"Roberto and his crew did an outstanding job! We usually do all of our hedge abs shrub trimming ourselves, but with a few other projects going on we hadn’t gotten them all season long and they were seriously overgrown. Since we COULD do it ourselves, we had a limit on what we were willing to pay, so we were getting several quotes … most of which were higher than we had hoped. Roberto worked with us on the pricing, which was good news because now it was off of our plate! His crew was there the early next day … fast, friendly, courteous, conscientious and neat! We are now looking to have Roberto and his crew back to take a few more projects off of our plate too! If you want a great job, at great price, by a great crew … we highly recommend Roberto’s Affordable Lands aping!"

"Great customer service. Honest. Hard working. Skilled."

We are a small company of 3 or less employees. We work as one crew and only run one job at a time until it is complete and the customer is totally satisfied.

"M&L Landscaping Construction is absolutely incredible! You will not regret hiring Leo and his team for your project. I first hired Leo for one job, and after seeing the quality, precision, and care in his work, I immediately brought him back for a second. The first project included pavers, a retaining wall with built-in seating, a garden bed, patio/paver installation, fence installation, and a composite deck with stairs. The second project was for my rental property and involved an insurance claim to repair the facade of the house. That work included installing stone veneers on the front of my home, constructing a new deck with a roof, building a stone wall with fencing, and completing a blacktop driveway. What truly sets M&L apart is not just the beauty and craftsmanship of their work, but the professionalism, organization, and integrity behind it. Leo’s team is respectful of your property, punctual, and incredibly hardworking. They take pride in what they do and it shows in every detail—from layout precision to cleanup after completion. Equally impressive is how Leo manages the business side of things. He’s communicative, transparent, and extremely reliable—qualities that are rare to find in the contracting world. He provides clear timelines, fair pricing, and proactive updates, so you always know where things stand. Having worked with many contractors over the years, I can confidently say that M&L Landscaping Construction is top-notch from start to finish. I was so impressed that I even referred my parents for their driveway paver installation—and, just as expected, it came out beautiful. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and professional landscaping and construction team, hire M&L Landscaping Construction. You’ll be glad you did!"

"After several attempts to just hire Golden Hill Landscaping & Construction (during a bid process), I finally did. The rates seemed comparable, at first. However, there were many projects to be completed at my deceased mother's house. Because I am disabled and not able to get to the property, I couldn't see how badly I was taken advantage of. Not only did I pay for a job they did not do, I also paid for another job that is unfinished, plus a french drain that is causing a sink hole, and the buried equipment is now above ground. All 3 of these projects pose safety risks. The french drain collapse is only a few months after installation. After bringing these issues to the owners attention (the unfinished project I'd requested be completed for months), the owner began ignoring me. When I mentioned that litigation was going to move forward, the owner said he'd look at the work that week then blew me off again. When they actually do work, Golden Hill's quality of work is atrocious and will need to be fixed. They broke the house vinyl siding when cutting down a tree branch and refused to fix it. I hired a contractor to fix that. They will overcharge (snowplowing is expensive), take advantage of you if you are a senior or disabled, and will try to get paid without working. They should not be in business and allowed to take advantage. I now have to pay someone else to fix their work, finish their work, and do a $375 job they never did. They've been paid over $10,000, with more work to be done at multiple properties. They agreed to do a quote at a second property, then never showed up. One would figure, with that kind if business, a company would want to perform quality work and respond to a dedicated customer. Aroldo at Golden Hill Landscaping & Construction will do a poor job or not at all, blow off appointments, ignore requests, and refuse to fix problems. He will, however, not hesitate to pick up a check. You should not ever hire them. If you do, be prepared to throw money away."

Nathan has been working with Peter since the early 90’s and is a very knowledgeable and a skilled arborist. Jordan has been full time with the company since the late 90’s and as well as his knowledge in fine tree care, he is also a skilled climber and bucket operator. Judy has also played a large role in the company since its inception. From answering business calls to book keeping to providing meals and caring for the work crew on a daily basis as if they where family.

Peter has always held to the important belief that being fully insured to protect his clients and those working for him is of top priority.

"Could not have been more pleased with the results. Pete and his sons took care of my needs in a timely, professional and affordable manner. I highly recommend them for any tree work and would hire again myself."

ONLY 13-time Super Service Award Winner in Massachusetts Landscape Industry. Mid-sized landscape design & build. Lawn replacement strategies. Activity and gathering areas, home entries, glorious beds. Exceptional horticulture and site engineering. Owner, Leisha Johnson is an accomplished landscape designer, with hundreds of installed designs. A talented horticulturist and Certified Master Gardener, she holds a Masters' degree in Engineering and has extensive large-scale project management experience. Leisha and her team work to stay current on industry technology, environmental, plant and materials advances. The staff which includes horticulturalists and certified horticulturalists enjoy bringing natural beauty to our clients. Many projects are employing turf alternatives, pollinator gardens, and naturalistic landscapes. The owner holds a Construction Supervisor License (CSL) and pulls permits for projects when needed. We always enjoy a challenge.

"I wanted to create a more inviting backyard but wasn’t able to do it on my own. Leisha understood what I was looking for and created an outdoor space that was better than I could even imagine. My patio is now surrounded by a gorgeous perennial garden, lattice and thuja combined provide a buffer from our busy street, and new hardscape has been added to move the grill out of the traffic area. Leisha had so many wonderful ideas that we ended up implementing. The people who worked on our yard were meticulous and hard working save for one subcontractor. Leisha let him go and made up for his errors out of her own pocket. We couldn’t be happier with our new outdoor space."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Installation typically takes 2-5 days, depending on the structure size and site preparation.

Clean regularly, treat wood for weather resistance, and inspect for damage to ensure longevity.

Yes, you can build a pergola yourself or with a helper after you obtain any necessary building permits. A pergola can be as simple or complex as you like. Building a pergola is an excellent way to showcase your DIY skills and learn new ones along the way.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.

Your fence post holes should be about three times as wide as the post. So if your post is 4-by-4 inches, you should make your hole at least 12 inches wide. The depth of the hole depends on the height of your post, but it should be as deep as one-third of the post height.
