Commercial Snow and Ice Management
Hamilton receives significant quantities of snow every year. Winters in this region involve snow storms and heavy, wet snowfalls. While Hamilton winters are picturesque, they are also a safety hazard and can lead to property damage if snow and ice are not promptly addressed.
However, clearing walkways and parking lots can be time-consuming, backbreaking work. That’s why leaving this vital service to the professionals is best. Hiring a commercial snow removal and salting service is the best way to handle snow accumulation.
Hamilton’s by-laws state that freezing rain and snow must be cleared within 24 hours. At JW Landscaping, we provide professional snow/ice management to all commercial buildings, which is done within that 24-hour mandate.
We will meet you at your location and assess your needs. Our services are tailored to each business’s specific needs, rather than providing a one-size-fits-all package.
Why is snow removal important?
There are several reasons snow removal is essential. Aside from the safety factor, it reduces customer irritation, the potential for lawsuits, and property damage.
Avoiding Lawsuits by Keeping Areas Safe
Snow removal and deicing is vital because it removes the potential for an accident. Removing it ensures outdoor areas such as parking lots and walkways are safe for customers and employees visiting your location.
People can slip, fall, and experience severe injuries if ice, snow and slush are left unmanaged. Businesses can be liable for any accidents occurring on their premises due to negligence.
Prevents Black Ice Accumulation
Snow removal additionally helps prevent black ice during thaw. Placing salt/snow melt on walkways and parking lots inhibits ice formation, making these areas safer once the snow has been ploughed.
Prevents Snow Accumulation
Snow isn’t a one-and-done experience in Canada. While it may melt, eventually, it is here to stay, and there will be more. Not removing it creates an accumulation which can freeze over. Once frozen, removing the snow is not an easy task. Therefore, it is easier to remove it after each snowfall. By being diligent, you will save time and money.
Creates Accessible Entrances and Exits
Cleared pavement also makes your business more accessible. Manoeuvring around snow or avoiding ice is frustrating. Furthermore, customers become irritated when exiting their vehicles if they are forced to climb or avoid large snowbanks. Removing it will keep customers happy and keep them coming to your store.
Reduces Property Damage
Immediately removing snow and ice preserves your landscaping and ensures it can survive the harsh winter temperatures. Removing snow from plants, shrubs, and grass can help them thrive come spring.
Removing them before freezing keeps plants safe and provides a better-looking property during spring. Furthermore, snow appears dirty after lingering for a few days. This aspect decreases the visual appeal of your property.
Commercial Snow Removal Services
Freezing snow, ice accumulation, and cold temperatures can affect daily operations. The worst-case scenario results in property damage or accidents occurring on your property. Therefore, proper snow and ice management is imperative to prevent adverse consequences for your business.
It ensures that visitors and employees have easy access to your location, reducing the potential for accidents throughout the season.
Commercial Snow Removal Services We Offer
JW Landscaping’s fleet is prepared with exceptional snow removal tools. Customer satisfaction is our biggest priority, and as such we only use the best quality shovels, trucks, and snow blowers for snow removal. Furthermore, our equipment can handle even the toughest Hamilton ice storms and blizzards.
Snow Ploughing
When the next big snowfall hits, don’t allow it to create downtime for your company. Our experts will plough parking lots and open spaces. We will clear your walkways and sidewalks to increase foot traffic.
Deicing
Freezing temperatures quickly generate icy nightmares. Black ice is difficult to detect visually and can provide a slick surface. It can pose a safety risk, resulting in injuries and potential lawsuits. Our team can apply rock salt and fast-acting deicers to clear parking lots and walkways to keep them safe.
Emergency Services
Sometimes, bad weather can come quickly, leaving little time to prepare and react. Avoid that middle-of-the-night scramble by being proactive. Our experts provide assistance when our customers require it the most. Our clients trust us to be there when needed to deal with snow removal, and we never disappoint.
Snow Hauling
A busy winter can provide snow build-ups. When this happens, companies eventually see large mountains of snow occupying their parking lots. Large piles remove space for potential customers to park and appear unsightly.
By providing snow hauling services with plough trucks and other heavy equipment, your property is quickly cleared of snow piles allowing your customers to park freely.
Benefits of Hiring a Commercial Snow Removal Service
There are many benefits to hiring a professional snow removal company. While some are obvious, there are other factors that many companies fail to consider.
- Increases safety: Excessive snow and ice are dangerous. It is hazardous to those visiting your location as well as during the removal process if the proper technique/equipment is unavailable. Professionals are available to help everyone stay safe during winter.
- Work is hassle-free and prompt: Removing snow requires shovels and other items. It can be tedious. Depending on the property’s size and snow quantity, it can take hours to remove it properly. Hiring professionals saves you energy and time as their specialised equipment can get the job done promptly and well.
- Count on high-quality results: Depending on the size of your property, it may not be possible to remove the snow yourself and attempting to do so might provide subpar results. Having it done professionally gives you great results with the best outcome. Your property is cleared without a trace of snow.
- Visually clean appearance: While snow-covered landscapes may sound picturesque, they can reduce the aesthetic appeal of a property with dirty snow, tire tracks, footprints and slush. Experts can come in and clean up existing snow, providing superior curb appeal.
- Cost and time-effective: Companies will not need to invest in expensive snow-clearing devices. Also, removing the snow by yourself costs large properties more money and time.
