Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Lancaster County VA
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Lancaster County VA. 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 determine the most efficient stacking locations that protect vehicle areas and maintain line-of-sight for traffic. 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 identify obstacles before the first flake falls to prevent infrastructure damage.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans allow you to choose snow limits (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for automatic deployment.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We maintain key lanes 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 doesnt have to be a burden. ABC SNOW brings the top-tier service used in our commercial contracts to your home. Unlike independent truck services, we are a insured professional service, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only half the battle; de-icing is where safety is truly determined. Basic rock salt often loses efficacy in extreme Lancaster County VA sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments optimized for local temps.
We deploy multiple solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Functions where salt fails, 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 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 heavy loaders for long lanes, we also deploy compact equipment for residential access to avoid surface harm.
Our operators 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 Lancaster County VA, excessive accumulation can collapse roofs. As wet snow increases density, its density increases.
If the structural limits are surpassed, damage may result.
- 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 Lancaster County VA snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We do not use damaging picks or axes. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for flat commercial roofs, industrial snow removal equipment 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 prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
