We pre-walk sites to tag hydrants, bike racks, planters, and curb cuts so nothing gets damaged. Our crews train on low-noise operations to respect neighbors during early mobilizations.

Services

Plowing & Snow Push

We clear curb lanes, alleys, loading zones, and residential approaches with compact plows and articulated loaders. Snow is stacked where it will not block signage or pedestrian views.

De-Icing & Anti-Icing

Brine pre-treatments stop bond on concrete, while granular melts target shady stoops and slopes. Material logs track usage for sustainability and budget control.

Sidewalk & Stair Care

Sidewalk teams focus on steps, ramps, bike corrals, and crosswalk mouths to prevent slips. We use fine-grain melts that reduce scatter into landscaping.

Snow Relocation

When piles grow, we relocate or haul them during off-peak hours to keep access clear.

Refreeze Patrols

We patrol after hours to treat meltwater that refreezes near drains and shaded walls.

Our Process

Pre-Storm: we map your Alton, Illinois block, mark hazards, pre-stage melts, and set communication windows. During Storm: we cycle priority loopsentrances, crosswalk mouths, garage ramps, loading dockskeeping them open while accumulation continues.

Documentation: every visit is logged with times, materials, and photos so you have proof for boards, insurers, or city inspectors.
