Who We Are

We are the city strike team of a national snow network, pairing local street knowledge with national QA. Every operator is insured, trained, and adept at close-quarter work. We arrive early, speak courteously, and keep noise low for sleeping neighbors.

Coaching spans curb control, melt calibration, ADA clearance, and scanning for urban trip risks. Storm desk keeps eyes on radar, transit delays, and bridge closures to reroute teams fast. Redundancies across neighborhoods prevent bottlenecks.

We serve storefront rows, mixed-use towers, brownstones, condos, co-ops, clinics, schools, boutique hotels, and logistics micro-hubs. Each site gets a micro-map noting drains, bike racks, hydrants, curb cuts, and canopy drip lines.

Services

• Sidewalk, stoop, and entry clearing with broom finishes and clean curb transitions.
• Alley, loading bay, and parking pad plowing with strategic stacking that preserves visibility.
• Melt is calibrated for pavers and stone; crosswalks and ramps get extra checks.
• ADA routes are hand-cleared and melt-dosed to keep traction without residue.
• Flexible plans: seasonal, per-event, on-call, and neighbor bundles.

Add-ons: haul-away for tight city lots, stair tower brooming, bike-rack clearance, and post-storm glass cleaning on request.

Why Choose Us

We blend scale and street-speed: national standards, local dispatchers, and neighborhood crews who know every alley. First passes fly out quickly to open doors, then we return for polishing and ice sweeps. Transparent scopes and photo proof keep billing honest and predictable.

Risk control sits at the core: cones, signage, melt calibration, and brooming near decorative surfaces. Brand protection matters: clean equipment, polite greetings, and tidy stack zones keep your frontage looking premium.

How We Work

Workflow: forecast watch pre-treat first pass detail pass melt reapply inspect proof. Surface-matched tools prevent scars and spalling. Local staging means we move faster than the storm.

Comms cadence: pre-storm notice, en-route ETA, mid-storm update, completion proof, and refreeze alert. Threshold-based dispatch triggers automatic rolls so you are not stuck waiting for approvals mid-storm.

Safety, Compliance, and Urban Care

We widen ADA lanes, expose crosswalk lines, and keep melt residue off stone. We log slip scores at arrival and departure, photograph hazards, and drop cones where sightlines shrink. All paperworkinsurance, permits, equipment checksstays current and ready for your building management. We roll back when temps dip to stop black ice.

Surface protection: poly edges near curbs, broom-first on pavers, melt calibrated for stone thresholds. Drain grates are opened so melt runs to the right spots; canopy drip lines are treated early. We keep hydrants, standpipes, and egress paths completely visible for inspectors.

Playbooks by Property Type

Retail playbooks prioritize walks, patios, curbs, then alleys. Hotels focus on porte-cochre loops, valet lanes, and luggage paths before secondary parking. Education playbooks secure loops, bus bays, and crosswalks immediately. Clinics get ramps, ambulance access, and reserved doctor parking first. Residences see stoops, drivelets, bin paths, and mailboxes handled with hand tools.

Communication flexes per property: retailers want pre-open photos; boards want concise status; hotels want late-night ETAs; clinics want ETA boards; residents want simple texts. Crew apps call out awnings, art, corrals, planters, and glass.

Strategy, Guarantees, and Upkeep

Plans set trigger inches, priority entries, stack areas, melt chemistry, and approval paths. Guarantees cover arrival windows, proof-of-service, and refreeze sweeps when temps dive. Angles and markers keep turf and stone safe.

Extended storms get mid-run clears; marginal temps get multiple sweeps. If haul-away is needed, we coordinate loaders, trucks, routes, and permitted dump sites. Drip zones are treated to stop icicle hazards.

Community, Environment, and Courtesy

Melt is dosed carefully, sweeping comes first, drains are protected, idling is limited. We reuse markers, recycle pallets, and keep engines tuned to cut emissions. We never block walks or spray storefronts.

Communication is always human: dispatch answers calls, route leads text when near, and follow-ups share photos. We can assign multilingual leads to match your staff or building preferences.
