Our process, step by step
Before each forecast, we complete a tailored checklist: note drains, stage salt, and assign crews to sections. Coordinators watch pavement temps and adjust routes hourly.
When flakes start, operators move with preloaded run cards. Edge guards stay conservative near curbs to avoid damage. Foot teams fan out to entries and work in sync with plows so staff move freely.
During long events, we re-pass priority areas every 60-90 minutes. Salt is topped where wind tunnels trigger refreeze. We log proof each visit so you see exactly where we focused.
Once accumulation stops, we run a closure pass to clean edges, treat slick spots, and leave notes with timestamps and follow-up plan. If wind will drift, we set a preventive touch to block black ice.
Safety and compliance
Safety drives our playbook. Every operator trains on melt chemistry, ADA access, and line-of-sight around delivery staff. We maintain cone lines in wind and keep backup radios in case cell coverage dips.
City codes guide our pile placement. We avoid sightline loss and keep ADA ramps ready. Abrasive mixes match foot traffic so traction stays high without runoff.
Insurance partners value us because photos arrive with time codes, locations, and crew signatures. If you need COIs, we send them fast and refresh them each season.
