Our Snow Removal Services In Howard County IN
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Howard County IN. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our machinery is equipped for high-volume snow removal. 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 wheel loaders with containment plows and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure critical spots remain open.
Our commercial process includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We locate obstacles before the first flake falls to protect assets.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Custom service contracts allow you to set snow depth triggers (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for immediate action.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We maintain key lanes and critical access routes to ensure emergency vehicles and customers have unimpeded access.
Protecting Your Home and Family
A snowed-in driveway or a roof with excessive accumulation is a standard Howard County IN challenge, but it doesnt have to be a burden. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our commercial contracts to your property. Unlike erratic “truck and plow” operators, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; de-icing is where hazards are controlled. Basic rock salt often loses efficacy in extreme Howard County IN sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments optimized for local temps.
We utilize a combination solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Functions where salt fails, gentle on hardscapes.
- Treated Salt Blends: To increase traction immediately while the chemical reaction melts the ice bond.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can pre-treat surfaces 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, protecting your landscaping and hardscaping.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Howard County IN, snow load is a structural threat. As wet snow increases density, its density increases.
If the weight of the snow exceeds the live load capacity of your roof structure, damage may result.
- Physics of Snow Load: The weight (W) on a roof is determined by the area (A), depth of the snow (D), and snow mass per volume.
- Fresh powder may weigh 3-5 pounds per cubic foot, but compacted, wet Howard County IN snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides specialized roof raking services. We use non-destructive methods. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for business properties, industrial snow removal equipment 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 trap runoff. Ice dams can force water under shingles.
