Star Landscaping & Design

Star Landscaping & Design works out of 172A N Main St in South Yarmouth and covers the Mid Cape. The Better Business Bureau records it as trading since 1976 with four employees, also doing business as Star Landscaping & Firewood, and lists Leslie Starace as the owner. What it is hired for is broad for a small crew: lawn maintenance, lawn installation, landscape construction, firewood, and snow plowing. That winter side is what put it on homeowners' radar - in a December 2022 r/CapeCod thread where someone was trying to arrange snow removal for an elderly relative on the Mid Cape, a commenter answered with this company, described it as father-and-son owned and called them good people. That is close to the whole of the public record. Google shows a five-star average built on a single rating, and the Better Business Bureau publishes no rating at all, saying it does not have enough information about the business to issue one; the BBB profile carries no review bodies and no complaint count. The remaining pages that surface are directory listings that generate their own text rather than collecting customer accounts. A few details are worth clearing up directly. The BBB profile contradicts itself on the owner, naming 'Mr. Leslie Starace' in one section and 'Ms. Leslie Staracre' in another, and it says the business was 'established in 1976 in Connecticut' even though its address and phone are on Cape Cod. This is the right call for someone who wants a long-established, small local outfit for seasonal lawn work or winter plowing on the Mid Cape. Because so little has been written about them, ask for two or three local references and get the scope and price in writing before the season starts.
