Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Alger County MI
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Alger County MI. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our machinery is optimized for large-scale efficiency. We do not simply push snow to the side; we assess your property to maximize parking space that protect vehicle areas and keep lanes clear. Utilizing wheel loaders with containment plows and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure high-traffic areas are cleared rapidly.
Our commercial process includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We locate 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 critical access routes to ensure open routes for all traffic.
Protecting Your Home and Family
A snowed-in driveway or a dangerously loaded roof is a standard Alger County MI challenge, but it doesnt have to be a burden. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our commercial contracts to your home. Unlike independent truck services, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing reliability.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where hazards are controlled. Standard rock salt often underperforms in extreme Alger County MI sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments tailored to current temperature metrics.
We deploy multiple solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Functions where salt fails, gentle on hardscapes.
- Treated Salt Blends: To increase traction immediately while ice adhesion is broken.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can pre-treat surfaces before the storm hits, making removal cleaner and faster.
Precision Driveway Plowing
We use equipment appropriate for residential spacing. While we have industrial equipment for big properties, we also utilize nimble plow trucks and snow blowers for residential access to avoid surface harm.
Our technicians are trained to back-drag snow away from garage doors effectively, ensuring you have clear access. We also offer staking services to mark driveway boundaries, protecting your landscaping and hardscaping.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Alger County MI, snow load is a structural threat. As wet snow increases density, its density increases.
If the structural limits are surpassed, damage may result.
- Physics of Snow Load: The weight (W) on a roof is determined by the size of the roof, snow thickness, and density of the snow ().
- Fresh powder may weigh 3-5 pounds per cubic foot, but compacted, wet Alger County MI snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- A roof with 2 feet of wet snow could be supporting tens of thousands of pounds of extra stress.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We do not use damaging picks or axes. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for flat commercial roofs, snow blowers to relieve structural pressure without causing leaks.
This service is vital for preventing ice damsridges of ice that form at the edge of a roof that trap runoff. Ice dams can force water under shingles.
