Rose and Stone Landscape and Design is a landscaping company based in East Bridgewater, run by owner-operator James, whom reviewers describe as handling estimates and job oversight personally. The business serves South Shore homeowners with lawn mowing and general yard maintenance, and has also taken on at least one fence installation project. Google shows a 4.7-star average from 9 ratings, built on seven written reviews dating from 2021 to 2025. In a 2025 review, a homeowner said James beat two other bidders on price for a lawn mowing job and called him flexible and down-to-earth about scheduling. In a 2022 review, another customer described James coming out for a same-week assessment, working within their budget, and completing a fence installation they were happy with, adding that his crew set up a temporary fence overnight so their dogs could still use the yard. A 2023 reviewer said they use the company twice a year and called the crew professional and easy to work with. Not every account was positive. A 2024 review described a foundation-bed edging and mulching job where the customer said James underestimated how much mulch was needed, only edged one side of a walkway, and was rude and unprofessional when the customer raised the issue; that reviewer said someone else was hired to finish the work. Homeowners considering Rose and Stone should get the scope and materials for a landscaping job in writing before work begins, given the 2024 account of a disputed estimate. For routine mowing and yard maintenance, the more recent reviews describe a responsive, fairly priced operation worth a quote.

We had the same lawn mowing company for years and they seemed to take us fro granted, a bit, so we shopped our lawn out to two other bidders and asked all three for their best price. James at Rose and Stone had the best price and just seemed like the right guy for the job. He has not disappointed and is flexible with our schedule. He is pricing out a patio for us and I like his down-to-Earth nature while also being professional.
Great work and very efficient 🙏🏼😊
We’ve always had issues with finding a reliable landscaper to show up and even quote a job, but James was super quick to respond, quote, and perform the work. We couldn’t be happier with his communication, promptness and quality of work. We have definitely found our landscaper for future work! Hideous falling apart rock island is gone!
If all you want is the bare minimum of just grass mowing, it will be okay. If you need landscaping, edging, mulching, bed creation then you may want to look elsewhere. James underestimates aj ob and then blames the homeowner. Asked to have foundation beds edged and wood chipped and James underestimated the wood chips by at least 5- 6 cubic yards leaving the beds thinly covered. He edged only one side of the walkway which is something a beginner would do He is rude, unprofessional with his interaction with the homeowner. Someone else has been hired to complete the job in it's entirety. Now I know why he does not have any recent reviews.
I couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. I use them twice a year and they're always professional and easy to work with. Not to mention how awesome they make your yard look!
