Lyons Landscaping, Inc.

Lyons Landscape/Hardscape, working out of the South Shore, is the call homeowners make for retaining walls, patios and full-yard hardscape builds — the same specific jobs turn up review after review, and nearly every one names Russ Lyons directly. The company says it has been in operation for more than 20 years, serving Duxbury, Marshfield, Pembroke, Kingston, Norwell, Hanson, Plymouth, Carver, Marion, Mattapoisett and the wider South Shore, South Coast and Southeastern Massachusetts. Two reviews from this past summer describe a cobblestone walkway and retaining wall finished quickly and a large patio-and-walkway redo, both crediting Russ and his crew by name. Further back, reviews from 2023 through 2025 describe a total yard makeover with sod, irrigation, a six-car flagstone driveway and turf accents; a patio built around a newly installed pool after Russ walked the homeowners through design and cost options; a fire pit, patio repairs and a full planting redesign; and a retaining wall, patio, pergola and walkway finished in one project. Across all 10 Google reviews on file since 2023, every one is five stars, and Russ Lyons is named directly in most of them, described as attentive on design and upfront on cost. There's no negative account on file to weigh against this. Before booking, it's still worth confirming current lead times, since a company this consistently recommended tends to book out. For a hardscape-heavy project — a wall, a patio, a full yard rebuild — the reviews point to a crew that stays hands-on through design and installation.
