Residential Snow Removal

A one-stop location for customers to learn about our residential snow removal.

 

 

 Residential Snow Removal

  • What is this service?
    ACA is hired by properties during the winter to maintain walkways from snow and ice. It's our job to make sure these areas are cleared and hazard-free and remain that way until after the storm has passed. Our Snow Removal can service cemented path walks and driveway however we do not plow rock/gravel driveways.
  • What is actually being done during my service? 

    Each property has its own threshold for when we should be there to start clearing. This threshold ranges from trace to 3 inches. When a property is "trace", as soon as there is any accumulation on the ground, our teams will activate and begin their routes.  As walkways can become iced over and become a slip hazard, we will use ice melt salt as appropriate to help keep slick surfaces to a minimum.

    Terms associated with your visits:

    Property Check - A property check is a visit when the threshold isn't quite met. The crew should walk the property and look at all areas that need to be cleared and make sure thresholds weren't met, clear paths to doors, and apply ice melt where needed. 

    Snow Removal - Normal snow removal operations of clearing sidewalks, stairs, and doorways if the property has met or exceeded its threshold. All snow must be pushed and piled in designated areas. Lay ice melt in slick spots to keep slip hazards away. 

    Ice Control - Typically an ice control visit will take place after a previous visit and the storm has passed. These visits include checking the entire property for slip hazards due to ice. Iced areas are best dealt with by clearing as much ice as possible with a shovel and then laying down ice melt.  

    We work safely and efficiently to get properties done in a timely manner.
