B & D Landscaping

B & D Landscaping has been mowing lawns and building patios on the South Shore since 2003, according to the company's own account — a two-decade run for a small Abington outfit. On Google, the numbers look solid but shallow: 4.7 stars from a dozen ratings, with no individual review text behind the average. One client, writing about a front-yard planting project, called the crew easy to work with and communicative, and said the new flower beds they added turned out well enough to recommend the company. Its footprint elsewhere is thin. The Better Business Bureau lists it as not accredited and 'Not Rated' for lack of information, though its file does show ten employees and a business-start date of 2008 — five years later than the company's own history claims, a discrepancy worth flagging rather than a red flag on its own. Houzz has the business signed up with a long menu of services — hardscaping, masonry, irrigation, planting, lawn care — across nineteen South Shore towns, but not a single review posted there yet. There's nothing negative on record in what's actually documented, but there isn't much depth behind the good numbers either: a dozen Google ratings and one written testimonial is a small sample for a company claiming over twenty years in business. Before booking, it's worth asking for a few recent, specific project references, since the public record doesn't yet offer many to check.
