Our approach

One number.
One crew.
One standard.

Self-performed.

Construction, maintenance, snow and irrigation are all run by Unity crews on Unity trucks — never subbed out and re-marked up.

Documented.

Service tickets, photo logs and event reports for every visit, every storm and every change order. No 'trust us' — we hand you the file.

Year-round.

Same faces in July and January. The route manager who knows where your sprinkler valve is, is the one who knows where the salt pile goes.

Engineered to last.

Properly compacted base, code-correct drainage, the right plant in the right zone. We build for the property in ten years, not the photo on day one.

09

Drainage & Grading

10

Sod & Lawn Renovation

Slit-seeding, sod installs and pH correction for the lawn you actually wanted.

Engagement

Five steps.
No surprises.

The same process whether you're calling for a single patio or a fifteen-property snow contract. Written, scheduled, signed.

  1. 01

    Walk the site

    Together. On your property. We measure, photograph and ask the questions other contractors skip.

  2. 02

    Written scope

    A line-item proposal — no allowances, no surprises. You see materials, quantities, crew and schedule.

  3. 03

    Schedule the work

    A single calendar, a single point of contact. You know who is on the truck and when.

  4. 04

    Build and document

    Daily photos, change orders in writing, on-site supervision every day work happens.

  5. 05

    Walk and warranty

    Final walk-through, punch list closed, 5-year workmanship warranty in your hands.

FAQ

Questions we hear,
every week.

Don't see yours? Ask it inside the quote form — we read every line.

Do you self-perform, or sub the work out?

Everything you see on this page is self-performed by Unity crews. The only exceptions are specialty trades like masonry chimneys, gas plumbing and electrical — and only with our long-standing licensed partners.

What towns do you serve?

+

Worcester County and the MetroWest corridor — Grafton, Shrewsbury, Westborough, Northborough, Hopkinton, Sutton, Upton, Millbury, Sudbury, Wayland and surrounding municipalities.

Do you take both residential and commercial?

+

Yes. Roughly 60% commercial / 40% residential. Each side has dedicated route managers, dedicated equipment and dedicated reporting — they do not share crews mid-day.

Are you licensed and insured?

+

Massachusetts pesticide-licensed, MA cross-connection certified for backflow, ISA-certified arborists on staff. $2M general liability, full workers' comp, auto on every vehicle. Certificates emailed before any work starts.
