Alex was very prompt and easy to communicate with. He is professional yet personable and transparent with the actual cost of the project. His honest appraisal and craftsmanship is very difficult to find these days and such we will be using him again in the future. Hats off to Alex and his crew. Thank you!

It seems rare these days to have people call you back when they say they would and show up when they say they would AND do an outstanding job. We couldn't be more thrilled working with this company and Alex.

The entire experience of working with BlackRock on our landscaping project was 100% top notch. Alex is a fantastic communicator and planner. He and his team completed our job quickly and with very high quality. We are very happy with how everything turned out and would work with BlackRock again on our next project. Highly recommended!

We needed some landscaping done in our backyard with new plants and mulch. BlackRock did a great job with this. Alex helped us along the way and was quick with communication. We are very happy with the results.

BlackRock did an outstanding job cleaning up our property. From leaf removal and cleanup to trimming our rose bushes and shrubs. It looks great. Could not be more pleased. Highly professional, clear estimate with detailed explanations of what they were going to do. Top notch all the way!

So happy I found this company to plow our driveway after a recent storm when our snowblower broke and everybody else was either booked, or over promised and no showed! Alex is very professional and courteous and showed up when he said he would to dig us out! He was honest about timing and availability for future plows and that is all we ask for.

This company is the best. My favorite part about them is the service. They keep an open line of communication so you’re able to talk to an actual person. I can just text Alex about what I need done and he takes care of it. They also do a great job. Thanks Alex!

Recently had Alex and his team at BlackRock Outdoor Living complete the season at our property. Alex is very clear, concise, professional, and communicative throughout the entire season. He showed up on time, provided honest quotes for every project, and truly stood out above the competition in our area. Don’t hesitate to reach out to BlackRock Outdoor Living for your property needs I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with the level of service you receive.

We just hired Alex for a Fall cleanup. His service was superior. He takes and returns calls on a near immediate basis. He explains the project scope and pricing in a clear and concise manner. He overperformed by showing sooner than estimated and finishing the project quick and professional. We definitely plan on using Alex on projects in the future.

i’d tried pushing my mom‘s gas mower from her house to mine uphill four blocks after mowing her lawn and that wore me out before I ever got to my lawn. Then it had to go back again. I’d always mowed my lawn in the Boston area but hired the neighbor boys down the street until they got too busy with sports the BHS marching band. My neighbor suggested Alex and he’s not only been mowing and blowing our hardscapes and street clean but carefully reattaching downspouts as needed at Mom’s and helping out by creating and mulching leaf piles near me as I gather and bag from locations I must. My three story sugar maple keeps us all busy!

We appreciated the quick responses received from Alex before, during and after project completion. He was very professional and informative throughout the process. We are very happy we could get on the schedule quickly for the excavation of the garden beds around the foundation of our home. The river rock color palette chosen works extremely well and adds a beautiful effect along the foundation of our property with its varying shades of color. After getting a quick rain, we can't wait to see the full wet look of the river rock because we can already tell the colors will be even more spectacular.

This young fellow is a great communicator and I wasn’t left wondering when he would arrive. He hustles and did a great job. For me, trimming is the most tedious work and Alex is an artist with the trimmer. My grass is dense and the first cutting could have been left like a hay field. But it was left in immaculate shape. Thank you for the pride you take in your work.
