Patrick J Kierce Sons Landscaping

Patrick J Kierce Sons Landscaping is a Medford, Massachusetts landscaping company the family says has run since 1991, when Patrick Kierce Sr., who came to the U.S. from Ireland in 1967, started it; the company describes itself as still family-run today by Kierce Sr., his wife Noreen, and sons Patrick Jr. and Christopher. Its own site lists landscape design and installation, hardscaping, night lighting, water features like ponds and waterfalls, and synthetic lawn installs. The one written review on file, from 2023, praised the "eye for detail and design" on a front-and-rear yard job tied to a home renovation, calling out the crew's work ethic and professionalism. Its Better Business Bureau profile lists an A+ grade (it is not BBB-accredited) and puts it at 15 years in business with five employees. Google, though, shows an overall rating of 3.1 stars across seven ratings — noticeably lower than the tone of that one full review, so the broader picture on Google likely includes less glowing feedback not captured here. The credentials are worth knowing if hands-on landscaping expertise matters for the job: the company says it has a Massachusetts Certified Landscape Professional and a Massachusetts Certified Arborist on staff, plus ICPI certification for patio, driveway, and wall paver work. For design-forward yard and hardscape projects around Medford, the family history and certifications are a reasonable starting point — ask to see recent work given how thin the review record is, and keep in mind the gap between the one glowing review here and Google's overall 3.1-star showing.
