Service area
Based in Ashland, Matthews Landscape and Construction is within a short drive of Holliston (3 mi), Sherborn (4 mi), Framingham (5 mi), Hopkinton (5 mi), Natick (6 mi) and Medway (6 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 Ashland
Ashland's Conservation Commission enforces the Wetlands Protection Act plus a local bylaw, so work within 100 feet of the reservoir, the Sudbury River, a wetland, stream, or pond needs review and likely an Order of Conditions, with a tighter inner no-disturb zone; Riverfront Area protection adds a wider buffer along the river. The town protects public shade trees under state law. Retaining walls over four feet require a building permit and engineering, and pools, regrading, and stormwater work need permits. Larger clearing and subdivision projects can trigger stormwater review. Routine mowing, mulching, and planting on existing lawn outside regulated areas does not require permitting.
Ashland pricing runs near the MetroWest average. Weekly mowing on a typical lot runs $45-80. Spring cleanup $250-700, fall cleanup $300-950. Bark mulch installed runs $90-135 per yard. Irrigation for a typical suburban lot runs $4,500-8,500. Bluestone or paver patios run $10-16K. Drainage corrections for wet lots near the river or reservoir run $3,000-11,000. New-construction landscape establishment runs $12K-40K. Full design-build with beds, plantings, irrigation, and hardscape typically lands $20K-75K, with wetland-buffer lots running higher once conservation filings and drainage work are factored in.
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.
