Lassana's Landscaping, Inc

On Google, Lassana's Landscaping in Marblehead sits at 4.9 stars across 24 ratings, and the reviews keep naming the same two people running the show: Lassana and his wife Alison. The company's own site says the two of them operate the business together, covering garden design and planting, lawn renovation and care, masonry and hardscaping such as patios and retaining walls, and seasonal cleanups, with a stated service area of Marblehead, Swampscott, Nahant, Lynn, Salem, Peabody, and Beverly. A separate landscaper directory, mawlawn.com, credits the company with more than 20 years serving Swampscott and Marblehead and tracks its own tally of 4.7 stars across 23 reviews. The two reviews posted in the last few months describe a small crew working fast on full-property jobs. One homeowner preparing to sell had Alison come out to walk the yard, offer suggestions, and then send a crew that finished a curb-appeal overhaul in a single day, matching what the owner had pictured. Another recent review points to the same pattern — a full operation, not just a mow-and-go, with scheduling and execution both called out by name. That fits the longer history: 19 reviews dating back to 2022 across five different sources, with the tone staying steady rather than swinging between praise and complaints. Before booking, it's worth treating the star counts as approximate rather than exact — Google's tally (4.9 from 24) and the mawlawn.com tally (4.7 from 23) don't quite match, which is normal for a company whose reviews are split across platforms, but it means the review base backing that near-5-star average is still fairly small for a company with two decades behind it. This is a fit for someone in its North Shore service towns wanting one crew for both planting and lawn upkeep and smaller masonry work like a patio or retaining wall, with the owners still hands-on rather than handing the job off to a rotating crew. Given the modest review count, asking for a recent local reference before a bigger hardscape project is a reasonable step.
