M&L LANDSCAPING, CONSTRUCTION AND MORE INC

M&L Landscaping, Construction and More is a Lynn crew homeowners keep calling back for the same arc: routine mowing and cleanups that turn into stonework, fencing, or a hardscape project down the line. The company says it's been at it for 10 years out of Lynn, covering the North Shore, and reviewers on two separate platforms independently point to the same two names running the work, Mario and Ludwin. The written reviews so far read like repeat business rather than one-off jobs. A daycare business in Everett has used them for over a year for routine property upkeep plus brick and stonework repairs and tree removal; a homeowner who's used them for years for lawn mowing, tree and shrub planting, and mulching calls them dependable; and a Thumbtack customer paid a reasonable price for a new fence and called the crew diligent and punctual. Google has them at 4.2 stars from five ratings and Thumbtack at a clean 5.0 from three, and every review that actually has text runs five stars. One wrinkle worth knowing: one of the five Google ratings carries no comment at all, and it's the one dragging the average down from what would otherwise be an unbroken run of five-star write-ups — there's no description of what that rating was about. Separately, a federal trucking-safety record tied to the company's own equipment shows it as an active, in-good-standing carrier, which at least confirms a real, operating business behind the name. For routine yard upkeep that might turn into a fence or a stone walkway later, the pattern here is a crew people rehire rather than a single transaction — worth asking for a couple of recent local references before booking, since the written review count is still small.
