Services
Landscape Design
Our landscape design service creates customized outdoor spaces that balance aesthetics with functionality. Using 3D renderings and site analysis, we develop plans incorporating hardscapes, water features, and plant selections tailored to New England climates. With over 30 years of experience, our certified designers consider drainage patterns, sun exposure, and client preferences to maximize property value while ensuring long-term sustainability through proper material selection.
Tree Care
Professional tree care services protect property investments through preventive maintenance and hazard mitigation. Our Massachusetts Certified Arborists perform precision pruning, cabling, and disease management using industry-standard equipment. Regular maintenance prevents structural failures while promoting healthy growth patterns. Emergency storm damage response ensures safety compliance for trees near buildings, driveways, and utility lines while stump grinding eliminates pest habitats from removed trees.
Snow Removal
Commercial and residential snow removal services utilize a 20+ vehicle fleet with GPS tracking for timely response. Services include driveway plowing, parking lot clearing, and roof snow removal using specialized equipment. Anti-icing treatments prevent refreezing while backup crews ensure service continuity during prolonged storms. Our 30-year track record demonstrates capability handling both small residential properties and large commercial complexes throughout MetroWest Massachusetts.
Gutter Cleaning
Professional gutter cleaning prevents water damage to foundations and roofing systems. Our technicians use industrial vacuum systems to remove debris without ladder risks while inspecting for structural damage. Regular maintenance prevents ice dam formation in winter and controls pest infestations. The service extends roof lifespan by preventing water backup while protecting landscaping from erosion caused by improper drainage patterns.
Hardscape Installation
Hardscape construction creates durable outdoor living spaces using natural stone, pavers, and concrete. Our ICPI-certified installers construct patios, retaining walls, and walkways with proper base preparation for long-term stability. Decorative elements like outdoor kitchens and water features enhance property aesthetics. Quality control measures include geogrid reinforcement for walls over 4' height and engineered drainage solutions to prevent frost heaving in New England's climate.

I have used Dave;s Landscaping over the past 10 years for placing crushed stone around my above ground pool to trimming trees and Lawn maintenance. I currently use Dave's for Lawn Maintenance and mulching. From the president Dave Rykbost down to all the workers of this company are very friendly and pay attention to detail like it was their own lawn. Dave's is reasonably priced and one of the best managed companies in the business. I highly recommend Dave's landscaping.

Dave's Landscape does a great job plowing my driveway in the winter, but also has done hardscaping that solved a very difficult problem with a retaining wall. I highly recommend Dave's Landscape for any landscaping problems. They are undaunted by the challenges; they are responsive; and they do quality work.

I have used Dave's Landscaping for the past 3 years for mowing my lawn in the summer and plowing my driveway in the winter. I have been very impressed with all of the staff: from the landscapers to the snowplow drivers to the office staff, everyone is helpful, considerate, and respectful. It has been easy to renew my year services and pay my bills - it's all handled online, and I get an email confirmation. I would highly recommend using Dave's Landscaping.

Dave's tree guy, stump removal guy as well as the hard landscaping guys are very professional, experienced and they know what they are doing. Most of my projects were difficult but they came up with innovative solutions and got all of the work done in time with very high quality. I am really impressed with Dave's landscape Management company. They are professional, reasonable and deliver high quality results.
They did a retaining wall, install lamp posts along my really long driveway, got rid of a whole bunch of trees and removed the stumps. I am really happy with how everything turned out to be. I RECOMMEND THEM VERY HIGHLY

We could not be happier with the results of our landscape project. Dave's team are very professional, they provide excellent service and are extremely competent. Our project required the installation of four water sprinkler zones, the replacement of a drainage system, clearing and mulching along a large area of our backyard, turf removal from our front yard, sod installation and seeding a large section of our front lawn.
They did excellent work on all fronts. They have all of the required equipment. They mulched the cleared area in our backyard by delivering the mulch using a chain of flexible hoses attached to a pump truck. Dave was very responsive to our needs as the project proceeded and his company completed the job on time. I highly recommend hiring Dave's Landscape Management for all of your future landscape requirements.
