Why Book Snow Plowing in Summer?
Why smart property managers lock in snow contracts in the summer months.
When the first blizzard hits, uncontracted businesses face long wait times, inflated rates and slip-and-fall hazards. Booking ahead of time ensures your property is prioritized before the first snowflake drops.
When you book in the summertime you get:
- Guaranteed response times: We will provide route priority during active winter storm months.
- Fixed pre-season rates: We will lock your price with zero emergency surcharges.
- Tailored site plan: We will also conduct a pre-winter site inspection to map curb zones, drains and hazards.
Comprehensive Commercial Snow and Ice Services
- Zero-Tolerance Plowing: Parking lots & drive lanes. Our heavy-duty fleet clears parking areas, access roads, and loading docks continuously throughout storm events to keep your operations running seamlessly.
- Sidewalk & Entryway Management: Pedestrian safety & liability prevention. Dedicated crews clear walkways, steps, and handicap ramps, treating high-foot-traffic areas with pedestrian-safe ice melt.
- Proactive Salting & Liquid De-Icing: Pre-storm & post-storm treatments. We monitor local weather 24/7 and apply liquid brine pre-treatments before freezing rain or snow binds to asphalt, alongside post-plow salting.
- Off-Site Snow Hauling & Relocation: Maximizing parking capacity. When heavy accumulation eats up valuable customer parking spots, we haul excess snow off-site or stack it safely out of view.

What types of properties do you service?

What are the municipal snow removal bylaws in Victoria and Saanich?
In the City of Victoria and the District of Saanich, municipal bylaws require property owners and occupants to clear snow and ice from sidewalks abutting their property by 10:00 AM following a snowfall. Failure to comply can result in fines starting at $125 per day plus liability for slip-and-fall injuries.
What is the difference between anti-icing (pre-treatment) and de-icing?
- Anti-Icing (Pre-Treatment): Applying eco-conscious liquid brine to asphalt before a winter storm prevents snow and ice from bonding to the pavement.
- De-Icing & Salting: Spreading rock salt or ice melt during or after a storm to break down existing ice accumulation and melt packed snow.
