Roof Snow Removal in Fredericton, NB.
Fredericton's Saint John River corridor funnels every Atlantic storm system inland — ice storms outnumber pure snowfall events 2:1 some winters. Winters here are among the harshest in Canada — sub-zero temperatures hold for weeks and storm totals routinely top a metre over a season — and cul-de-sacs and curvilinear streets shape every routing decision. The local economy leans on UNB, NB Government, and Saint John River Society, which means our routes pre-treat UNB's sites before residential bookings whenever a storm is forecast inside their shift change.
