There’s a lot to love about winter in Northampton, Massachusetts, but it comes with some challenges, too. The snow that covers the sidewalks and roads can pose a danger to pedestrians and drivers alike, and at home, that layer of snow in your driveway adds another chore to your list. Heavy snow on your roof can damage your home, while icy driveways and walks put your family and visitors at risk of a fall, ouch. 

Before you roll up your sleeves, call us. At Better View Landscapes, our complete line of landscaping services includes residential and commercial snow plowing, roof ice and snow removal & plowing, salting and de-icing, snow blowing, and more. We put our dedicated team and top-of-the-line equipment to work all season long to ensure your driveway and sidewalks are clear, safe, and usable. 

With years of experience in the Pioneer Valley, we have systems in place for clear communication, prompt scheduling and project completion, and high-quality work on projects of all sizes. Our personalized approach to every property ensures you get the snow removal services you need when you need them. Contact us to learn more about snow removal & plowing in Northampton and our full range of year-round landscaping services.

We offer this amazing full-care service at a low, fixed price!

Prices start at $795 for the whole season if booked before October 15th. 

The average snowfall around here is more than 40 inches a year. Instead of braving the bitter cold to shovel a driveway that you swear grew longer since the summertime, why not go Unlimited?

There’s nothing like the peace of mind of knowing you’ll always get snow service for snowfalls over 2” without having to call a snowplow company each time. Better View Landscapes can respond at the drop of a hat to care for your property during the rough weather of winter.

The fantastic benefits you get with our Unlimited Snow Plow/Blower service:

  • UNLIMITED visits per season*
  • Storm email text and Voicemail from us to let you know what the plan is before each storm. 
  • 24/7 operation—even holidays!*

  • Dedicated Snowline phone monitored during storms
  • Pre-storm email so you’re always prepared
  • New! Text message storm notifications are now available 
  • Polite, friendly staff eager and willing to keep you and your property safe

We stay glued to the storm reports and send out pre-storm emails so there’s snow emergency (get it?), and our new text message service keeps you informed when you’re on the go. With our Unlimited Snow Plow/Blower Service, we’re combining our passion for customer care and safety with year-round landscape maintenance.

Clients Appreciate Our All-Inclusive Approach and In-House Expertise

Our landscaping services are second to none in New England, but don’t take our word for it! Take a look at our reviews to see what our loyal customers have to say.

When we bought our home, the back acre had been cleared years ago but not maintained, so we had a thick patch of thorny growth and grapevine that made it impassible to the nearby forest. Initially we just wanted it all cleared, but Tory had some great ideas to make it into something far more beautiful. Now we have a meandering path through wildflower meadow, a fire pit, a fruit orchard, and a playing field that has completely changed our yard. Would highly recommend Better View for your design needs!

I’ve been working with Better View Landscapes for several years now.  They have a great system of communication by email. The work is done quickly and with attention to detail.  My lawn looks healthy and tidy.  I keep bees there, and Better View Landscapes uses only products that are not harmful to them.  I also count on Better View for snowplowing in the winter.  They’ve always gotten the job done well.  Highly recommended.

We have the equipment to manage spaces both large and small, and we work 24 hours a day, seven days a week throughout the winter (holidays included!) to make sure your sidewalks, driveways, and patios are clear and safe. We keep an eye on weather forecasts so we’re ready to go when the storms hit! Your complete satisfaction is our priority:

For larger storms, we may send out additional communication to ensure you know what is going on. We also have a dedicated snow line for our customers to use during snow events.
  • Readiness: Like any good athlete, we train! Prior to the season starting, our staff visits all of our sites to get familiar with the layout, and mentally plow the snow so they are ready when the white stuff flies. Our equipment is well maintained and serviced before the season starts and continually maintained during the entire season.
  • Responsiveness: When the snow, ice, sleet, freezing rain or even a blizzard does come, our staff is ready to get out and take care of your property. With all the storm prep we do and careful watching of forecasts, we are ready at the drop of the hat to take care of your property.

  • On-Site or Virtual Meeting

    Once we have determined that your project is a good fit, we will set up an on-site visit or virtual meeting, depending on your project. For design projects and more complex landscaping contracts, we will visit your property to gather information. If you require basic maintenance services, we will conduct an easy virtual meeting via Zoom to clarify the details before preparing your proposal.

  • Estimate

    For our maintenance services, we will prepare a proposal within 3 business days of our first meeting and send it to you for review and approval. Most initial design proposals will be ready within one business day of our initial meeting. Following this design concept meeting, we will prepare your agreement and pricing as discussed and send it to you for approval.

  • Your Custom Plan

    Once we have completed contract discussions, you can review and sign your design plan or care plan. We will request your installation deposit before scheduling work, and your design fee must be paid prior to beginning design work. Most initial design renderings will be ready within ten business days after your design proposal has been accepted, with a follow-up meeting(s) upon completion of the initial design plan. For landscape maintenance plans, we will provide you with an invoice in the week following each service visit, and payment will be charged against the card you have on file.

    For maintenance contracts, you can expect monthly follow-ups to ensure your satisfaction. For installation services, we will reach out to you after the work is complete to provide follow-up care recommendations and service.
