## The honest read

MSL Landscaping, run by Moises (also written Moses) out of Lynn, is the crew homeowners call for hardscape builds — retaining walls, patios, stone pathways — as much as for routine mulch, cleanup and planting work. The reviews span 2018 through late 2025, and the same story repeats across nearly all of them: fast callbacks, clean lines, and nothing left behind.

The written record runs deep. In a 2020 review, a customer described a 40-foot retaining wall and roughly 20-square-foot patio that required significant excavation, calling Moises knowledgeable and the standard of work high. A 2021 review detailed 180 feet of stone pathways — dug out, edged in metal, filled with landscape cloth, crushed stone and pea stone — completed over three days in 90-plus-degree heat. Another customer, in a 2019 review, listed a string of repeat jobs — a lawn regrade, hydroseeding, a small retaining wall, fall cleanups — and said they kept coming back to him. Speed comes up often too: a 2020 HomeAdvisor review described MSL responding within an hour of a request and finishing a snow-deadline yard cleanup the next day, after another company had stalled for six weeks.

More recent Google reviews, from 2025, stick to smaller jobs in the same vein — a patio project called quick and fair-priced, a same-week mulch-and-cleanup visit, Arborvitae trees planted efficiently, and a yard-and-pool cleanup scheduled within days of being asked. Angi and HomeAdvisor both list MSL at 4.9★ from 23 ratings, and Google shows 5★ from 6 ratings.

MSL looks suited equally to a full hardscape project or a seasonal cleanup — worth confirming current scheduling and scope directly with Moises, since most of the detailed big-build reviews (the retaining walls, the stone pathways) date from 2019 to 2021 rather than the last couple of years.

**Strengths:**
- Hardscape work — built a 40-ft retaining wall, 180-ft stone pathways
- Fast response — on-site within days, once within an hour
- Repeat customers — regraded a lawn, hydroseeded, then handled fall cleanups
- High ratings — 4.9★ across 23 reviews on Angi and HomeAdvisor
