Ice Hazard Response

What This Service Involves

Ice hazards in the Puget Sound region can form fast and in unexpected places, from shaded corners to spots where runoff crosses a walkway and refreezes. Our ice hazard response service targets these danger points quickly, whether reported by staff, tenants, or a routine check. We assess why the ice formed, treat it, and recommend steps to keep it from returning at that spot. From retail entrances in Auburn to apartment stairwells in Marysville, we shut down hazards before someone slips.
