Rock salt or grit depending on the surface. We avoid salt on new concrete or near plants where possible. We'll advise on what's best for your specific surfaces.
How long does the treatment last?
Depends on conditions - usually 12-24 hours. If temperatures stay below freezing and more precipitation falls, it may need retreating.
Can you do regular visits during cold spells?
Yes - we can set up daily or as-needed visits during prolonged freezing weather. Particularly useful for elderly residents or businesses.

These are priorities - most dangerous areas for falls. We treat all walking surfaces, focusing on steps, slopes, and doorways first.
