Professional Snow Clearance and Gritting Services in Northwich and Cheshire
As your local winter maintenance specialists, we have much to offer our customers in Northwich, Cheshire, and beyond. Here is a few of our more popular services…
Winter Maintenance
Winter maintenance is a catch-all term that covers our extensive range of road gritting, snow clearance and ice control solutions. These various methods allow us to keep our customers across Cheshire and the surrounding areas on the move by keeping roads open and accessible. This also applies to private roads, car parks, and workplaces.
Snow Clearance
When the snow lies heavy on the ground, it takes more than a layer of grit to shift it. As well as being a difficult obstacle in its own right, surface snow is soon compacted into dangerous ice patches. At W E Dawson, we offer an effective snow clearance service, removing heavy snowfall from roads across Cheshire.
Gritting
The easiest way to make roads traversable for vehicles is to apply a layer of grit or rock salt to the surface. This useful material melts the ice and snow by lowering the freezing point of any moisture on the road surface. Our salt gritting trucks are kept loaded throughout the winter months, to be despatched at a moment’s notice.
Ice Control
Icy roads and surfaces pose a significant risk for drivers and pedestrians alike. While salt gritting can provide customers with a safe surface, ice tends to build up and refreeze throughout the day. As well as gritting the roads, we remove compacted snow and ice from high-traffic areas to minimise the chance of ice reforming.
Winter Forecast Monitoring
Here at W E Dawson, we like to ensure that our customers are looked after, not just in the present, but well into the future.
