Who We Are

We are the city strike team of a national snow network, pairing local street knowledge with national QA. Operators are vetted, uniformed, insured, and trained on tight-space maneuvering. 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

• Sidewalks and stoops polished with broom finishes and neat curb lines.
• We plow alleys and bays while stacking snow where it will not block views.
• Ice control tuned for pavers, concrete, and decorative stone plus black-ice monitoring at crosswalks.
• Stair, ramp, and ADA route detailing with heated shovels and gentle melt.
• Seasonal contracts, per-event dispatch, emergency call-outs, and micro-route options for neighboring clients.

We can haul snow off-site, sweep towers, clear racks, and even tidy entry glass on request.

Why Choose Us

You get national reliability plus crews who live the block. Rapid first clear followed by polish runs and melt rechecks. 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. Your curb appeal stays sharp because crews stay professional and stacking stays tidy.

How We Work

Sequence: monitor, pre-treat, clear, broom, melt, inspect, photo. Tools match surfaces: plows for pads, blowers for walks, brooms for pavers, rubber edges for delicate brick. 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. Auto-dispatch based on your thresholds removes delay.

Safety, Compliance, and Urban Care

Safety in the city means wider ADA paths, clear crosswalk lines, and melt dosage that avoids residue on polished stone. We score risk, photo hazards, and cone tight turns. Insurance and inspections are documented for building approvals. Refreeze sweeps auto-deploy when temps dive.

Surface protection: poly edges near curbs, broom-first on pavers, melt calibrated for stone thresholds. Drains stay open and drip zones get early melt. We keep hydrants, standpipes, and egress paths completely visible for inspectors.

Playbooks by Property Type

Retail playbooks prioritize walks, patios, curbs, then alleys. Hospitality routes clear porte-cochre lanes and luggage paths before lots. Education playbooks secure loops, bus bays, and crosswalks immediately. Medical sites emphasize ramps and ambulance bays. 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.

Residential Comfort

Homes receive quiet passes, broomed stoops, and soft lighting. We maintain package, rideshare, and pet paths so routines stay intact. Paver stoops get broom-first clears with minimal melt.

Traveling residents receive photo proof and quick checks after refreeze warnings. Route clustering accelerates ETAs and trims cost. We place turf flags and protect garden beds from stack creep.

Strategy, Guarantees, and Upkeep

We co-write a winter plan: trigger depths, priority doors, stack corners, melt preferences, and who approves extras. Guarantees cover arrival windows, proof-of-service, and refreeze sweeps when temps dive. Angles and markers keep turf and stone safe.

Long storms trigger mid-event cleanups; marginal temps trigger dusk and dawn sweeps. Haul-away is available with permits and route planning. Roof drip lines, gutters, and awnings are checked so icicles do not create sidewalk 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. Crew leads can align with your preferred language for clarity.
