Merlos Landscaping

Since 2001, all of us at Merlos Landscaping have been re-imagining Nantucket’s outdoor spaces with ingenuity and careful artistry. As a family owned business, we’ve created a close-knit culture of landscapers that don’t just construct or build – but express and elevate the land’s natural beauty. From full-service lawn care to off-beat garden designs, we aim to make a statement with every project, and always work within Nantucket’s many micro-environments to promote healthy spaces that last. Conception, installation, long-term maintenance – no matter which step of the process we’re on, we’re always working to complete your vision and enrich Nantucket’s native environment.
