City-smart snow response
City winters in Decatur, IL demand precision: we plow clean lines, shovel every entry, and salt smart so shoppers and commuters stay safe.
We manage noise and timing for residents and shop owners who rely on clear walks at dawn.
Our culture is built on respect: clear communication with owners, careful edges near glass and landscaping, and quiet equipment choices for early morning pushes. We keep backup equipment staged within the city to avoid downtime if a machine needs service.
Reflective gear, cones on slick spots, and careful blade height near decorative pavers.
Reports delivered to your inbox for easy forwarding.
Documented safety checks on plows, blowers, and spreaders.
We match equipment to the block: compact plows for tight lanes, walk-behind blowers for long sidewalks, and hand crews for stairs and vestibules.
Hand shoveling, broom finish, and pet-safe melt where needed.
Drainage checked so melt runs away from doors and elevators.
Communication with building teams to time pushes with deliveries.
Follow-up sweeps in drifting or shaded areas.
We run quiet where we can, move quickly where we must, and always finish with clean edges and clear entrances. When ice threatens, we adjust blends; when plows push windrows onto your curb, we return to reopen; when temps swing, we sweep again so overnight refreeze does not surprise early commuters.

Our standard is usable, slip-resistant pavementnot just a pass with a plow.

Communication is part of the promise: ETAs before arrival, on-site updates during the storm, and photo proof when we finish.
We keep hydrants, bike racks, and bus stops clear so the block keeps moving. Accessibility matters: ADA ramps, tactile strips, and crosswalk entries get double sweeps; handrails are brushed so grip stays strong; shaded stairs get extra melt during temperature swings. After the storm, we walk the site: draining melt away from doors, checking for thin ice near gutters, and tidying pile edges so the block looks cared for.
