Whitten Landscaping has been shaping Cape Cod yards out of South Yarmouth since 1995, by the company's own account: landscape design and installation, stonework, pool surrounds and outdoor kitchens, plus the steadier half of the work — weekly grounds maintenance, mulch, irrigation and winter plowing. Its BBB profile lists the corporation as formed in 1999, with 32 employees, president Craig R Whitten and vice president Nicole Whitten. Much of the work sits in permits and galleries. BuildZoom's permit history includes a 14-by-24 pool house and an in-ground pool at one Yarmouth Port address, plus septic trenches in South and West Yarmouth, and seven project galleries on Houzz show Cape landscaping, stonework, outdoor kitchens and pool surrounds. In 2016, the Cape Cod Times reported the company had donated $40,000 in materials and labor to build a field. In July 2026, a homeowner who had an irrigation system and hydro grass put in wrote that the crew came exactly when they said they would and were on time and polite throughout. A Yarmouth Port neighbor wrote on Nextdoor in 2025 that they had used Whitten's for close to 20 years and been happy with the service, and a 2021 reviewer pointed to the quality of the work and the customer service. A February 2023 review gave the company one star and told other homeowners to stay clear. On Google the average is 4.5 stars across 11 ratings, and the BBB grade is A+. For a Cape property that needs both a built landscape and someone to keep it up through the seasons, this is a company set up to do both. BuildZoom lists a Massachusetts landscape contractor licence, #169828 — look that number up on the state register yourself, ask for a current insurance certificate, and get the maintenance program's scope and season dates in writing before you commit.

“a subcontractor on the project and Sampsel’s employer”
We called Whitten Landscaping to install an irrigation system and hydro grass. They came exactly when they said they would and did such an incredible job with everything. Always on time, always professional, and so polite. This has been an excellent experience and we are so grateful they were recommended to us. If you need any lawn work done I can highly recommend them.
