Our process, step by step
Before each forecast, we complete a site-specific checklist: note drains, stage salt, and assign crews to zones. Coordinators monitor pavement temps and adjust routes hourly.
When ice threatens, operators move with pre-set run cards. Edge guards stay safe near landscaping to avoid damage. Foot teams fan out to walkways and work in sync with plows so staff move freely.
During long events, we re-pass critical areas every 60-90 minutes. Melt is refreshed where shade invite refreeze. We log proof each visit so you verify exactly where we focused.
Once accumulation stops, we run a final sweep to push back piles, melt stragglers, and deliver a recap with time stamps and follow-up plan. If wind will drift, we set a proactive touch to block black ice.
Safety and compliance
Safety drives our playbook. All team leads preps on melt chemistry, ADA access, and line-of-sight around pedestrians. We maintain cone lines in wind and maintain backup radios in case networks lag.
Municipal rules shape our pile placement. We avoid sightline loss and leave ADA ramps ready. Salt rates match foot traffic so grip stays reliable without runoff.
Insurance partners prefer us because photos deliver with timestamps, geo tags, and crew signatures. Should you request COIs, we send them fast and refresh them each season.
