Who we are
Our SIMA-trained leads and insured operators use compact equipment and rubber edges to protect decorative city surfaces while keeping friction high.
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
Your entrances, ADA paths, and drive lanes stay clear with timed passes that respect peak foot and vehicle traffic.
- 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? Yes, brine pretreatments go down when dew points and temps show refreeze risk.
Can you haul snow off-site? Hauling is scheduled during low-traffic windows with backup gear staged.
How fast is dispatch? You receive ETA and progress updates automatically.
Deep-dive on keeping Urbana, IA city sites open
We develop block-by-block playbooks that define pretreat timing, plow order, sidewalk rotations, and valet-lane sweeps so no entrance waits.
Calibration charts in every truck keep spread rates consistent, protecting assets while hitting friction targets.
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.
If security spots a slick patch, they message our hotline and the nearest crew pivots for a fast correction.
Medical sites get redundancy with shadow crews during critical appointment blocks to protect patient access.
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.
Support trucks carry spare edges, belts, and hydraulic fluid so mechanical hiccups never stall a route.
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.
Pretreat: Brine trucks hit high-risk areas firstcrosswalks, ramps, shaded plazasso ice cannot bond; we log start and finish times for your records.
Photos capture condition snapshots mid-storm for real-time visibility.
Touch-ups: As temps fall or foot traffic polishes surfaces, we run micro-treatments on high-polish zones like crosswalks, bus stops, and valet lanes.
