Bay View Landscaping

Bay View Landscaping has been a family business on N Main St in Cohasset since 1997, by its own account, run by Jeff Bowes — the name on the company's site and on its Better Business Bureau profile. The work is lawn maintenance, garden care and landscape design, for houses and commercial properties around the South Shore towns it names: Cohasset, Scituate, Norwell, Hingham and Hull. The BBB gives the business an A+ grade, and a single Google rating stands at 5 stars. A fit if you want a local crew on a regular maintenance schedule close to home rather than a big-build contractor. Ask Jeff Bowes what a season covers — mowing, beds, spring and fall cleanups — and get the visit schedule and the price in writing before the season starts.
