You wake up to a cleared driveway while your neighbors are still shoveling. Your walkways are safe for family and visitors. Your car gets out without getting stuck.
That’s what happens when you have reliable snow removal covering your Riverhead property. No more rushing outside at 5 AM hoping to dig out before work. No more worrying whether you’ll make it to important appointments.
Winter storms hit Long Island hard, but your daily routine doesn’t have to suffer. Professional snow clearing means you stay on schedule regardless of what the weather throws at you.
Rolling Hills Property Services Inc has been handling Suffolk County properties for years. We understand exactly how Long Island winters work – from nor’easters that dump two feet overnight to those tricky mixed precipitation events that create ice underneath.
Being locally owned means we’re here year-round, not just when it snows. We know Riverhead’s neighborhoods, the tricky driveways, and which properties need extra attention during cleanup.
Licensed and insured with professional equipment designed for residential properties. We protect your landscaping, your driveway surface, and your peace of mind with every job.
When snow starts falling, our team monitors conditions and deploys equipment based on accumulation. We start with main access routes – your driveway from street to garage – ensuring you can get vehicles in and out safely.
Next comes walkways, steps, and secondary paths around your property. We use the right equipment for each area: plows for large surfaces, snow blowers for detailed work, and hand tools near delicate landscaping.
Salt or ice melt application follows when conditions require it. We clear storm drains and ensure proper water runoff to prevent refreezing. You get updates throughout the process so you know exactly when your property is ready.

Our snow removal service covers driveways, walkways, steps, and parking areas. We handle everything from light dustings to major storm cleanup, adjusting our approach based on snow type and temperature conditions.
Riverhead properties face unique challenges during winter months. Coastal moisture creates heavier, wetter snow that requires different handling than inland storms. Properties near the water deal with salt air that affects ice formation and equipment performance.
Our service includes ice management when temperatures fluctuate around freezing. We understand which products work best on different surfaces and how to protect your concrete, asphalt, and landscaping during treatment. Emergency response is available for unexpected storms or when access becomes critical.
Response time depends on storm severity and accumulation rates, but most Riverhead properties get cleared within 4-6 hours of snowfall ending. During active storms, we prioritize based on accumulation – usually starting service when 2-3 inches have fallen.
For major storms, we work continuously with multiple crews to keep up with heavy snowfall. Emergency situations get priority response when medical access or other critical needs arise.
Weather monitoring starts 48 hours before predicted storms, so equipment and crews are positioned for quick deployment across our Riverhead service area.
Standard service covers your main driveway from street to garage, primary walkways to entrances, and steps where needed. This includes clearing, not just plowing – so you get clean pavement, not just pushed snow.
Ice treatment is included when conditions require it, using products appropriate for your surface type. We clear around mailboxes, fire hydrants, and other obstacles that affect access.
Additional areas like secondary walkways, patios, or extended parking areas can be added to your service plan. Each property gets evaluated individually to determine what coverage makes sense for your specific layout and needs.
Professional equipment and experienced operators minimize any risk to your property. We use plow shoes and proper techniques to avoid scraping asphalt or concrete surfaces. Snow gets placed in designated areas away from plants and structures.
Pre-season property walks identify potential issues like low-hanging branches, decorative elements, or sensitive plantings that need special attention. Markers get placed where needed to guide equipment operators during low-visibility conditions.
Spring inspections check for any winter damage, though proper technique and equipment maintenance prevent most issues. Our insurance covers the rare situations where accidents occur despite proper procedures.
Pricing depends on your property size, driveway length, and additional areas needing service. Most residential properties in Riverhead range from seasonal contracts to per-storm billing, depending on what works better for your situation.
Seasonal contracts provide budget predictability – you pay the same amount regardless of how many storms hit. Per-storm billing charges only when service is actually performed, which works well for properties that don’t need clearing after every snowfall.
Free estimates include property evaluation and service recommendations based on your specific needs. Pricing is transparent with no hidden fees for standard storm conditions or typical access requirements.
Snow removal service typically runs from December through March, though we monitor conditions starting in November and extending into April when late-season storms occur. Service triggers based on accumulation, not calendar dates.
Most contracts begin with the first measurable snowfall of the season and continue until spring conditions eliminate the need for mechanical clearing. We don’t charge for months without snow service.
Pre-season equipment checks and property preparation happen in late fall. Post-season cleanup addresses any winter damage or debris that accumulated during storm operations. Communication keeps you informed about service status throughout the winter months.
Rolling Hills Property Services Inc maintains full licensing and insurance coverage for all snow removal operations. This includes general liability, equipment coverage, and worker’s compensation for crew members.
Insurance certificates are available upon request and cover property damage, personal injury, and equipment-related incidents. Licensing ensures compliance with Suffolk County and New York State requirements for commercial snow removal operations.
Bonding provides additional protection for clients, and we maintain relationships with local suppliers for equipment parts and ice treatment materials. Professional certification and ongoing training keep crews current on best practices and safety procedures.
