Snow Removal in Howard County, MD
Plowing, shoveling and salting for homes and businesses in Ellicott City, Columbia, Elkridge and the surrounding area.
Snow Removal You Can Count On
Snow is hard to predict in Maryland. Some winters bring a single dusting and others bring storm after storm, and the properties that get cleared first are the ones already on a contractor’s route. Patapsco Valley Lawn & Landscape provides plowing, shoveling, salting and ice management for homes and businesses across Ellicott City, Columbia, Elkridge, Halethorpe and the surrounding area.
Pricing depends on the size of your driveway or lot, how much salt it needs, and the severity of each storm. Once you accept your estimate, we add your property to our guaranteed service route, so you are on the list before the first storm instead of calling around for help that morning.
Routes fill up as the season gets closer, so request your estimate today to lock in your spot.

Snow Removal Questions
When should I sign up for snow removal?
As early as you can. We set our routes before the season starts, and customers who book early are added to our guaranteed service list. Calls made in the middle of a storm depend on whatever room is left.
How much does snow removal cost?
It depends on the size of your driveway or lot, how much salt it needs, and how heavy each storm is. Request an estimate and we will price your property.
When do your crews come out?
We monitor every storm closely and send crews out as soon as it is safe. For commercial properties, the amount of snow that triggers a visit and how quickly we respond are agreed before the season starts.
Do you salt and treat ice?
Yes. Salting and ice management are part of our winter service for homes and businesses, so walkways and lots stay safe after the plowing is done.
Do I need to be home?
No. Once your property is on our route, our crew clears it whether or not you are home.
