About Mac's Landscaping

Service area
Based in Stoneham, Mac's Landscaping is within a short drive of Melrose (2 mi), Wakefield (2 mi), Winchester (3 mi), Malden (3 mi), Woburn (4 mi) and Medford (4 mi). Most Massachusetts landscaping contractors work a 25-mile radius, so homeowners in those towns can reasonably ask for a quote.
Hiring a Landscaping contractor in Stoneham
The Stoneham Conservation Commission enforces the Wetlands Protection Act, so any grading, clearing, or planting within 100 feet of Spot Pond, a stream, or a wetland needs review and likely an Order of Conditions, with a tighter no-disturb zone closer in. Work bordering the Middlesex Fells DCR land carries added scrutiny. The town protects public shade trees under MGL c.87, so removing a tree in the right-of-way needs a hearing. Retaining walls over four feet require a building permit and engineering, and pools, significant regrading, and stormwater changes on small lots all trigger permits. Standard mowing, mulching, and planting on an existing lawn do not.
Stoneham pricing tracks the inner-suburb Boston market. Weekly mowing on a typical small lot runs $45-75. Spring cleanup $250-650, fall cleanup with heavy leaf load from mature trees $350-900. Bark mulch installed runs $90-130 per yard. A basic irrigation system for a small lot runs $4,500-7,000. Paver or bluestone patios on tight access lots run $10-16K because material has to be wheeled in by hand. Full design-build refreshes — new beds, plantings, walkway, and small patio — typically land $20K-60K, with larger projects near the Fells running higher due to ledge and slope.
Massachusetts requires a written contract and a Home Improvement Contractor registration for most residential landscaping work; ask for the registration number and check it before paying a deposit.
