Fireman Design & Landscape

Fireman Design & Landscape takes on landscaping projects in Acton. Eric Mendoza runs the outfit with his brother Albert Mendoza who handles irrigation work. They cover commercial and residential jobs that include landscape design, irrigation installs, concrete additions and full yard builds. Eric started the company after his time as a firefighter and the two brothers have teamed up for over 23 years. The business holds a C27 license and keeps regular hours from six in the morning until six at night Monday through Saturday.

Customers describe Eric laying out designs that fit odd yard shapes and turning front and back areas into finished spaces. One job covered irrigation and concrete work that brought a full vision to life. Another project redid a front yard layout that had been hard to plan around and left the space looking better than expected. The same crew later handled a back patio on a repeat job and wrapped it up without dragging things out.

The team stays organized and shows up when they say they will. They roll with changes during the middle of a project and keep the schedule flexible for the homeowner. Work gets done in a single day on some jobs and the crew clears every scrap of dirt and debris before they leave. Pricing comes across as reasonable and communication stays straightforward from the first call through the final walkthrough.

Review topics keep coming back to the designs making sense, the crew finishing on time and the yards holding up well afterward. Repeat customers mention booking the same outfit for additional phases because the process stays easy even when ideas shift. Google lists a 4.3 rating for the company.

His team is professional, confident and hard working. I was very pleased with my design from start to finish.

“Absolutely loved working with Eric. Reasonable, organized, and timely. One of the best landscapers I’ve ever worked with. I’ve already recommended him to friends and family, and was so pleased with my experience that I wanted to share with others. On top of it, my front and back yard look incredible. He made my vision come to life, and offered many services from irrigation, to concrete and more. 10/10”

“Some Fiat with this company's wrap cut me and others off down road Highway 18 and was speeding down residential areas...How can you trust a company that breaks the law on the road?”

“Coming here for a couple years now and they just did my front yard and it came out way better than I thought it would the design plan actually made sense for my weird yard layout and they worked around my schedule no problem Already have them booked for next spring to do the back patio this time around every interaction has been really easy even when I changed my mind on a few things mid project they just rolled with it Somehow they finished in one day and cleaned up every bit of dirt and debris like they were never even there. I told my neighbor about them and she already called them for a quote she saw their truck there and flagged me down Long time repeat customer over here and I dont see that changing any time soon”
