Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Albany County NY
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Albany County NY
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Albany County NY. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our fleet is optimized for large-scale efficiency. We do not simply push snow to the side; we assess your property to determine the most efficient stacking locations that preserve parking spaces and keep lanes clear. Utilizing heavy loaders and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure high-traffic areas are cleared rapidly.
Our commercial process includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We identify curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the snow arrives to prevent infrastructure damage.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans allow you to set snow depth triggers (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for automatic deployment.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We prioritize main distinct thoroughfares and fire lanes to ensure open routes for all traffic.
Protecting Your Home and Family
Waking up to an inaccessible driveway or a dangerously loaded roof is a frequent local issue, but it is not inevitable. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our large-scale operations to your home. Unlike independent truck services, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where hazards are controlled. Basic rock salt often loses efficacy in extreme Albany County NY sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments tailored to current temperature metrics.
We deploy multiple chemical and brine solutions:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, causing less damage to concrete and landscaping.
- Treated Salt Blends: To increase traction immediately while the chemical reaction melts the ice bond.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can apply anti-icing liquid before the storm hits, preventing the snow from bonding.
Precision Driveway Plowing
We utilize tools optimized for driveways. While we have industrial equipment for big properties, we also utilize nimble plow trucks and snow blowers for residential access to prevent turf damage.
Our operators are experienced in clearing without damage, ensuring you have clear access. We also offer driveway mapping, safeguarding surfaces.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Albany County NY, excessive accumulation can collapse roofs. As snow accumulates, compresses, and absorbs rain or ambient humidity, its density increases.
If the structural limits are surpassed, catastrophic collapse can occur.
- Physics of Snow Load: The snow load is determined by the size of the roof, depth of the snow (D), and density of the snow ().
- Fresh powder may weigh 3-5 pounds per cubic foot, but compacted, wet Albany County NY snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We use non-destructive methods. Instead, we use non-abrasive roof rakes and, for flat commercial roofs, snow blowers to remove the bulk of the weight without causing leaks.
This service is vital for preventing ice damsridges of ice that form at the edge of a roof that prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
