We Offer Winter Maintenance
Ontario winters often deliver lots of snow, which can be challenging to manage and remove. This is why we offer professional winter maintenance services, including:
- Snow plowing. We can help you keep parking lots, roads, and driving lanes free and clear to use during the winter months, helping you drive more safely.
- Salting services. Salt creates a chemical reaction within ice which can cause it to lower the freezing point; this leads to the ice melting and making driving and walking areas safe to use during the winter.
- Sanding services. In some cases, the temperature may be too cold for salt to work effectively. At this point our technicians will use sand to cause friction in the ice and cause it to melt, leaving your roads, parking lots, and walkways clear.
Vacuum Excavation - the Safe Excavation Method
Vacuum excavation is commonly referred to as "soft dig" and is generally thought of as safer than hand digging. This method prevents the possibility of line damage and trench cave-ins. We use both hydro and air vacuum excavation methods of uncovering underground utilities.

Vacuum excavation is used for various purposes, including:
- Grease trap cleaning

- Waste removal
- Hydrojetting
- Car wash debris

Benefits of Hydro Excavation
Hydro vacuum excavation is ideal when addressing sewer and underground pipeline issues. It allows us to dig through the soil without affecting the existing lines and is the typically regarded as the fastest and most accurate method. Other benefits of using this method include:
