Cleared isn't the same as safe.
A driveway or lot can look perfectly clear and still be a sheet of ice at seven in the morning. Kastor Services treats the surfaces people drive and walk on across Rock County so footing holds after the plow leaves.
What we treat
- Driveways, especially sloped ones where vehicles lose grip
- Parking lots, drive lanes and approaches
- Sidewalks, front walks and connecting paths
- Entryways, steps and stoops where people slow down and turn
- Shaded and north-facing areas that refreeze after everything else dries
- Low spots where meltwater collects and freezes overnight
When treatment makes the difference
After the plow
Plowing leaves a thin compacted layer behind. Treating it keeps that layer from turning into a slick sheet overnight.
Freeze-thaw stretches
Wisconsin winters swing above and below freezing constantly. Those are the days surfaces get most dangerous.
Freezing rain and drizzle
Events that leave almost no snow can leave the worst ice. There is nothing to plow, so treatment is the whole job.
Where we work
Ice control and salting throughout Rock County, Wisconsin.
Common questions
Can I get salting without plowing?
Yes. Ice control can be booked on its own, which some customers do for freezing-rain events or for a driveway that refreezes even when there is little snow.
Is it included with snow removal?
It can be written into your seasonal agreement so treatment happens as part of the same visit, or kept separate and requested as needed. Tell us which suits the property.
How is it priced?
Like our other winter work, treatment is arranged on a seasonal agreement and billed per event. Cost depends on the size of the area treated, so we quote each property specifically. Estimates are free.
Will salt damage my driveway or plants?
Any de-icer used heavily can affect concrete edges and nearby planting beds. We apply what the surface actually needs rather than blanketing it, and we can talk through the approach for sensitive areas when we quote the job.
Are you insured?
Yes, Kastor Services LLC is licensed and insured.
