A note from Jared
I’m Jared Cohen, the owner of A Cut Above Landscaping & Excavation. I started this business in 2016 as a junior in high school, with a mower and a goal of building something of my own. After graduating from Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School in 2017, I decided to turn that goal into my full-time work.
The early days were all about lawn care: mowing, mulching, trimming, and keeping properties looking their best. As the business grew, I invested in equipment, learned new skills, and took on more ambitious projects. Today, that work includes patios and walkways, grading, sitework, and excavation alongside the landscape maintenance that started it all.
I’ve always believed that every job deserves care and attention, regardless of its size. The most rewarding part is seeing an idea become a finished space that a customer can use and enjoy. That’s what keeps me motivated to improve and take pride in the details.
To the customers, friends, and supporters who have been part of this journey: thank you. Whether you’ve been here from the beginning or are getting to know A Cut Above for the first time, I appreciate the chance to earn your trust.
The A Cut Above story
2016
Jared began taking on lawn care jobs as a high school junior, building A Cut Above one property at a time.
2017
Graduation from Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School marked the move from a side job to a full-time business.
Today
The work now spans landscape maintenance, patios, walkways, grading, sitework, and excavation for Massachusetts properties.
The approach behind the work
From regular lawn care to a new patio or excavation project, the aim is simple: thoughtful work that makes a property more useful and enjoyable.
The details matter: a neatly maintained lawn, a carefully laid patio, or a site prepared for its next chapter.
A routine maintenance visit deserves the same attention and respect for the property as a larger construction project.
Good landscaping brings together appearance and purpose, creating functional outdoor spaces to enjoy for years to come.
Investment in equipment and new skills has made it possible to take on bigger projects and keep improving the finished work.
