Heavy snowfalls, with eight inches or more, can take several hours or longer.

- Roj R.Edward assisted with snow removal and salting and did a great job. Very good communication and good attention to detail. I highly recommend and will be working with him again. Snow Removal
- Jenny V.Adam B. was excellent! He went above and beyond by arriving early to shovel my parents' driveway, ensuring they could leave on time. He worked quickly and efficiently, leaving the driveway clear and safe. My parents had nothing but positive things to say about him, and I couldn't be more pleased with his service. Highly recommend!Snow Removal
- C B.Adam helped us with snow removal when my husband’s back was out and I couldn’t leave work. He did a fantastic job! He was willing to start ASAP (same day) and went above and beyond. We just needed the sidewalk done and he took the initiative to clear our small driveway, too. He also salted, which we hadn’t asked for (he checked in about it, first), another above and beyond extra measure. He came on time, immediately got to work (with his own tools) and finished the job in record time. He was absolutely delightful to communicate with. He shared a full report and sent photos after the fact to let us know about a stubborn ice patch so we knew where to be careful. I will definitely be hiring him again and again and again! Recommend Adam highly to anyone needing snow removal in the capital region.Snow Removal
