forward. I'm beyond pleased with his work. Highly recommend!!
I called J. Martin Landscaping, I spoke with Jose the owner. I set up for him to look at my property for lawn pricing. I agreed for him to do the job. He came out next day and did a Great job, cleared the leaves, mowed the grass, he did such a beautiful job! I just bought this home, and the place didn't look this good when I got it.Jose made the yard look brand new.. I am Very happy and thankful I got Jose from J, Martin Landscaping to do my place. He is a excellent worker..Thank you for your lawn service. I couldnt get any better than this. Glad I found him on Google..
After an an entire summer of lawn care, I got an abrupt text message without any explanation that J. Martin Lanscaping would not longer provide services to my family's home on Burnside Ave. Left us without any service or reason. After submitting a critical review on google, they contacted me. We will be resolving issues over payment shortly. We payed them two days later than they expected due to travel logistics. I strongly recommend obtaining a written contract for services (lawn, snow, landscape construction) with payment terms. Not having one led to confusion. We are hoping to rehire them to continue lawn work and add snow removal this winter. (revised Oct 2026)
Jose was very responsive. He came out same day, provided a reasonable quote, and did an exceptional job with fall yard cleanup. Our yard is large and was a mess of overgrowth, pine needles, and leaves. He was very efficient and thoughtful - he even took time to clean leaf/yard debris from my daughter’s outdoor playhouse and get rid of some invasive overgrowth. I’d absolutely use him again and recommend him to others - thanks, Jose!
My neighbor got him for my lawn. He is AMAZING!!! Did a fabulous job. He transformed my lawn that was overgrown. I came home to a new place!!! He is nice, kind, and a very hard worker. I would recommend him to anyone!!
