Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Norfolk City VA
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Norfolk City VA
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Norfolk City VA. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our fleet is equipped for high-volume snow removal. We do not pile it haphazardly; we strategically map 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 high-traffic areas are cleared rapidly.
Our methodology includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We identify curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the first flake falls to protect assets.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Custom service contracts 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 large-scale operations to your property. Unlike erratic “truck and plow” operators, we are a insured professional service, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where hazards are controlled. Standard rock salt often loses efficacy in extreme Norfolk City VA sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW utilizes controlled salt applicators and advanced de-icing agents optimized for local temps.
We utilize a combination chemical and brine solutions:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, gentle on hardscapes.
- Treated Salt Blends: To increase traction immediately while ice adhesion is broken.
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 arent left with substantial piles. We also offer driveway mapping, safeguarding surfaces.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Norfolk City VA, 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, catastrophic collapse can occur.
- Physics of Snow Load: The snow load is determined by the area (A), depth of the snow (D), and density of the snow ().
- Fresh powder may weigh 3-5 pounds per cubic foot, but dense snow adds massive weight.
- A roof with 2 feet of wet snow could be supporting tens of thousands of pounds of extra stress.
ABC SNOW provides specialized roof raking services. We do not use damaging picks or axes. 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.
