Ryan and his crew were absolutely amazing on every level including attention to detail and transparency with everything from a fair and honest quote to the level of craftsmanship performed. They worked at a fast and efficient pace while considering safety of the homeowner and his crew at all times. The difference is he listens to his customers and goes the extra mile to make them happy. I had my retaining wall reconstructed and I couldn't be happier. I highly recommend RMK services for all your project needs.

Excellent service from Ryan. He poured a sidewalk for us at our rental property and got it done on time and in budget. We'll be using his services again very soon.

From the beginning Ryan was on it! When I first searched yelp for help with fixing my glass block windows, lentals, and repointing on my brick outside my house he was one of the first to contact me. He scheduled to meet with me fairly quickly, was on time and realistic with what work was needed to be done and offered it at a very reasonable price. He kept me informed the whole time on everything he was doing and ensured me the job would be done correctly. Would recommend.

Our Snowplowing Service

Our snowplowing services are built on reliability and preparedness. We closely monitor winter storm forecasts for the Pittsburgh region, allowing us to mobilize our crews before the first snowflakes stick. This proactive approach ensures we are ready to respond 24/7. Our fleet of plow trucks and snow removal equipment is meticulously maintained for performance in harsh conditions. We dispatch our experienced operators strategically based on storm patterns and client locations. This ensures an efficient response that gets to your property faster. We understand that timely snow removal is critical for safety. Our planning and logistics are designed to deliver prompt service.

We offer comprehensive residential snowplowing services to keep your home safe and accessible. Our service includes clearing your driveway from edge to edge, ensuring you can get in and out of your garage. We also offer walkway and sidewalk clearing services to create a safe path to your front door. Our operators are careful to avoid damaging your landscaping or concrete driveway aprons. We understand your home is your most valuable asset. We work cleanly and carefully to protect your property. We can set up a seasonal contract so you have automatic peace of mind all winter. Our residential service is perfect for busy families, seniors, or anyone who wants to avoid the strain of shoveling.

For our commercial clients, we provide dependable snowplowing and de-icing for parking lots, access roads, and walkways. A clear and safe property is essential for your employees, customers, and tenants. We partner with you to create a custom snow and ice management plan tailored to your business’s operating hours and specific needs. This plan includes dispatch triggers based on snow accumulation and service priorities for different areas of your lot. Our goal is to minimize disruption to your business and reduce your liability from slip and fall accidents. We are insured for commercial work and can provide documentation for your records.

Our team is trained in more than just plowing. We are experts in snow stacking and removal when needed. On large commercial properties or after major storms, simply pushing snow into piles is not enough. These piles can take up valuable parking spaces and create dangerous blind spots. We have the equipment to load and haul snow off site if required. For most properties, we work to stack snow in designated, out of the way locations. This maximizes your usable space and maintains a clean, professional appearance for your property.

We also provide complete ice management and de-icing services. After a property is plowed, refreezing can create hazardous, icy patches. We can apply de-icing materials to prevent this dangerous condition. We offer a variety of de-icing agents and can select the one that is best for your property and the current temperature. This includes salt, brine, and materials that are safer for concrete surfaces. Our ice management services are a critical component of a complete snow removal plan. It is the best way to ensure your walkways and driving surfaces are truly safe.

As a full service concrete contractor, we are uniquely qualified to manage snow on concrete surfaces. We understand how damaging some de-icing chemicals, like rock salt, can be to concrete driveways and sidewalks. We can advise you on and use de-icing products that are less corrosive and safer for your concrete. Our primary goal is to protect your property while ensuring safety. You can trust our deep knowledge of concrete to inform our snow removal practices. We work to clear the snow effectively without causing unnecessary damage to your hardscapes.

Our service options are flexible to meet your needs. We offer seasonal contracts, which are the best way to guarantee service. With a seasonal contract, you pay one flat fee and we automatically show up to clear your property every time it snows. This is our most popular, worry free option. We also offer per-push or per-visit pricing for clients who prefer to call for service as needed. We provide clear, simple billing and honest communication. Our 5 star service commitment means we make the entire process easy and transparent for you.

A Homeowner’s Guide On Snowplowing in Pittsburgh

As a Pittsburgh homeowner, preparing for winter is essential, and that includes a plan for snow removal. Relying on your own shovel or snowblower for heavy, wet snow can be backbreaking and time consuming. Hiring a professional snowplowing service ensures your driveway is cleared promptly, allowing you to get to work safely. When hiring a contractor, always ask if they are licensed and insured for snow removal. It is also wise to book your service well before the first storm hits, as the best companies fill their routes early. Ask about seasonal contracts, which provide peace of mind and are often more cost effective than paying per visit. Finally, if you have a concrete or decorative driveway, ask your contractor what kind of de-icing products they use to ensure they are not damaging your investment.

Common Snowplowing Questions

During a heavy Pittsburgh winter, a reliable snowplowing service is essential. It provides safety, convenience, and peace of mind. Homeowners and business owners often have questions about how these services work before they sign up. Here are answers to some of the most common questions about professional snowplowing.

RMK Services is proud to offer both comprehensive residential and commercial snowplowing services. For our residential clients, we understand that your priority is safety and accessibility for your family. Our services are designed to clear your driveway, sidewalks, and walkways promptly so you can get on with your day. We use equipment that is appropriately sized for residential properties to work efficiently without damaging your lawn or landscaping. We offer seasonal contracts for homeowners in the Pittsburgh area who want guaranteed, automatic service all winter long.

For our commercial clients, we recognize that you are responsible for the safety of your employees, customers, and tenants. A clear and ice free property is critical for your operations and for mitigating liability. We develop customized snow and ice management plans for all types of commercial properties, including office parks, retail centers, apartment complexes, and industrial facilities. Our insured crews are reliable and can service your property 24/7, with a focus on clearing high traffic areas before your business opens. We are equipped to handle large parking lots and provide complete de-icing services.

Our company has the professional equipment and experienced crews to manage properties of all sizes. Whether you have a small residential driveway or a sprawling commercial campus, we apply the same level of integrity and commitment to 5 star service. We have the manpower and fleet to handle our contractual obligations even during the most severe winter storms. We are your all in one solution for winter property maintenance in the Pittsburgh region. Our team is dedicated to keeping your property safe and accessible, no matter what winter brings.

The timing of our service, or the “trigger depth,” is a key detail that we establish with each client before the season begins. For most of our residential seasonal contracts, our standard trigger is two inches of snow accumulation. Once two inches of snow has fallen and the storm is tapering, our crews are dispatched to begin their routes. This ensures we are not plowing insignificant dustings but are responding promptly to any accumulating snow that can impede your travel. This trigger can be customized based on your preference for a lower or higher accumulation.

For commercial properties, the trigger depth is often more customized and detailed in the service contract. A business that is open 24/7, like a hospital or distribution center, may require a “zero tolerance” policy, meaning we are on site as soon as the storm begins. Other businesses, like a standard office park, may be comfortable with a two or three inch trigger. We work with you to define the service levels that match your business needs and budget, including different triggers for different times of the day or for different parts of your property.

It is important to understand that plowing during an active, heavy blizzard is an ongoing battle. In cases of very heavy snowfall, we may perform multiple plows on your property. We might do a first pass to keep the property open and accessible, and then return after the storm has stopped to do a final, detailed cleanup from edge to edge. Our goal is always to keep your property as safe as possible given the weather conditions. We communicate with our clients during major storm events so you know what to expect.

Yes, we offer comprehensive de-icing and salting services as a critical part of our snow management plan. Plowing alone only removes the snow; it does not treat the underlying ice or prevent a melted layer from refreezing. De-icing is essential for maintaining a truly safe and slip free surface on both walkways and parking lots. Our de-icing services are available for both our residential and commercial clients, often as an add on to a plowing contract. This service provides the highest level of safety and liability protection for your property.

Our crews are equipped with professional grade salt spreaders on our trucks for parking lots and access roads. We also have smaller, walk behind spreaders for applying de-icing materials to sidewalks, entryways, and public walkways. We can apply de-icing material after we plow to melt any remaining packed snow or ice. We can also be dispatched to apply material during a freezing rain or ice storm event, even if there is no snow accumulation. This proactive approach to ice management is crucial for preventing dangerous, slippery conditions.

We offer a variety of de-icing materials to suit different needs and temperatures. Traditional rock salt (sodium chloride) is effective but loses its melting power at very low temperatures. We also offer treated salt and other chemical blends that can melt ice at much colder temperatures. We work with you to select the best and most cost effective ice management solution for your property, ensuring your surfaces remain as safe as possible all winter. Our operators are trained to apply the correct amount of material to be effective without being wasteful.

We offer both seasonal contracts and per-visit pricing to provide the flexibility our clients need. Our most popular option, especially for residential homeowners and high priority commercial lots, is the seasonal contract. A seasonal contract gives you complete peace of mind. You pay a single, fixed price for the entire winter season, and our crews will automatically service your property every time the snow trigger is met. You do not have to call us or worry about a sudden storm. You are on our primary route, and you are guaranteed service. This option is easier for budgeting and ensures you are a top priority.

We also offer per-push or per-visit pricing. This pay as you go model is best for clients who do not require guaranteed service or who may only want to call for help during major storms. With this arrangement, you are not on an automatic route, and service is subject to availability during a storm event. We prioritize our seasonal contract clients first, and then we service our per-push clients as the schedule allows. While this can be a more affordable option in a very light snow year, it can become more expensive than a contract in a heavy winter, and it does not guarantee a specific response time.

For most of our clients, the seasonal contract is the superior value. It locks in your price regardless of how much snow falls, and it ensures you will receive prompt, reliable service all winter long. We offer our seasonal contracts with clear, simple terms that outline the trigger depth and all services included. We are happy to provide a free estimate for both a seasonal contract and our per-push rates so you can compare and choose the best option for your home or business.

Yes, absolutely. RMK Services is fully licensed and insured for all services we provide, including professional snow and ice management. This is a critical point of difference when hiring a snow removal contractor. Many small or independent operators may not carry the proper insurance, which puts you, the property owner, at significant risk. If an uninsured contractor damages your property, such as hitting your garage door or cracking your curb, you will be responsible for the repair costs.

More importantly, snow removal carries a high risk of liability from slip and fall accidents. Our comprehensive insurance policy includes general liability coverage that is specifically endorsed for our snowplowing operations. This protects you in the unfortunate event that someone is injured on your property. Hiring a fully insured contractor like RMK Services is the only way to ensure you are properly protected from liability. We consider our insurance a non negotiable cost of doing business professionally.

We are completely transparent about our coverage. We are more than happy to provide a certificate of insurance (COI) to any of our clients upon request. This document proves that we have active and adequate insurance coverage for the work we are performing on your property. This is a standard and necessary practice for all our commercial clients and a mark of professionalism that our residential clients appreciate. You can have complete confidence that you are protected when you partner with us for your winter services.

Our snowplowing service routes are focused on the same communities we are proud to serve with our concrete services. Our service area includes Pittsburgh, PA, and the surrounding townships and municipalities. This includes, but is not limited to, McCandless, Shaler Township, Ross Township, Hampton Township, Cranberry Township, and Monroeville. We also serve Mount Lebanon, Upper St. Clair, Bethel Park, and South Park. By keeping our routes concentrated in these areas, we can provide a faster and more reliable response time to all our clients during a storm.

We generally focus our snowplowing operations within a specific radius of Pittsburgh to ensure route density. This density is key to our efficiency. It allows our trucks to service more clients in a shorter amount of time, rather than spending hours driving between distant properties. This means when it snows, our crews are already in your neighborhood and can get to your property quickly. We are a local, family-owned company that is dedicated to serving our direct community.

If you are unsure if your home or business is located within our snowplowing service area, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can call us or use our online estimation form. We can quickly verify your address and let you know if we are able to provide service to your location. We are always looking to build efficient routes and may be expanding our service area based on demand, so it is always worth asking.

Signing up for our snowplowing service is a simple and straightforward process. The best way to start is to contact us for a free, in-person estimate. You can call us directly or, for the fastest service, use our 24/7 self-service system on our website to book a call-back. We will schedule a convenient time for one of our team members to visit your property. This on site visit is crucial for us to provide an accurate and fair quote. We will measure your driveway or parking lot, assess the layout, and note any potential obstacles.

During this visit, we will discuss all of our service options with you. We will go over the details of our seasonal contracts versus our per-push pricing. We will discuss service triggers, your de-icing preferences, and any specific needs you have for walkways or sidewalks. After our assessment, we will provide you with a clear, detailed, and written proposal for you to review. There is no pressure and no obligation. We want you to have all the information you need to make the best decision.

Once you decide to move forward, we will send you a simple service agreement that outlines all the terms we discussed. After you sign the agreement, you are officially on our route and guaranteed service for the season. We highly recommend signing up for service well before the winter begins. Our routes fill up very quickly, and we often have to create a waiting list by the time the first snowstorm arrives. Contacting us in the fall is the best way to ensure your spot is secured for a safe, worry free winter.

This is an excellent question and one that we, as professional concrete contractors, are uniquely qualified to answer. The most common de-icing material, rock salt (sodium chloride), can be very damaging to concrete surfaces. It is corrosive and can accelerate the deterioration of concrete, leading to spalling, pitting, and flaking. This is especially true for concrete that is less than a few years old and has not fully cured and built up its strength. We strongly advise against using rock salt on any decorative stamped concrete, as it can ruin the surface.

We offer de-icing products that are specifically designed to be safer for concrete and pet paws. These products are often made from calcium chloride or magnesium chloride. While these materials are more expensive than rock salt, they are much less corrosive to concrete and are effective at melting ice at lower temperatures. For clients with new concrete driveways, stamped concrete, or paver patios, we will always recommend using one of these safer alternatives to protect your valuable hardscape investment. We believe in protecting your property, not just clearing it.

It is important to note that no chemical de-icer is 100 percent harmless to concrete over the long term, and any melted water can still refreeze and cause freeze thaw damage. The best defense is to have your concrete properly sealed with a high quality penetrating sealer, which we also offer as a service. However, using a concrete safe de-icer is a critical part of a responsible winter maintenance program. We will always be transparent with you about the products we are using and help you make the best choice to balance safety and the preservation of your property.
