The City of Calgary requires property owners to clear snow and ice from adjacent public sidewalks within 24 hours of a snowfall ending. Failure to comply can result in a fine.

Our Process for Sidewalk Snow Clearing in Calgary
Our approach to Sidewalk Snow Clearing in Calgary is straightforward, focusing on creating a safe and walkable surface for your property.
Snow Removal
We use shovels and snow blowers to clear snow from the sidewalk surface efficiently. We are careful to place the cleared snow in an appropriate location on your property, avoiding obstruction of public or private access points.
