Lawnmark SNOW Plow Service

LawnMark winter season snow plow services In Northeast Ohio greater Cleveland

The east side of greater Cleveland is commonly known as the snow belt ...where it's common to get over 90 inches of snow fall each winter season.   The heart of the snow belt is Chardon, Chesterland, Chagrin Falls, Gates Mills, Hunting Valley, Kirtland, Newbury, Russell, and Pepper Pike where snow removal services are critical for homeowners and businesses.   Winter lake effect snow add to the challenges of getting regular sunshine ...so not our favorite season of the year...but we provide an integral snow removal service and ice management for our commercial clients parking lots!  

When the temperature falls to 32 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, water molecules combine to form repeating patterns of hexagons also known as ICE.    During these times we can apply rock salt to dissolve and impede  the ice formation process.  Salt works by getting an atom in between water molecules, thereby preventing it from finding its nearest neighbor to form crystals. 

In the case of rock salt, which is just table salt, or sodium chloride, there’s one atom of sodium and one atom of chlorine to do this disrupting.  Applying salt to roads, driveways, and sidewalks, lowers the freezing point from 32 degrees to 25 degrees and melts ice.  The relatively small reduction in freezing temperature—just 7 degrees—is why in Ohio rock salt will often fail to keep water from freezing, with freeze and thaw cycles. These temperature fluctuations also cause problems for concrete.

Concrete is porous and allows a certain amount of water—and any dissolved salt—inside. If the temperature drops below the lowered freezing point, the water will expand. The pits in concrete sidewalks and driveways are from salt and the stresses of ice freezing inside the concrete.
