City-smart snow response
City winters in Lykens, PA demand precision: we plow clean lines, shovel every entry, and salt smart so shoppers and commuters stay safe.
We pre-plan alleys, loading zones, and curbside parking so nothing is blocked.
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.
We greet tenants and managers with quick updates, not loud engines.
GPS dispatch plus before-and-after photos.
Fully insured crews with background checks and ID badges.
We match equipment to the block: compact plows for tight lanes, walk-behind blowers for long sidewalks, and hand crews for stairs and vestibules.
Attention to window wells, planters, and signage bases.
Drainage checked so melt runs away from doors and elevators.
Docks, freight corridors, and alley access cleared early.
Follow-up sweeps in drifting or shaded areas.
City winters reward planning: we set triggers, map stacking, and assign backups so there is no guesswork when flakes fall. 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. We inspect for downspouts draining across walks, shaded black-ice zones, and spots where salt might scar metal thresholds, then adjust blends and techniques. 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.
