Our Snow Removal Process

01

Service Agreement

We agree on trigger depth (how much snow before we come), service scope, and pricing — seasonal flat rate or per-push.

02

Storm Monitoring

We monitor forecasts and dispatch crews as snowfall hits the trigger depth, prioritizing routes for efficient service.

03

Plowing & Blowing

Snow is plowed to designated areas or blown clear of driveways and walkways, taking care not to block mailboxes or fire hydrants.

04

De-Icing

Salt or sand is applied to surfaces after clearing to prevent ice formation, especially on steps and shaded areas that freeze quickly.

Snow Removal FAQ for Akron Homeowners

How often should Akron homeowners get snow removal?
Given Akron's lake-enhanced snowfall — akron averages 49 inches per year, more than cleveland, most homeowners benefit from snow removal at least once a year. Ice dam prevention and removal (November–March) often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Akron most need snow removal?
Brick bungalows and Craftsman homes in older Akron neighborhoods and Victorian homes in Merriman Hills and North Hill are the most common home types in Akron and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
What's a snow trigger depth?
A trigger depth is the minimum snowfall that activates your service contract — commonly 1, 2, or 3 inches. Below the trigger, the contract doesn't apply and you're responsible for clearing.
Should I get a seasonal contract or pay per push?
Seasonal contracts offer budget predictability and priority service in heavy winters. Per-push pricing is better in light snow climates where a few events per year is typical.
Do you offer salting services?
Yes. Pre-treatment (before a storm) prevents bonding. Post-treatment (after clearing) prevents refreezing. We offer both as standalone or add-on services.
When do you start clearing — after the storm ends or during?
For larger storms, we typically make passes during the storm and a final clearing pass after it ends. For smaller events, a single post-storm visit usually suffices.
