Sidewalk Plowing & Shovelling

Our Heroes use a combination of commercial-grade electric equipment and good old-fashioned snow pushers to clear snow from sidewalks and pedestrian walkways. The tools we use are tailored to the area we’re clearing; our satellite imagery, on-site checks, and highly refined operating procedures help ensure we’re always using the right tool for the job.

Ice Control & De-Icing for Walkways

Clearing fresh snow is only part of winter sidewalk maintenance. Snow can become packed under foot traffic. Meltwater can refreeze. Alberta's freeze-and-thaw cycles can create slippery areas even when there hasn't been much new snow. When needed, our Heroes apply sand, ice melt, or a combination of both after clearing the snow to ensure safe walkways. We can also manually chip ice where buildup has already formed. Our ice-melt is composed of calcium and magnesium, not traditional salt. It melts ice fast, doesn't damage your concrete, and is far more pet-friendly. Our crews typically apply 1 pound per 30-40 feet of sidewalk to reduce the risk of slips and falls on your property during winter. Sand and ice melt aren't substitutes for removing snow and ice; they're tools that help manage slippery conditions when winter weather does what it always does. If you ever need more sand for traction at your property, free sand for traction is available at designated locations in Edmonton.

Entryway & Access Path Clearing

The last few metres before someone reaches your door matter. We clear all the agreed-upon entrances, access paths, stairs, and other pedestrian areas around your property, right down to the bare pavement, paying special attention to areas where snow can create obstructions or where people regularly walk. No climbing over a snowbank to get inside. No, handing a shovel to whoever happened to arrive first that morning. Our Heroes have you covered, all season long.

Scheduled & Automatic Snow Removal Services

You already know it will snow this winter. The only real mystery is when. That’s why our regular snow removal service is designed around automatic dispatch rather than waiting for you to call us after every storm. When snowfall reaches at least 0.5 cm, we begin scheduling service for our neighbours. Our Heroes clear properties within 36 hours after snowfall ends, and we often arrive sooner. If you already have a package and need an additional visit because of unusual conditions or another concern on your property, talk to us. We may be able to arrange extra service.

Help Reduce Slip-and-Fall Risks

Ice and snow are part of life in Edmonton, but leaving heavily travelled pedestrian areas unattended creates unnecessary risk. Our Heroes clear snow, address icy conditions, and maintain the agreed-upon areas around your property so employees, residents, visitors, and neighbours have a safer route through it.

Reliable, Trained Heroes

Consistency doesn’t happen by accident. Neighbourhood Heroes has developed standardized operating procedures, training programs, route planning, and internal technology to help our Heroes provide dependable service throughout the season. Our founders and leadership team remain actively involved in operations, training, and quality control; we’re always finding better ways to serve our neighbours and updating our procedures accordingly.

Fully Insured Service

Neighbourhood Heroes is fully insured, providing businesses with the property management and organizations with the security they need from a professional snow clearing company.

No two commercial properties have exactly the same sidewalk snow removal needs. We use satellite imagery and information about your property to develop an accurate estimate based on the surfaces to be maintained, the scope of service, and any additional ice-management requirements. Our seasonal packages use predictable monthly pricing, making it easier to plan for winter maintenance rather than wondering what each snowfall will cost. Instead of paying $2 per pound of ice-melt for 40 feet of coverage, you can have a consistent all-in-one monthly fee.

The best time to figure out who is clearing your sidewalks is before you wake up to the first big snowfall. Neighbourhood Heroes combines trained people, proprietary technology, standardized systems, commercial-grade electric equipment, and a genuine commitment to serving our neighbours. Tell us about your property and the areas you need maintained. We’ll help you build a winter snow removal plan that means fewer cold mornings worrying about what’s happening outside.
