What's Included

What You Can Get

Cleared once after a storm, or on a plan for the whole winter. Tell us the property and we'll quote a schedule that matches how much snow it actually gets.

  • The core of the job

    Driveway & Walkway Clearing

    Snow cleared from the driveway and walkways after a storm, so the property stays usable through winter.

    • Cleared to bare pavement where possible
    • Timed to storm activity
    • Residential and commercial
  • For the ice, not just the snow

    Optional Salting

    Salt applied after clearing where ice is the bigger risk than remaining snow, such as steps and entryways.

    • Bundled with a clearing visit
    • Focused on high-risk spots
    • Booked separately if preferred
  • One booking, all winter

    Seasonal Plans

    A standing plan for the season instead of booking storm by storm, so you know your driveway is covered.

    • Set for the whole winter
    • Priority scheduling during storms
    • Confirmed before the season starts

People Also Ask

What York Region, ON homeowners ask about snow removal & salting

It depends on how many storms a typical winter brings and how you value the priority scheduling a seasonal plan includes. We can walk through both options when you request a quote.

Salting is scoped separately from clearing, since it solves a different problem (ice, not snow depth). It can be bundled with a clearing visit or booked on its own.

Driveway size and layout, including inclines and how many walkways are involved, are the main factors in pricing.

York Region, ON

Snow removal and salting across York Region, ON

York Region winters swing between heavy lake-effect snowfalls and sudden thaws, which is what makes ice, not just snow depth, the bigger hazard on most driveways. A property near Newmarket or Aurora might see a different snow total in a given storm than one in Vaughan or Markham, so a one-size schedule doesn't actually fit every property in the same way.

Driveway layout matters as much as snowfall does. A long driveway or one with an incline clears differently than a short, flat one, and that is part of what a quote accounts for before the first storm of the season.

Seasonal plans versus storm-by-storm

A seasonal plan means the schedule is set before winter starts and the property gets priority when a storm hits, which matters most on the mornings everyone else is also trying to get plowed. Storm-by-storm works for properties that don't need clearing every time it snows, or that want the flexibility to skip a visit.

Either way, salting is scoped separately from clearing because the two solve different problems. Clearing removes the snow; salting is for the ice that forms after, on steps and entryways where a slip is the real risk.
