Ottawa is known to embody all things Canadian – and that means winter! This country is known for heavy snowfalls and ice! Just because it is part of the landscape does not mean that property owners should be overrun during winter months. If you are having a tough time managing low temperatures and slippery surfaces, you are not alone!
Whether working with plastic shovels, a snow blower or plow, there is a right way and a wrong way to get the job done. Calling a Gorilla for your Ottawa snow removal and salting services means expert care, prompt response time, quality service and competitive pricing.
Residential and Commercial Snow Removal in Ottawa
During Summer, property owners are quick to call the pros for lawn maintenance but winter care is often neglected. Waking up to a pile of snow is enough to put anyone in a bad mood. More than being an unpleasant sight, scraping away snow accumulation takes up valuable time and presents a dangerous obstacle. Improper removal techniques with rudimentary tools like snow shovels lead to muscle strains or pulled backs.
While snow is a pain, ice might as well be a ticket to the E.R. Providing safe passage for visitors or customers is more than a courtesy, it is part of the law! Whether you realize it or not, there are by-laws in place throughout communities that protect the public from slips. Not clearing away buildup can result in hefty fines. Calling in a professional snow removal service takes the bite out of winter by passing off the tough stuff.

More Than Snow Removal
When aiming for a clear and passable property, there is more to look for than basic snow removal. Ice can be right out in the open, or it can be buried just below the surface. Whether you can see it or not, ice is always lurking and getting rid of it can be tough. Everyone knows that salt can combat ice but running to your kitchen is not enough to stop slips. Gorillas understand which tools work best, as well as how to use strategic placement and techniques to get the best possible result.
Gorillas know how to navigate melting and formation. As temperatures rise during the day, snow melts and pools around dips and grooves; cracks and crevices; and along steep inclines. This can makes road surfaces and textured construction materials just as slippery as a skating rink. By identifying problem areas and assessing them alongside clients, Gorillas help to keep pedestrians safe in Ottawa. When you want your property to be as clear and passable as possible, call our Gorillas. Our services can be made to fit any residential, multi-unit or commercial property. No matter your space, call today to book an appointment with our Ottawa Gorillas.
