Snow Removal Guide

FAQ

I can offer one flat price for the entire season so that you can confidently budget for the service. If you choose to pay per visit, the total that you will pay will depend on weather, which is unpredictable. Fill out this easy quote request form to get your price.

Most snowfall events require one visit. The number of visits will depend on the situation. The primary factors include:

  • the duration of the snowfall. If snow continues to fall over the course of multiple days, you can expect that I will show up on each day the snow is still falling. Light snows require one visit per day. Heavier snowfall may require multiple visits in a single day.
  • the intensity of the snowfall. Most days during which we experience snow, it's only a couple of inches or fewer. Occasionally, we get heavier snows. When that happens, it becomes necessary to plow multiple times (about 2-3 inches at a time). In that case, you will be charged for additional visits, as necessary.

Whenever there is accumulating snow, I show up and plow it.

Most snow removal happens in the early morning. Of course, the time of service will depend on the actual timing of the snowfall. For example, if the snow accumulates during the morning hours, then snow removal will occur during the daytime.

Yes, I also shovel sidewalks. I usually just use a shovel. In some cases, I may use a snowblower.

For a lower price, you may opt out of the shoveling and choose to receive driveway plowing alone.

Yes, and this service is included at no additional cost. When the snow is heavy enough (at least 2 or 3 inches), then I anticipate that you may get plowed in. If your street hasn’t been plowed, I’ll come back after a period of time to plow out the end of the driveway. I can’t anticipate the street plow’s timing exactly, so contact me if you’re plowed in and need to get out.
