MACH Masonry and Landscaping

MACH Masonry and Landscaping works out of the Peabody area, and the calls that keep coming in are for the big backyard jobs — retaining walls, patios, and full-scale grading — rather than small fixes. The company's own site describes it as a masonry, hardscaping, landscaping, and snow-removal outfit covering Greater Boston, the North Shore, and the South Shore, and every review circles back to one name: Mario, described consistently as the person who shows up, quotes the job, and runs the crew. That consistency shows in the numbers — a 5.0 on both Google (24 ratings) and Angi (23 ratings), with no negative reviews surfaced on either. This spring, two reviewers described near-identical large projects: one had two retaining walls built, a backyard leveled, a rock garden and tile basement floor added, plus a full yard cleanup; the other had two retaining walls, backyard leveling, gravel and new grass seeding, a spring cleanup, and new basement tile, finished within days despite the weather. Both singled out communication and reliability as much as the finished work itself. That pattern isn't new. Going back to 2019, the same kind of project recurs across three dozen reviews on Google and Angi — a 10-foot-high, 25-foot-long retaining wall in Lynn that other contractors wouldn't take on, garage demolitions paired with tree removal and paver patios running into the hundreds of square feet, and smaller jobs like a single patio or walkway. One older review also mentions fence installation done alongside a driveway and patio, so fencing is part of the mix, but it isn't what the bulk of the history is about — walls, patios, and full-yard transformations are. One thing worth checking directly: the business address on file is in Lynn, while its website and Angi profile list Peabody as the operating location — worth confirming exactly which town they're dispatching from before booking. Beyond that, there's nothing across years of reviews pointing to a scheduling miss, a pricing dispute, or unfinished work. For a homeowner facing a retaining wall or a full backyard regrade rather than a quick patch, this is a company with a track record built specifically on that scale of job. Get the estimate in writing and confirm the crew that's actually showing up.
