Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Putnam County IL
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Putnam County IL
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Putnam County IL. 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 simply push snow to the side; we assess your property to maximize parking space that protect vehicle areas and maintain line-of-sight for traffic. Utilizing heavy loaders and skid steers for tight corners, 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 first flake falls to prevent infrastructure damage.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans allow you to set snow depth triggers (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for immediate action.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We maintain key lanes and fire lanes 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 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 reliability.
Snow removal is only one step; de-icing is where hazards are controlled. Basic rock salt often loses efficacy in severe cold. ABC SNOW applies calibrated spreaders and high-performance treatments optimized for local temps.
We utilize a combination 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 ice adhesion is broken.
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 heavy loaders for long lanes, we also deploy compact equipment for residential access to avoid surface harm.
Our technicians are experienced in clearing without damage, ensuring you arent left with substantial piles. We also offer staking services to mark driveway boundaries, protecting your landscaping and hardscaping.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Putnam County IL, snow load is a structural threat. As snow accumulates, compresses, and absorbs rain or ambient humidity, 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 weight (W) on a roof 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 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 use non-destructive methods. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for flat commercial roofs, industrial snow removal equipment to remove the bulk of the weight without damaging shingles or membranes.
This service is essential for roof safetyfrozen barriers that prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
