Verified record
Westview Farms & Associates Corp. is a landscaping business based in Boxborough, Massachusetts, run by Alan Cuming, who self-reports 32 years of experience and does the work himself with occasional help from immediate family rather than a crew. The written record here, dated 2008 to 2018, is consistently strong: 16 of 19 reviews describe detailed, well-executed landscaping projects — a 2013 review describes an excavated retaining wall built from stone found on the property, a 2018 review describes a full front-yard transformation with flowers, grasses, bushes and placed stones, and a 2012 review describes shrub and flower-bed work plus a brick walkway repair. Reviewers repeatedly praise Alan's communication, being on time and on budget, and one customer specifically called the pricing unbeatable. A couple of reviews note minor issues (a single missed appointment in one case, a more modest 3.5-star account in another) without describing any serious problem. All of the written reviews on file are from 2018 or earlier, so there is no first-hand account of the business's more recent work; anyone considering hiring should ask about current availability and see recent project photos, since the newest dated review is now several years old. For custom landscape design, retaining walls, and planting work from a single experienced owner-operator, the historical record here is strong, though it should be paired with a check on current capacity given how dated the written reviews are.

Alan Cuming did a remarkable job transforming a dull looking mulched front yard area into a vibrant combination of flowers, grasses, bushes and artfully placed stones. His work was done on time and within budget.
We are very pleased with Westview! He came when he said he would, listened to our input, was very careful not to damage the lawn.
Friendly and on time
The best money we've spent on our home outside - went from overgrown & overwhelming - to a magazine cover. A true transformation.
Showed up when they said they would and did quality work within the estimated amount.
