Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Skagit County WA
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Skagit County WA
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Skagit County WA. 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 pile it haphazardly; we strategically map your property to determine the most efficient stacking locations that protect vehicle areas and keep lanes clear. Utilizing heavy loaders and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure critical spots remain open.
Our commercial process includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We identify curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the snow arrives to protect assets.
- 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 prioritize main distinct thoroughfares 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 standard Skagit County WA challenge, but it is not inevitable. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our commercial contracts to your home. Unlike erratic “truck and plow” operators, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing reliability.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where hazards are controlled. Basic rock salt often underperforms in extreme Skagit County WA sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments optimized for local temps.
We utilize a combination chemical and brine solutions:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, gentle on hardscapes.
- Treated Salt Blends: Enhances safety while the chemical reaction melts the ice bond.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can apply anti-icing liquid 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 prevent turf damage.
Our technicians are trained to back-drag snow away from garage doors effectively, 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 Skagit County WA, excessive accumulation can collapse roofs. 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 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 compacted, wet Skagit County WA snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We use non-destructive methods. Instead, we use non-abrasive roof rakes and, for flat commercial roofs, industrial snow removal equipment to remove the bulk of the weight without causing leaks.
This service is essential for roof safetyridges of ice that form at the edge of a roof that prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
