Snow and Ice Management

Snow and ice can cause big challenges for your home or business. Our team of winter maintenance experts provide prompt and reliable services so you can focus on running your business rather than dealing with the weather.

You can rely on us for full-service winter care, even during the roughest months. Our service includes:

Property Assessment — We evaluate your property before the first snow has even fallen. This allows us to account for obstacles such as curbs, fire hydrants, and more. Later, when we come back to clear your property of snow and ice, we’ll have these hazards marked out so that we can clear the snow without causing unnecessary damage to your property.

Calibrated Equipment — Our snow and ice management equipment is properly prepared before every job. We monitor air and pavement temperatures in order to avoid over-salting. This protects ground-water and, by extension, the environment.

Now offering Salt brine – Salt brine is an effective liquid solution for fighting snow and ice on roadways. It is made from readily available materials – granular salt and tap water – and works to lower the freezing point of snow and ice. It can be used as a pre-treatment, anti-icing tool, as well as a reactive de-icing technique.

While granular salt alone lowers the freezing temperature of ice, it has to be wet for the chemical reaction to take place and melting to start. Putting dry salt down means you have to wait for premelting to begin – salt brine jumpstarts this process. Best of all, salt brine provides a cost-effective and time-saving solution to keep roads clear and drivers safe.

Many contractors and public works departments choose salt brine for winter maintenance due to its effectiveness, low production costs, and savings on granular material. In fact, most users reduce their annual rock salt usage by 30%!

BENEFITS

Save Time. Liquid anti-icing and deicers save your time during pre-storm preparation and post storm cleanup. With the prevention of hard bonding to the roadway surface and a jumpstart to cutting through snow and ice pack, post storm clean up time is drastically reduced.

Increase Service. The use of liquid anti-icing and de-icing solutions can help clear snow and ice in a more effective and efficient manner, cutting two or three days off post storm clean up.  This efficiency keeps the motoring public on the move with safer roads and provides a reduced cost of operations.

Be Kind To The Environment With Brine

You may have heard about the harmful effects of salt on the environment. It makes its way into area lakes and streams, jeopardizing the creatures who live there.

Traditional salt can burn surrounding landscaping, too, but brine is gentler on plant material.

Brine uses one quarter of the amount of salt as traditional rock salt, so it’s gentler to the environment.

One truckload of brine equals four truckloads of salt. You can treat a larger area with less salt per square foot.
