Service

A: We obtain the address required & use google maps to plan out the service. Then we determine spots desired to clear. Finally, during the day we have to service, we take a picture of the snow being removed to use our calculator on the website www.alpha-co.ca/snow-removal. Q: Do you provide salt or sand?

A: Just with every other service, we handle the snow removal of all walkways, stairs, parking spots etc... even if it snows every day of the month for any snow depth as well; for the determined months agreed upon.

A: We typically start at 5am until the route is finished. Starting in St. Catharines & working around the Niagara Region.
Q: How immediate after a snowfall event do you service?
