Lawn Care and Landscaping Questions, Boston, MA Answers

What are red flags when hiring a lawn care and landscaping company in Boston?
Watch for large upfront deposits, no written contract, no verifiable Massachusetts license or insurance, and pressure to decide on the spot. Solid Boston companies put scope, timeline, and payment schedule in writing without being asked.
What insurance should a Boston lawn care and landscaping company carry?
At minimum: general liability insurance and, if the company has employees, workers' compensation. Ask any Boston provider for a certificate of insurance and confirm it is current - without it, an on-site injury or property damage can become your problem.
Should I get multiple lawn care and landscaping estimates in Boston?
Yes. Quotes in the Boston area can vary widely for identical work. Getting several written estimates costs you nothing and gives you leverage plus a clear view of the market rate.
Do I need a permit for lawn care and landscaping work in Boston?
Many lawn care and landscaping projects require a permit, and in Boston they are issued locally - typically through the Suffolk County or city building department. A reputable contractor will know exactly what your project needs and often handles the paperwork.
