Snow & ice management
Snow removal and ice management in Calgary
A snow contract is judged on the mornings nobody has to think about it. Clearing runs to a trigger depth agreed before the season, so the question is never whether today counted — it is only whether it snowed.
What gets cleared
Everything people walk and drive on.
Parking lots and stalls
Walkways and sidewalks
Entrances and thresholds
Fire routes and loading zones
Residential drives and steps
Windrows left by the city plough
Cleared before the morning, not after the complaint.
Commercial sites are done before opening and residential before the day starts. Ice control goes down on the same visit rather than as a second call-out, because the thaw-freeze cycle here does more damage than the snowfall does.
How it is set up
Agreed in autumn, not argued in January.
A trigger depth
The depth that brings us out, written down before the first snowfall so nobody is interpreting it at 5am.
Seasonal or per event
A flat seasonal rate for budgeting, or per visit if the site is small. Both are priced off the same site walk.
Ice control included
Sand or salt chosen for the surface and the temperature, since below a certain point salt simply stops working.
Snow that has nowhere to go
Piles get stacked where they will not block sightlines or drain across a walkway. Hauling if the lot runs out of room.
