Who we are
We are a national snow and ice team with urban specialists who understand tight turns, pedestrian priority, and the humidity swings of coastal Santa Barbara, CA.
Before winter advisories, we walk your site, mark drains, map priority doors, and document hazards so nothing slows service when alerts hit.
Reports with timestamps and photos arrive automatically after each service to satisfy risk, facilities, and tenant needs.
Services tailored to city properties
We keep storefronts, medical suites, offices, garages, hotels, HOAs, and event venues accessible during every stage of a storm.
- Lot and lane plowing: Curbs, ramps, alleys, garage entrances, and loading docks with edge detailing and pile control.
- Pretreat and de-ice: Brine pretreats and eco melt tuned to temps and humidity to prevent bond and refreeze.
- Sidewalk precision: Hand crews and compact units for storefronts, crosswalks, bus stops, and shaded walks.
- Snow relocation: Planned piles that preserve visibility and parking; optional hauling when capacity is tight.
- Storm intelligence: Live monitoring with proactive alerts when thresholds trigger deployment.

Property Manager, Mixed-UseFAQ
Do you pretreat before freezing rain? We schedule pretreats to prevent bond while minimizing waste.
Can you haul snow off-site? We plan stack zones and haul when piles threaten visibility or parking.
How fast is dispatch? You receive ETA and progress updates automatically.
Deep-dive on keeping Santa Barbara, CA city sites open
Your property maps include photos of hazards, drainage, and sensitive finishes, giving crews exact guidance when storms hit.
Each operator carries a digital route card with surface types, melt preferences, and notes from preseason walks.
Supervisors run verification loops during storms, checking crosswalks, bus stops, and garage ramps; they order micro-touch-ups where foot traffic polishes melt too quickly.
Communication stays tight: dispatch texts when crews roll, arrive, clear priority zones, and finish, attaching photos you can forward to leadership.
HOAs and multifamily complexes are split into loops, ensuring residents always have a clear exit while we respect quiet hours.
Parking and sight lines remain strong because we pre-plan pile zones away from hydrants, cameras, and signage; if capacity shrinks, we schedule off-peak hauling.
Sustainability is baked in: brine pretreats lower total salt use while keeping surfaces safe; logs capture product type, rate, and timing.
Seasonal clients receive mid-winter audits to tweak melt recipes, pile plans, and signage placement.
Because city microclimates shift fast, we carry alternate melt products to swap instantly, preventing slick spots on shaded pavers or breezeways.
If an incident inquiry lands, you answer with proof instead of guesswork.
City-ready checklist we run every storm
We confirm on-site contacts, gate codes, and access notes to remove friction before crews move.
Eco melt inventory is verified and balanced to match temps, humidity, and surface type.
Active storm: Plows and sidewalk crews run timed passes with curb-to-curb coverage, keeping ADA routes and main doors open; supervisors adjust sequences if traffic reroutes.
We check drains and slope points to avoid slush refreezing into ridges.
Completion packets with timestamps, melt details, and photos arrive automatically so you can forward proof instantly.
Review: We debrief with your team after major events, refining triggers, pile plans, and communications to shave minutes off the next response.
