Who We Are
We specialize in dense Hickory Hills, IL corridors, mixed-use blocks, towers, and retail streets. Before storms, we walk your block to tag hydrants, bike racks, planters, and curb cuts to prevent damage. Our crews train on low-noise operations to respect neighbors during early mobilizations.
Expect proactive texts: mobilization, mid-storm updates, and completion times. High refreeze risk triggers overnight passes so entrances stay safe for the morning commute.
Services
Plowing & Snow Push
Curb lanes, alleys, docks, and approaches are cleared using compact plows that navigate tight turns. 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
Hand crews clear steps, vestibules, ADA ramps, bike corrals, and crosswalk entries with shovels and brooms. Fine melts keep landscaping protected.
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
Before snow, we map your block, mark hazards, stage materials, and set update schedules. During snow, we run loops hitting entrances, ramps, docks, and crosswalk entries repeatedly. Post-Storm: we scrape down, clear drains, open fire access, and treat for overnight refreeze.
Logs with times, materials, and photos give you proof for boards, insurers, or inspectors.
