From your driveway to the parking lot
One crew covers residential and commercial. Which matters at 5am, when a contractor split across two operations is choosing whose lot gets done first.
Sidewalk & Walkway Shoveling
The bit that is legally yours in Lexington.
Sidewalks, walkways and entrances cleared by hand where a plow cannot reach.
Commercial Parking Lots
Open on time, or do not open.
Retail, office and multi-unit parking lots plowed, stacked and treated ahead of the working day.
Ice Management & Salting
The part that causes the claims.
Ice melt applied to cleared surfaces, and treatment of the refreeze that follows a thaw.
Emergency Snow Response
When it did more than forecast.
Storm call-outs for properties that need clearing outside a scheduled route.
Road & Alley Clearing
Private roads nobody else is coming for.
Access roads, alleys and shared drives that fall outside the city's plowing routes.
Snow removal prices in Central Kentucky
One-off clears are priced per visit. Anything commercial, and most repeat residential, is quoted per property, because a lot with somewhere to stack the snow is a different job from one without.
Residential driveway, one-time
$45 to $85
A single clear after a storm. Driveway length, slope and how much has fallen set the figure.
Seasonal residential
Custom quote
Every qualifying event for the season, on a set route. Cheaper per clear and it does not depend on getting through on the phone.
Commercial & parking lot
Custom quote
Lots, sidewalks, entrances and access roads, with ice management. Quoted on area, stacking space and the hour it has to be open by.
- How much fell
- A four-inch event and a ten-inch event are different jobs on the same ground.
- Where the snow goes
- On a commercial lot, somewhere to stack it is worth more than the plowing itself.
- Hand work
- Sidewalks, steps and entrances are shovelled, not plowed, and that is time rather than machine.
- When it has to be done by
- An opening time, a school run or a shift change sets the position in the route.
Seasonal arrangements are set up before the season. Once a storm is forecast, the route is already built, which is the practical reason to have this conversation in October rather than in January.
Lexington gives you 24 hours to clear the sidewalk
Most people find this out the week they are cited for it. For anyone managing property with public frontage, it is the difference between a service and an obligation.

Hours to clear an abutting sidewalk after a snow event of four inches or more
Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, Code of Ordinances, Sec. 12-8.4, accumulation of snow as a nuisance
The sidewalk in front of your property is your responsibility, not the city's. Under Sec. 12-8.4, an owner of property abutting a sidewalk must clear it after any snow event that accumulates four inches or more, and must do it within twenty-four hours of the end of that event. Snow left beyond that point is treated as a nuisance, abated under the procedure in Sec. 12-3.
Two things in the ordinance work in your favor, and they are worth knowing before you panic about them. No violation is issued while the street abutting your sidewalk has not itself been plowed: you are not expected to clear a path to a road nobody can use. And the mayor can suspend enforcement in extreme conditions, which is the provision that covers the storms where nothing moves for two days.
Where this bites is commercial and multi-unit property. A homeowner with twenty feet of frontage has a shovel and a Saturday morning. A landlord, an HOA or a business with a long frontage and an opening time has a twenty-four hour clock running on every qualifying event of the winter, usually across more than one address, and usually while also needing the lot cleared. That is a route, not a phone call, which is the case for setting it up in advance rather than ringing round on the morning.
This is a plain-English summary of a local ordinance, not legal advice, and ordinances change. The Code of Ordinances is the authority on what applies to your address, and liability for a fall on your frontage is a separate question from the ordinance: one for your insurer.

Very quick from contact to in home to remove some flooring. Once on site they got straight to work and did an outstanding job! Very reasonable price for the work done. Will continue to use them for all future needs.

From forecast to cleared ground
Four steps, and the first one happens before it snows.
Sign up or call
Set up seasonal service ahead of the winter, or call for a one-off clear after a storm.
Storm monitoring
We track the forecast so the route is planned and the crew is ready before the snow starts.
Clear and treat
Plowed, shovelled where a plow cannot go, and ice melt applied to the cleared surface.
Follow-up
We come back for additional passes through heavy or extended snowfall rather than clearing once and leaving it.
Questions before the first storm
The six we get asked most, answered properly rather than deflected to a phone call.
Managing more than one property?
Send the addresses and the times each needs to be open by. Multiple properties on one route is a different quote from the same properties booked separately.
(859) 213-6077Do you offer seasonal contracts?
Yes, for both residential and commercial property, quoted per property rather than off a list. The reason to set one up is not only price: seasonal properties are on a built route before a storm arrives, so clearing does not depend on getting through on the phone on the morning everybody else is calling too. Sign-up is the first step of the process above, and it is meant to happen before the season rather than during it.
How quickly do you respond after a snowstorm?
We track the forecast ahead of a storm and work the route as conditions allow, with follow-up passes during heavy or extended snowfall rather than a single clear. Properties on a seasonal arrangement are on that route; one-off call-outs are fitted around it, which is the practical difference between the two. If your property needs to be clear by a specific hour (an opening time, a shift change), say so at quote stage and we will tell you plainly whether we can commit to it rather than promising and hoping.
Do you salt and manage ice?
Yes. Ice melt is applied to cleared surfaces as part of the job rather than as an extra, and ice management covers the refreeze that follows a partial thaw, which on a commercial site is usually the more dangerous condition of the two, because the ground looks clear. Entrances, steps and walkways are where it matters most.
Can you clear commercial properties?
Yes: parking lots, sidewalks, entrances, access roads and alleys. Commercial work is quoted on area, on where the snow can be stacked, and on the hour the property has to be usable by. If your site has public sidewalk frontage in Lexington, the twenty-four hour clearing rule above applies to it, and clearing the lot without the sidewalk leaves the part with the obligation attached to it undone.
Are you available 24/7 during major storms?
Snow work runs outside normal hours by its nature: storms do not arrive between 8am and 6pm, and most clearing happens before the working day starts. Emergency snow response is one of the services listed above. Rather than claim a blanket round-the-clock guarantee, we would rather tell you what your specific property can be committed to: ask at quote stage and you will get a straight answer about hours and position in the route.
Which areas do you serve for snow removal?
Lexington and the surrounding counties: Lexington, Georgetown, Nicholasville, Richmond, Frankfort, Winchester, Versailles and Paris. Snow is the service where distance matters most, because a route has to be driveable in the conditions it is clearing, so give us the address rather than just the town and we will tell you honestly whether it fits the route.
Set it up before you need it
Send the address, the surfaces that need clearing and the time the property has to be usable by. Seasonal routes are built ahead of the season, so this is a conversation worth having early.
- Quotes guaranteed within 2 hours, 8am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday
- Free and no obligation. You only pay for completed work
