McNamara Bros.

McNamara Bros. has been building and maintaining Cape Cod landscapes out of Harwich since 1985, and the company says it's still run day-to-day by the three McNamara brothers — Patrick, Chris, and Kevin. It covers a wide stretch of the Mid and Lower Cape, from Harwich and the Yarmouths through Chatham, Dennis, Brewster, Barnstable, and Sandwich, offering everything from landscape design and construction to ongoing maintenance. The clearest signal here is a single long-running relationship: in a 2023 review, a customer described work going back to the 1990s — McNamara installing lawns and driveways, building extensive stone walls, and clearing downed trees and storm debris — the kind of account that only comes from years of repeat business, not a one-off job. Another reviewer, also in 2023, called the crew "extremely professional" and recommended them for full-service landscape work. On the lawn-care side, the company says it runs licensed and certified pesticide applicators for its fertilization and pest programs, alongside irrigation installation, hydroseeding, and mulch service — the seasonal maintenance work that fills the gaps between bigger construction jobs. Not everything is glowing: a 2025 Google review knocked the company's drivers as "irresponsible" and "oblivious" on the road — a complaint about how the crew gets around rather than the quality of the landscape work itself, but worth asking about if a busy street or narrow driveway is part of the job. McNamara Bros. isn't BBB accredited, and BBB doesn't show a rating or complaint history for it, so that particular record is thin. For a homeowner weighing a landscape design-and-build project against ongoing lawn care, McNamara's decades-long client relationships and broad service list point toward a company built for the long haul — just worth confirming current scheduling and crew conduct before signing on for a bigger job.
