Landscape says it has been in business for over 40 years, serving Rhode Island and southeastern New England, and describes itself as family owned. On Houzz it calls itself a landscape construction company offering landscape design, stone masonry, pavers and drainage solutions. rinla.org's awards page lists the company with an Excellence Award. A recent Google customer says John worked with them to design what they wanted and kept in touch during the process. That customer says they repaired all lawn damage caused by their machines and praised how the patio and fire pit turned out. A 2023 Reddit commenter on r/RhodeIsland wrote that Shalvey had done two large landscaping and hardscaping projects for them. A 2023 commenter in the same subreddit pointed to the company as working out of Warwick and said they go anywhere. A recent Google reviewer cites poor integrity, poor communication and lack of accountability. A 2025 Google customer said the company replaced the shrubs and plants in a flower bed and repointed a brick foundation on a rental home, but installed different shrubs than the ones requested. That 2025 customer said the masonry work was poorly done, with areas around the house still requiring mortar repair. **Strengths:** - Design collaboration — a recent customer says John worked with them on the design - Lawn damage repaired — a recent customer says machine damage to the lawn was fixed - Repeat project work — a 2023 Reddit commenter said they did two large projects **Concerns:** - Communication and accountability — a recent Google reviewer calls both poor - Wrong shrubs installed — a 2025 customer said they differed from those requested - Foundation repointing — a 2025 customer said areas still required mortar repair ## Claims & citations Every claim below is backed by real evidence rows — uncited claims are dropped in code before publication. - Says it has been in business for over 40 years, serving Rhode Island and southeastern New England _(confidence: low)_ - [Official Website](http://shalveybroslandscape.com) — “About (self-reported, verbatim): Shalvey Bros.
