Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Scott County IA
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Scott County IA. 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 strategically map your property to maximize parking space 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 methodology includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We identify obstacles before the first flake falls to protect assets.
- 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 fire lanes to ensure emergency vehicles and customers have unimpeded access.
Protecting Your Home and Family
A snowed-in 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 property. Unlike independent truck services, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where hazards are controlled. Standard rock salt often underperforms in severe cold. ABC SNOW utilizes controlled salt applicators and advanced de-icing agents optimized for local temps.
We utilize a combination solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, causing less damage to concrete and landscaping.
- Treated Salt Blends: Enhances safety 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 use equipment appropriate for residential spacing. While we have heavy loaders for long lanes, 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 arent left with substantial piles. We also offer driveway mapping, safeguarding surfaces.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Scott County IA, 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 weight (W) on a roof is determined by the area (A), snow thickness, and snow mass per volume.
- Fresh powder may weigh 3-5 pounds per cubic foot, but compacted, wet Scott County IA 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 use non-abrasive roof rakes 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 safetyridges of ice that form at the edge of a roof that trap runoff. Ice dams can force water under shingles.
