Steve's Services has been cutting lawns and clearing yards around Malden and Everett for a long stretch — the company says it started over 20 years ago as Steve's Lawn Care Services before rebranding to reflect a wider slate of work, and BBB has Steve Sylva running the operation since 1995. People hire them for seasonal cleanups, sod and irrigation installs, hardscaping like patios and French drains, and winter snow contracts for condo lots and business parks around Malden, Everett, Medford, and the other towns they list. The last six months back that up with specifics: one homeowner had Steve walk through design ideas for a backyard project before the crew started, another got an itemized sod-and-mulching quote the day after asking with no attempt to upsell additional work, and two separate spring cleanups this year were wrapped up quickly with the leaves, bed edging, and mulch all handled in one visit. One recent reviewer summed the operation up as "honest, quick and reliable" — a combination they said is hard to find. Across 32 reviews collected since 2023 and a Google page sitting at 5 stars from 45 ratings, the last six months produced zero complaints, and that record stretches back through years of sprinkler installs, French drains, and multi-year cleanup contracts. Two things worth checking before booking: BBB lists the company's official address in Everett, while its own site and several directory listings point to a Malden storefront on Broadway, so it's worth confirming which office is handling your job. The BBB A+ grade is real — it comes straight from BBB's own page — but Steve's Services has not sought BBB accreditation, and the 5-star HomeAdvisor badge on its site is a figure the company reports itself rather than something independently confirmed here. This is a fit for routine lawn care, seasonal yard cleanups, sod and irrigation work, hardscaping, and snow contracts rather than a design-only firm. With a service list spanning French drains to full patio work and a clean run of reviews behind it, the main thing to pin down going in is whether your town falls inside their stated coverage area and which address to reach out to first.

My wife and I were very pleased with Steve and his crew. Steve offered his professional experience and input in designing our back yard. Highly recommend using Steve for all landscaping needs.

I had a wonderful experience working with Steve’s Services! I contacted Steve to help with a sod lawn installation and mulching. Within a day of contacting Steve, he performed an estimate, and delivered an itemized quote the next day. His communication throughout the process was professional and fair and he was the only landscaper I contacted who didn’t attempt to upsell me on additional work which I greatly appreciated. The pictures speak for themselves- Steve and his crew did an unbelievable job and our yard has been transformed! Steve and his crew were thorough, kind, and professional- finishing the job in 1/2 the time that was expected. Steve was also able to make necessary repairs to an almost 30 year old irrigation system to get it running like new. We are so thrilled with the end result and recommend Steve’s Services to anyone looking for honest and reliable landscaping! Thank you, Steve! We hope to work with you on future projects and maintenance!

Steve’s service has been nothing short of spectacular so far. Honest, quick and reliable. Tough to find that combination lately.

We had a spring cleanup done by Steve’s Services and the results were fantastic. The team was professional, hardworking, and paid attention to every detail. They cleaned up all the leaves, edged the beds, mulched, and left the yard looking great. They arrived on time, worked efficiently, and clearly take pride in their work. We will definitely hire them for future projects on our property. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality landscaping services.

Steve and his workers did a spring clean-up of my yard. Job was done really well, quickly, and for a fair price. That's all you can ask for!
