24 hours a day availability
We are available to take your calls, and work, 24 hours a day. If snowfall is persistent we offer a 24 hour reactive snow clearance service which ensures that your business or location are not interrupted by the adverse weather conditions.

Getting gritting right
When frost, ice and snow is forecast, gritting should be carried out ideally early evening and throughout the night, ensuring as little disruption as possible to your business. We apply grit to damp/wet walkways, parking areas and yards to prevent ice forming. We ensure that the salt gets sufficient time to dissolve into the wetness of the ground.
Essentially, preventative gritting is the best method for businesses that do not want to suffer financial loss due to safety issues and lack of attendance caused by poor weather conditions. We provide a proactive, cost-effective, efficient service that maximises the safety of your business, staff and customers.
If snow has fallen, it is essential that gritting and salting is carried out after snow clearance. This is to ensure that the salt works adequately, removing any remaining snow and ice patches. Applying salt and grit at this time ensures maximum efficiency, which is vital when meeting your company's winter maintenance budget.
In the event of persistent snowfall, we offer a 24 hour reactive gritting service to ensure that your business is not interrupted by the adverse weather conditions.
