Verified record
Mendoza Landscaping is a Belmont company built around one name customers keep repeating: Marvin, who reviewers say shows up personally to quote jobs, listens to what they want, and works alongside his crew. Across nearly four dozen written reviews spanning 2022 through this year, the same themes repeat — spring and fall cleanups, mulching, edging, and routine lawn care, done thoroughly and at what reviewers consistently call fair, reasonable pricing. The specific work described runs well beyond a basic mow-and-go. A review from earlier this year describes planting a privacy row of arborvitae trees. A series of 2025 reviews add more: trimming tall trees, clearing invasive vines, digging a trench for an electrical conduit before laying sod, and power-washing a patio as part of a larger spring cleanup. A 2024 review describes trimming overgrown bushes. Several customers say they've used Marvin for years — one describes five years of gardening and landscape advice in a 2025 review, another two years of ongoing yard work — and multiple reviews describe him personally following up and being reachable by text when something needs adjusting. The company also handles snow removal, per a 2024 review, and commercial cleanup, including a 2025 review describing a full condo-complex yard cleanup. One review stands apart from the rest: a 2024 account describes an early-season visit where leaf blowing done too close to the ground killed an entire flower garden, along with early Saturday morning mowing that disturbed the household. It's the only negative account in the written record, but worth raising directly if you have plantings you want protected during a cleanup. For routine yard care and seasonal cleanups in Belmont, the volume and consistency of specific, repeat-client praise stands out among area landscapers.

We needed a row of Arborvitae trees (for privacy) planted to replace some that died last year. I contacted Mendoza Landscaping and Marvin came over that day to take a look and sent me a quote shortly thereafter, which was very reasonable. When we decided to move forward with the project, Marvin gave me a date not too distant in the future, which was great. They came when they said they were going to and took their time to do the job right. They ended up a total of installing 11 Arborvitaes. We were very impressed with the job!
Marvin and his team did a phenomenal job for my yard and the spring cleaning. I would 100% recommend them for any other yard and lawn care
Marvin has been working on our yard for 2 years. He is excellent!
Marvin and his team were meticulous and transformed our yard!
