Landscaping reviews in Waltham, Massachusetts

Friends of Gardens has been wonderful to work with. Our garden has a distinct personality -- and micro-climate -- and they've been very flexible in working with us and timing their services right. We've been very happy with their work and look forward to another fun season!

Friends of Gardens built a patio and repaired a wall and they were top notch - beautifully designed, friendly and communicative, flexible when I thought of minor changes, expert craftsmen that were a pleasure to watch, and they left my property spotless. I am delighted.

The team at Friends of Gardens Landscaping have created and maintained beautiful landscaping around my house. Eualio goes out of his way to make sure we love any new plantings, to understand our aesthetic tastes and to design spaces that creatively reflect our style. The team of men who maintain the garden are skilled, hard working and quite respectful and polite. FGL has definitely created that “wow” factor every time anyone walks into our yard.

Eulalio and his crew are simply the best - the best in caring about the work they do, about listening to our requests and about completing jobs in a timely and efficient manner. They are knowledgable, personable and we are happy to give them an excellent review. Our gardens thrive under their care.

I am a garden designer/fine gardener by profession, and I have leaned on Eulalio and his team for several larger projects that were just beyond my scope. They are consummately professional, very detail oriented, and work fast. Since the buck stops with me on any of my large projects with clients, I am very picky when a comes to contracting work. But if I need a competent and knowledgeable team to help me, I’ll use Friends of Gardens in a heartbeat.

I can’t say enough good things about Eulalio and Friends of Gardens. From the jump, Eulalio was so patient and thoughtful in helping me figure out what to put in my garden, and he really considered things I would have missed like light exposure etc. He also worked with me to come up with a plan within my budget which I was so appreciative of. And when it finally came time to do the work - WOW! It looks incredible. The crew was in and out in a day, and I couldn’t believe how quickly they transformed my backyard. I will be a customer for years to come!!!

The team did an excellent job planting everything. We did about 30 plants and everything was installed perfectly on a hot summer day. Everyone was on time, worked extremely hard and were very professional and friendly. Couldn't be happier with the result!

Eulalio and his team did a great job on my spring cleanup - cut tress, trimmed shrubs. they completed the work on schedule and were professional and wonderful to work with.

Friends of Gardens is a great company to work with because they build what was promised, on time, and on budget. So many neighbors have commented on how hardworking and efficient the crew is. Eulalio, the owner, also pays attention to details, ensures top quality work, and provides excellent customer service.

Friends of Gardens trimmed back shrubs and trees from around our house last summer so it could be painted. They worked with our schedule, were flexible and did a great job. It was a pleasure to work with them. I highly recommend their work.

Eulalio and his crew are professional, knowledgeable, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. Their recent spring clean-up ahd refreshment of my perennial garden in Cambridge has left everything looking lush and beautiful.

Eulalio and his team did an installation of plants we purchased through Weston Nursery’s design group. Eulalio said he was not a designer but he has a great eye and made terrific suggestions. His team was polite, efficient, and clearly like working together. I would love to work with them again! ~Sherborn MA

Eulalio and his team are meticulous and take the time necessary to keep our property looking wonderful. Friends of Gardens worked with our landscape architect to develop a plan for our front yard that would be appropriate for our hill and the sun profile and then procured and planted the plants and coordinated with the irrigation company for their installation. The are very skilled at caring for the plants and maintaining the areas. We look forward to continuing to work with them!

Eulalio is extremely honest, pleasant, trustworthy and knowledgeable. He has a creative mind and an artistic eye, and combined with his deep knowledge of plants, shrubs and flowers, he has created gardens at my house that bring frequent compliments from passersby.
He is a pleasure to work with!

Eulalio and his team are fantastic! We've been working with them for 2+ years now: starting with a beautiful garden design that they created, through implementation of "the plan" (with lots of helpful adjustments along the way), and now on to regular, professional maintenance. Through all of this we have been continually impressed with the vision and creativity, grounded in a deep knowledge of plants and local growing conditions, and a gentle attentiveness that is very reassuring. Highly recommend!

Eulalio is very professional. He spent a great deal of time on our property sharing his creative ideas and listening to what I was hoping to achieve. He was very timely with his follow up and design ideas.

fabulous!! Marty Rosenthal, Brookline

Great company they do excellent work,very professional.

Good experiences........
Giovani is the best and the most knowledgeable..
He is the one to talk to before you start any project.

Fantastic people with fantastic skills. Best 'landscaping' business I've ever spoken with. They do the right kind of work FOR people and planet 🙏🏼

I called Yard and A Half for fall clean up, tree work and advice on ongoing maintenance of the yards and woods at our new house. They were experts, understanding the best approach to maximize the native plants, explained the various plants' flowering cadences and gave solid advice on how to care for the "lawn" that seems to pretty wild at this point. Their service was fast and thorough. It was a pleasure to work with them to get my yard cleaned up and it is heartening to know that it is an employee-owned company treating their employees well. Their employee retention is remarkable with many people having worked there for 20 or 30 years. It felt good to support a company doing the right thing and they were affordable and quality. What's not to love.
