Top notch. We have used several landscapers and Matt and his team are in a whole different level. Extremely responsive, detail oriented, and very fast. Would not hesitate to recommend for any projects. read more

We had a great experience with MJ Nicholls Landscaping. They built our patio and landscaped our backyard, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Matt was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, and the pricing was fair and transparent from the start. The crew was skilled, professional, and efficient, and they completed the project with great attention to detail. We highly recommend MJ Nicholas Landscaping to anyone looking for high-quality landscaping and hardscaping work. read more

This company installed a retaining wall and sections of 6- and 4-foot white vinyl fencing for me as well as two gates. Overall I was very pleased with the process from my initial outreach to the quoting process to the actual work itself. The best part was I had been having trouble getting one company that would do both the wall and the fence and these guys did it no problem. The quote was very reasonable and they provided a very detailed estimate. Overall they were by far the best company I had communicated with during this process. I intend to hire them again in the future. read more

So it's no secret that MJ Nichols is the higher priced crew around the area. That being said, they are definitely worth the money. They don't send out 1-2 guys to do your lawn, they send out a crew of 3-4, so one is cutting grass, 2-3 others cleaning up the grounds and edging. We had to recently re-mulch our entire property and they much of had 12 crew out here. And the kicker - it's started to rain for an hour. They hung out, ate lunch and waited out the storm and continued working as soon as it passed. I was impressed! We will stick with them for this year and see how it goes.thr one negative I would say is that they don't keep the lawn mower blades sharp. Everytime they cut, there is a little brown hue left over. Usually due to dull blades. But they are generally great, you get what you pay for. read more

The crew at MJ Nicholls did a fantastic job installing a patio and small fence for us! The patio is quite large, using pavers. They did a beautiful job with the installation and turning our backyard into our dream space. Due to neighbors having fences, we only needed on side to be fenced off to make the backyard secure for our dog. It was a tricky job to install three gates across the front for us, but the crew did a great job. Matt was very easy to work with, answering our many questions throughout the process. We are so glad we went with this team! read more

I had my lawn leveled and hydro seeded last summer with this company - spent over 3k. my husband and I followed the instructions exactly regarding watering, etc. and our grass never fully grew back. over the fall and winter we noticed, an unusual amount of puddles in the middle of our yard. Finally, this late winter almost spring, we brought in two other contractors for a second opinion, and were told that this company that did our landscaping used pebble, fill topsoil and overpacked it so it was no wonder grass could not grow. Unfortunate. When I share this issue with them, I was told that we only have a 30 day guarantee after the topsoil is put down which seems crazy since it takes longer than that for grass to grow. But they were willing to Hydro seed again for a lower rate. No thank you. read more

Our abutting neighbors hired Nicholls Landscaping to put up a fence. When the company ran into an issue, one of the workers asked if they could put up a small wall on our side to support the fence. In good faith, we agreed. Unfortunately, rather than building a small wall, they instead nailed boulders of wood into the ground exposed only on our side of the fence. As you can see in the pictures, they didn't even remove the blocks of cement from the old fence. The eye sore left in our yard is evidence that Nicholls Landscaping is unprofessional and has no regard for the neighbors of their clients. read more

MJ Nicholls took care of our fence, landscaping and patio. Wow!!! Matt came by to do measurements and gave us a timely, reasonable quote. Though the work didn't begin until months later, the quote stayed the same. The team is efficient. First round of fencing was done in one day. Second round of fencing, patio and landscaping took roughly 3 days. The team is precise, cleanly and we're very responsive. The work speaks for itself. Highly recommend this contractor to do your fencing, landscaping, hardscaping. We are so grateful! read more

This review is long overdue, so sorry for that MJN! We were looking to have our tiny front yard turned into an enclosed patio with some sort of foliage to act as a privacy barrier. We needed someone who specialized in masonry, fences and botany vs hiring individual contractors for each service. The only company that we could find in our area that fit all our needs was MJ Nicholls. The crew were speedy and their attention to detail was very precise (impressive because our yard is very tiny and challenging to work in). The project came out great and still looks awesome almost 2 years later. We constantly receive compliments on our patio and would highly recommend using MJ Nicholls to anyone looking for a patio, fence, privacy/shrubbery. read more

We needed someone to loam and seed our lawn and MJ Nicholls came to the rescue. They were able to fit us into their schedule and showed up on time and as promised. The lawn looks great and we are so pleased with the work. Unlike other contractors, they don't leave you hanging with vague dates and times for the sake of keeping your business - they are able to concretely tell you when they are available and when they are able to get the job done. Well worth every penny! read more

We just completed a large backyard renovation/landscaping project with Matt and his team. Excavated the yard, added a large retaining wall, all new landscaping. They were great. SO fast (total project completed in just over a week). The guys were extremely hard working-- it was a complex project in a raised yard and they were hustling all day (rain or shine) to get the project done. It looks amazing-- better than I could have imagined. Matt was extremely responsive as questions came up and any "issues" were addressed in a timely manner. We got several quotes for the project and while this was on the higher end, they had ideas to get past several "barriers" other companies were apprehensive about. We would definitely recommend working with Matt and his team on projects large or small-- superb work! read more

Patio Extension and Dry Well Installation -Estimate received the next day -Date to install was sooner than expected (within 2 weeks) -3 employees worked hard all day in 95 degree weather -Didn't like how the granite slabs were not cemented, made it appear unfinished because there were gaps -Emailed Friday evening about the slab concern -Monday evening the same 3 employees were sent back to fix it Only thing I can't speak to is if the dry well is functional. But the previous dry well this same company installed and it worked very well. Overall, happy with this job and would recommend this company. Btw this was my second time using MJ Nicholls. read more

Over charging, a lot... There wasn't any snow accumulated, they charge us for salting even without work actually being done; there was one day snow, they charge salting us two days in a row when work was done only once. Def not an option for anyone who's paying out of their own pockets. read more

Amazing service. Professional and reliable. Matt and his team were some of the best I've ever worked with.

They had a snow removal job at a condominium building across from my house. They plow the snow in front off my resident. I spoke with one of the worker and he said that it will be taken care off.they all left within 5 minutes and Left me with 3 feet of snow to remove on my own. read more

We had a lot of landscaping done from Matt Nicholls' company a few years ago. Three out of eight of the large scrubs completely died. He is refusing to replace these. I will not be using this company for any future landscaping. Clearly there was something very wrong with these brushes. read more

Nicholls Landscaping did an incredible job on our front path and patio last summer. I called them again this year to install a new gate and to do some fence repair. They came out quickly and did an outstanding job. I highly recommend this company for all your landscaping and fence needs. They are reliable, professional, competitively priced, and do fantastic work! read more

I recently had an in-ground pool built and due to the rocky soil, the pool contractor was unable to leave it grass-ready. I was referred to MJ Nicholls Landscaping and cannot say enough about how great of a job he and his team did. The team re-graded my yard, spread new loam, and hydroseeded the lawn. They also installed granite steps and repaired our irrigation systems. Their quote was very reasonable and almost half the cost of the other estimates I received. I highly recommend this company. Both Matt and Buddy were very responsive to my texts and emails. I would definitely work with them again. read more

I called a week ago for quite & never even got back to me. Either they don't give a shit or they are racist.

Michael Naughton with Nicholls Landscaping He built my retaining wall a few years ago and the place looked fantastic. We had some great barbeques overlooking Fore River and Hingham Bay. The storm on March 13th destroyed the retaining wall and a good part of my property. I contacted Mike and he came right down to survey the damage. He cleaned up the area the next day to make it safer while we worked on a plan to rebuild. Since he had done the work originally I preferred to have him do the rebuilding. He gave me a great deal and had the repairs done in a matter of weeks. Thanks to his integrity and hard work I enjoyed the 4th of July fireworks with family and friends from my again. read more

Overall fairly good work - bit disappointed w the stonework at some points. Price was good. Biggest problem was working with Mike - he was responsive and helpful, but at every step of the project something went wrong, mostly because he forgot or didn't realize what I wanted. The blueprint plans were rushed and late; the wrong plants went in then came out; the stonework estimate was half of the final invoice; the rounded pattern was not followed 100% (and now looks kind of wavy - again, not consistent with the blueprint). He was prompt at correcting these issues (except for the latter), but they never should have been issues to begin with. Bottom line: they do good work, and they do it well. Maybe this is my fault, but you should definitely have a list of all the things you want done (to the smallest detail) prior to getting an estimate. read more

Matt and team did a great job on our recent backyard project. We wanted to take down some fencing, rip up a section of asphalt, have loam brought in and leveled. My husband is handy but didn't want to tackle this job by himself. We emailed Matt for a quote on his website and he responded that same day. We made an appointment, he showed up exactly as planned and gave us a quote that night. Better still, we were undecided on how to use this new space. He quoted us two options, fully understanding our goals and limitations. His price was very fair for the work. He scheduled a date for the work to be completed and showed up on that exact day. He was right on time and we went over the project once more before his crew had at it. The crew was very good too. A couple of times they asked my husband for his opinion on their work and were more than willing to accommodate some of his requests. They wanted to make sure the job was done exactly right. It looks great, they left my yard and driveway in very neat condition, making sure everything was picked up and disposed of properly. Overall, a very professional experience. I had never met Matt or anyone from his company prior to this work. I would highly recommend this company if you're looking for a quality landscaper. read more

These guys are great. On time, fast working (less than 4 hrs)and very little disturbance to our lawn. When there was a problem with one of the heads, our technician came immediately and made the adjustment without issue. Highly! Recommend!! One guy patiently showed us how to adjust the time/date etc on the panel so we can control the sprinkler system ourselves. They even did our neighbors yard the same day. read more

We are so happy with the patio that Matt and his team installed in our backyard. The guys were here for two full days, and spent a significant amount of time cleaning up when they were done. They left everything immaculate, and our patio looks amazing! Matt was so great to work with, very responsive and super friendly. One day we hope to contact him again for landscaping! read more

He planted a tree in a row of existing Arborvitae to replace a dead one - and didn't bother to line it up with all of the others. This one sticks out like a sore thumb from the rest of the perfectly aligned batch o' trees. It drives me crazy and I'll be stuck with it for life. Shoddy workmanship. Wouldn't hire again. I cringe every time I look at that tree. Cringing now.......... read more

We used MJ Nicholls Landscaping for the first time last week. Our property was becoming overgrown with weeds since the beginning of the growing season. Leo was very easy to work with and communicated with us in a timely manner. The property looks fantastic after his crew was done. We will definitely be using them again! read more

MJ Nicholls Landscaping LLC did a fabulous job on our landscaping project. Leo gave us a fair price and outstanding quality. His team of highly skilled landscape workers were efficient, hard-working, respectful, and responsive to our requests. Our yard is difficult maintain due to the backyard slope. His crew left our yard well-trimmed, mulched and clean. We will certainly hire them again to help with our yard work and cleanouts. We highly recommend MJ Nicholls Landscaping LLC and will certainly use them in the future. read more

I met with MJ Nicholls to discuss a backyard renovation. They were very knowledgeable and had some great ideas for what we could do with my relatively small space. The end result was a complete rehab including removal of a tree, demolition of some old asphalt, regrading the yard, installing a patio with pavers, adding granite steps, and hydro-seeding the lawn. It came out excellent. They worked in conjunction with a deck rehab that was going at the same time and assisted with digging and installing the sonotube footings. Highly recommended. read more

Ok, I NEVER leave Yelp reviews, but I was so impressed with my recent landscaping service that I had to. Our property looked horrible and the team at MJ Nicholls made it look awesome.

They did such a good job and we will definitely work with them again! read more

We are so pleased with the work done by the crew at MJ Nicholls. It started with a quick response and a fair estimate,work starting when they said it would start.

Matt and crew did an excellent job on our patio. Responded quickly for a request for a quote, (most don't, that's usually a battle in itself these days, not matter the size of the job). I asked how long it would take and he said 5 days, it was done in 5 days. Any problems that happened, he fixed the issue immediately and did NOT make a B.F.D. about it. A piece of his equipment broke, I new one came immediately, the irrigation system was dug up, he came and he fixed it immediately, the grass seed was washed away in a huge rain storm before it set, he came and did it again, without hesitation. I highly recommend the company and will definitely use again. read more

Hands down best landscaping company I've ever worked with!! We bought a house in November 2017 which the landscaping had been severely neglected. We spent 12 hours a day every weekend this past summer trying to clean it up. As soon as we would get a tiny section done, 15 new plants/weeds had grown in its place. We called numerous landscaping companies to get us an estimate to rip it all out and start over new. Not one company would either return our calls or come out. I turned to yelp and found this company. Matt got back to be right away about setting up an appointment for a quote. The day we scheduled, about 15 minutes before he showed, the sky opened up and a big old storm rolled in. I expected that he would call and reschedule but he showed up anyways, looked at the front, sides, and sides of our driveways in the rain. Got back to us the next day with a quote and we scheduled for the first available. A crew of three guys showed up on 10/8 at 7am and immediately got to work. They worked straight through until 5:30pm. My house is literally unrecognizable!! They worked so diligently and I couldn't have ever expected the result to look like this! I'm beyond ecstatic that we found such an amazing company. 1 day in and everyone in our small town has stopped to compliment us on how sensational our house and property look. If you have doubts, don't. Matt and his crew KNOW their stuff!!! read more

Nicholls' landscaping removed a chain lint fence with great care to not disrupt a gas line that goes from the street to the house, and to protect our driveway. Nicholls' had all of the equipment needed for such a big job- bob cat, dumpster and so on. The next day they trimmed all our overgrown bushes in the front of the house, weeded, edged and mulched. This area was a jungle and now it looks beautiful. I think the value of my house was improved by thousands of dollars from the work Nicholls' did. The cherry on the top was a small pile of leaves had been left behind accidentally, but at some point in the day someone from the company came back and removed the leaves!!!! Now that is attention to detail! read more

Great work! Very responsive, professional and friendly! Our yard, walkway and landscaping looks gorgeous!

We wanted to convert a poor looking plot into a patio area. Got a nice design including large tile slabs, gravel, grass, flowering plants, shrubs. Several thousand $$. This was a lot of work as the whole plot needed to be dug up, leveled, layered with different soils, then finished off with the tiles, grass, plants. Everything was fine except the plants. Half of them looked dead when planted in the late fall, and those didn't come back in the spring. Mike came out in June, said the plants were under warranty and would be replaced. Came out again in the fall, said the same thing. Despite repeated emails and phone calls those dead plants never did get replaced. I'm out several hundred dollars for plants for no reason since they were under warranty; Nicholls just couldn't be bothered to make good on the contract. Will not use them again. read more

We have now had the company come three times in an attempt to successfully hydro seed our lawn and all three attempts have been unsuccessful. Each time they have been an absolute nightmare to get ahold of and has taken weeks for them to return. The process started at the end of April and is now mid-July and we still do not have the grass in our yard that we were hoping to enjoy this summer. read more

We were in need of some TLC on our property - bushes had overgrown, etc. Leo was great to work with - responded to emails quickly. His crew showed up on a Tuesday morning and went to work! They were professional and pleasant - the yard (front and back) and driveway area looks absolutely amazing! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone! read more

Hands down one of the best customer service experiences with Matt and his crew at MJ Nicholls Landscaping. The quality of their work, expertise, and foresight was worth every penny. We had some issues with the Hydroseed due to the extreme heat this summer, and Matt stood by their product and service and revisited the yard to ensure some sunny areas were reseeded due to the weather. Would recommend this crew for any job big or small and again wonderful customer service! read more
