Snow Removal Process

Straightforward Service From Start to Finish

We start with a site visit to understand your property layout, priority areas, and snow storage locations. This lets us plan the most efficient clearing pattern and identify any obstacles or sensitive areas that need special attention during plowing operations.

When snow starts falling, we monitor accumulation and deploy equipment based on your service agreement. For most properties, we begin plowing when accumulation reaches 2-3 inches, but emergency calls get immediate response regardless of depth.

After plowing, we apply ice melt or sand to high-traffic areas like walkways and building entrances. We pile snow in designated areas that won’t block drainage or create visibility problems. Before leaving, we do a final check to ensure all contracted areas are properly cleared and safe for normal use.

Everything You Need for Winter Access

Our snow removal services cover driveways, parking lots, walkways, and building entrances. We handle both residential properties and commercial facilities, adjusting our approach based on traffic patterns and priority areas you identify during our initial consultation.

Ice management comes standard with every service call. We apply appropriate materials to prevent slip hazards and ensure safe walking surfaces around entrances and high-traffic zones. Our equipment can handle everything from light snowfall to heavy accumulation that smaller operators can’t manage effectively.

We offer both per-storm pricing and seasonal contracts. Seasonal agreements give you budget predictability and priority scheduling during major storm events. Emergency calls are available for unexpected situations, though response times depend on current weather conditions and existing commitments to contract customers.

How quickly do you respond during snow storms in Riparius?

Response times depend on storm severity and current conditions, but we typically begin service calls within 2-4 hours after snowfall stops or reaches the trigger depth specified in your agreement. Contract customers receive priority scheduling over emergency calls. During major storm events, we may start plowing before snowfall ends to prevent dangerous accumulation, especially for commercial properties that need early morning access. We monitor weather forecasts closely and position equipment strategically to minimize travel time between properties during active storms.
Commercial snow removal includes plowing all designated parking areas, fire lanes, and access roads on your property. We clear loading docks, dumpster areas, and emergency exits as required by your service agreement. Ice control application on walkways and building entrances is standard, along with snow removal from handicap accessible parking spaces and pathways. We can also provide sidewalk clearing and building entrance snow removal if specified in your contract. Each commercial property gets a customized service plan based on your business hours, traffic patterns, and priority areas.
We offer both seasonal contracts and per-storm pricing to fit different needs and budgets. Seasonal contracts provide cost predictability and priority service during storm events, with pricing based on historical snowfall data and your property requirements. These agreements typically run from November through March and include a specified number of service calls plus ice management materials. Per-storm pricing works better for properties that need occasional service or want flexibility in when they call for snow removal. Contract customers always receive priority scheduling during major storms.
Our professional excavating equipment can handle everything from residential driveways to large commercial parking lots and municipal facilities. We have multiple plow trucks and heavy equipment that can manage significant snow accumulation that smaller operators struggle with during major storm events. For residential properties, we can navigate most driveway configurations while protecting landscaping and decorative features. Commercial properties benefit from our ability to efficiently clear large areas and move substantial amounts of snow to designated storage areas without multiple trips or equipment limitations.
Yes, we carry full commercial liability insurance and proper licensing for snow removal operations in New York. Our insurance covers property damage and liability issues that could arise during snow removal work on your property. We provide proof of insurance and licensing documentation before beginning any service agreement. This protection is especially important for commercial property owners who need to verify contractor credentials for their own liability coverage. We maintain current coverage year-round, not just during snow season.
Safety comes first, so we don’t operate equipment during dangerous conditions like ice storms or when visibility is severely limited. However, our professional-grade equipment and local experience allow us to work in conditions that stop smaller operators. We monitor road conditions constantly and resume service as soon as it’s safe to do so. Contract customers receive priority attention once conditions improve, and we work extended hours after major storms to catch up on delayed service calls. We communicate with customers about delays and expected service times when severe weather impacts our normal response schedule.
