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 prize punctuality, polite interactions with neighbors, and low-noise approaches at dawn.

Coaching spans curb control, melt calibration, ADA clearance, and scanning for urban trip risks. Dispatch monitors weather and traffic so crews avoid jams. Backup gear and crews are staged in multiple neighborhoods to avoid single-point delays.

We serve storefront rows, mixed-use towers, brownstones, condos, co-ops, clinics, schools, boutique hotels, and logistics micro-hubs. We map drains, bike storage, hydrants, ramps, and drip zones for precision clears.

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.
• ADA routes are hand-cleared and melt-dosed to keep traction without residue.
• 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.

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. Emergency infrastructure stays exposed and clear.

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. Brownstones and homes are cleared with hand tools for fine control.

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. We guarantee on-time first passes, evidence, and refreeze checks. Turf and hardscape are protected with markers, cones, and careful blade angles.

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.
