Winter weather can turn your property into a liability at a moment’s notice. Between snow, ice, and freezing rain, one misstep—or one missed service—can lead to costly accidents, injuries, downtime, and frustrated tenants, patients, or employees. For commercial properties across Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky proactive snow and ice management isn’t just maintenance—it’s risk mitigation.

1. Start With a Preseason Plan

Strong preseason plan should include:

  • A site inspection to identify hazards, slopes, and drainage issues

  • Mapping out plow routes and high-priority areas like walkways, ADA spaces, and entrances

  • Dedicated crews and equipment assigned to your property for faster response times

2. Choose a Partner With Proven Reliability

Look for a provider that offers:

  • 24/7 monitoring and dispatch during snow events

  • Real-time communication before, during, and after storms

  • Local crews who understand regional weather patterns

  • Backup equipment and staff in case of breakdowns

3. Communication Is Everything

Expect your provider to offer:

  • Storm alerts and service schedules before weather hits

  • Post-service reports with photos and reports

  • Transparent billing and documentation for liability protection

4. Choose a Partner Who’s Ready Before Winter Starts

When a storm is in the forecast, it’s too late to start calling around. A proactive partner ensures your property stays safe, accessible, and professional all winter long. At GroundSystems, we’ve been planning, training, and preparing all year.
