Mass Landscaping

Mass Landscaping has operated out of Hanover, MA since 2005 — 21 years, per its Better Business Bureau file — under owner Evaldo Carvalho, and describes itself as a family-run, full-service outfit: landscape design and installation, lawn care, hardscaping and retaining walls, irrigation, bobcat and grading work, yard renovation, and commercial snow plowing. It holds a BBB A+ letter grade, though it has never applied for BBB accreditation. Its Google profile shows 3.8 stars across 14 ratings, but the small set of written reviews behind that number tell a more mixed story than the average alone suggests — praise for the quality of finished work sits alongside complaints about job follow-through and scheduling reliability. The gap matters: Birdeye's separate listing for the company, filed under its Hanover address, shows a lower 3.3 stars from its own small pool of reviews, echoing that same split rather than the higher Google average. Worth asking about directly before booking: get the scope of any larger job spelled out in writing rather than a loose verbal estimate, and ask how the crew handles scheduling and any accidental damage to underground lines or plantings during work — both come up as recurring themes in what customers have flagged. It's also worth confirming which location you're actually dealing with: some directories (BBB, Houzz, BestProsInTown) still list an older Braintree address, while the company's own site and Birdeye point to Hanover. For routine seasonal work — mowing, cleanups, snow plowing — Mass Landscaping has two decades of history and a mix of long-term and one-off customers behind it. For a bigger hardscaping or grading job, put the plan and price in writing up front and confirm how damage during work would be handled before the crew starts.
