What Our Clients Say
robert lima jr
Very fair prices, friendly and professional at their jobs. I am very satisfied with the work they did on the property. Will definitely call on them for future work as well. Highly recommended!!!
Angela DiNardo
Henrique and his team are fantastic!!! They are very hard working and meticulous with their work. I called him to quote hydro seeding my front and back yard after putting in a pool last year. His pricing is competitive and best around. I could see grass after just 7 days! He built a retaining wall in the back and it completely framed my yard perfectly. He even helped me find an irrigation company that put in a sprinkler system. I cannot recommend Henrique enough, even my neighbors have used him due to his workmanship. He is also a super nice and trustworthy person. I will be calling him for any future projects I need.

Jacqueline Burman

Alexandra Bystock
Working with Contrast Landscaping was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. My experience with Henrique and the entire Contrast team was seamless; they were professional, communicative, and truly cared about bringing my vision to life. They allowed me to be flexible and thoughtful as we crafted the vision together. After our new construction in Cohasset, the property needed full restoration and grading, and Contrast transformed it beautifully. They handled every detail with precision and pride, turning a raw construction site into a finished, cohesive landscape that perfectly complements our home. The quality of their work, timeliness, and attention to detail exceeded my expectations. Henrique guided the process with expertise and genuine care, making everything easy and enjoyable. I’m beyond pleased with the final result and would highly recommend Contrast Landscaping to anyone looking for exceptional craftsmanship and a team that truly stands behind their work.

We had a new walkway installed on Sunday, June 1st. The installation crew were so friendly and polite, and their workmanship was truly outstanding. They put in long hours to complete the walkway on the same day, and the beauty of the finished project far exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much gentlemen!😀
Tyler Lawson
Henrique and his team made our patio, walkway, and fence dream come to life. This is our second project working with Henrique and he’s always been great to work with and is so detail oriented. Him and his team are always putting in long days and the work clearly speaks for itself. So thrilled with how everything came out once again!
Brion L'Heureux
We made the switch to Henrique and company last year. Couldn't be happier! The prices are always fair, the work is top notch and on time! Not only the basics but Henrique had great ideas on the projects we've wanted to do, can't wait!

Amber Newell
Henrique and his team did incredible work at our new home. He does the best work around at amazing prices and is FAST! This is the second patio that he has done for us and we've recommended him to everyone we know. Highly recommend contacting Contrast Landscape for any outdoor needs! Our patio was completed within two days and looks incredible. Once the lawn gets seeded and the rocks are swept up, it's going to look even more amazing.
Patrick Newell
Contrast Landscape just finished up a patio at our new house and it turned out amazing. This is the second patio that Henrique and his team have done for us and we couldn't be more happy with the results. We cannot wait to add the patio furniture and hang out here when the weather gets warmer. Highly recommend!!
