Hired them on short notice this year for spring yard cleanup and they really came through, as always. Great job, prompt, and knowledgeable.

I ordered 6 yards of Pine Bark Mulch which was delivered the same day. The quality was excellent evenly shredded with no big chuck or foreign matter. Consistently top quality year to year. Friendly company from secretary to owner.

We used this company for our plowing services. The guy in charge could not be more abrasive. He knocked over a neighbors snowbank (albeit accidentally) then told her to F off or F you. There was definitely an F thrown out. Another time they never even showed up and when I called this is the response "my guys came. It's in my log book" me "uhm. no one came because I was out there from 8:30 to 11:00 shoveling the whole time".

Since someone logged this, it HAD to be true. He ended up taking off $25 for a $150-ish bill. Are you kidding me? I can't even explain how disgusted and revolted I am by this man. I could not wait for the winter to be over so I would never have to deal with such a vulgar character. Good luck to anyone who will deal him in the future. You'll need it.

I've used Yarkworks for a few things over the past 2-3 years: Spring cleaning, mulch, defining flower beds, and also repair of an ailing paved driveway. I am a big fan. Here's why: 1. Tom is great at communication. He gets back to you with a quote very quickly. 2. The job is done in a timely manner. 3. The job is done fully, completely, satisfactorily.done well! 4.

The price is fair. I find this is a professional, quality business. This isn't something always found in "the trades." I am impressed with the consistency, the commuincation, the quality. Tom Curry runs is a good businessman. I can appreciate that. I will look to him for future projects!

We've got nothing but great things to say about Yardworks and their crew. We received bids and proposals from a number of contractors for a large landscaping project for our yard last fall. The owner of Yardworks was patient and very accommodating when helping us choose a layout, hardscape material and landscaping, and their bid was well within our budgeted range.

The crew showed up on time and worked straight through the day. What we thought would be a three week project, was completed in seven days! The crew was respectful and cleaned up after themselves each day. The owner was on site every day of the project. We couldn't be happier. My husband owns a number of properties in the Somerville and Cambridge area and has used Tom Curry and his crew for years for landscape upgrades, snow removal, and patio installations. Yardworks is great to work with and is very responsive to our needs!

Wait, I have to give a star? You will note that the previous reviewers of this business live suspiciously close to ye olde company HQ. Either they are pals of the owner, or they are further evidence of the ravages of the opiate epidemic. We used Yard Works to service a business property-- landscaping and snow removal. We should never have held on as long as we did, but it wasn't my call, so.

We paid this company many thousands of dollars. From that experience, I am here to tell you that there is one thing they do exceptionally promptly and well: write invoices. They may show up 24 hours after a storm and then clear half of your parking lot, but fear not: the invoice will be in your inbox hours later. The Tom Curry referenced in the other reviews must be different from the guy we dealt with.

Our contact at this company apparently had a plaque on his desk that read "The customer is always wrong." Seriously folks, I don't make a habit of calling out service companies. These guys are bad, bad news.

Hire these guys! We recently had a gunite pool renovated and needed landscaping for the house, pool area as well as install a vinyl fence for around the pool. Tom worked with us to come up with a two toned fence that they installed and looks amazing. The landscaping is impeccable. We looked at four different landscape companies and Tom at Yardworks was easily the most responsive. His crew is awesome. You can't go wrong with this company. Hire them, you won't be disappointed.

Horrible Service! They will only communicate via email and become extremely defensive with you try to resolve issues (such as poor service). You can do much better with a different yard service and snow removal service. besides the fact they are overpriced!
