Rolling Hills Property Services has been handling Suffolk County properties for years. We know exactly how Long Island snow behaves – from the lake-effect storms that hit the North Shore to the coastal storms that slam West Islip with heavy, wet snow.
This isn’t some fly-by-night operation that disappears when the big storms hit. We’re based right here in Smithtown, fully licensed and insured, with the professional equipment needed to handle whatever winter throws at your property.
When other companies are overwhelmed or unreachable, Rolling Hills is out there clearing driveways and keeping West Islip properties safe and accessible.
Before the season starts, we assess your property and create a clearing plan that protects your driveway, walkways, and landscaping. You know exactly what to expect and what it costs – no surprises when the bills come.
When snow starts falling, we monitor conditions and deploy crews based on accumulation and storm timing. Your property gets cleared efficiently with professional-grade plows and equipment designed for Long Island’s challenging snow conditions.
After clearing, we apply salt or de-icing materials where needed to prevent dangerous ice formation. You get updates on service completion, so you know your property is ready before you need to leave the house.

Your snow removal services include professional plowing of driveways and parking areas, hand clearing of walkways and steps, and strategic salt application to prevent ice buildup. We use the right equipment for your specific property layout.
West Islip properties face unique challenges with coastal storm systems that bring heavy, wet snow followed by rapid temperature changes. Rolling Hills understands these local conditions and adjusts our approach accordingly – heavier equipment for wet snow, extra attention to areas that typically ice over.
You also get clear communication throughout the process. No wondering if we’re coming or when the job will be done. We keep you informed so you can plan your day around clean, safe access to your property.
Response time depends on storm intensity and accumulation, but Rolling Hills typically begins snow removal operations when accumulation reaches 2-3 inches. We monitor weather forecasts closely and position crews strategically throughout Suffolk County before storms hit.
During major storm events, we work continuously to keep up with snowfall, often making multiple passes on properties experiencing heavy, ongoing precipitation. Priority is given to properties with steep driveways or areas prone to ice formation.
You’ll receive updates on estimated arrival times and service completion, so you’re never left wondering when your property will be cleared.
Rolling Hills uses professional-grade snow plows sized appropriately for residential driveways and parking areas. This includes both truck-mounted plows for larger areas and smaller equipment for tight spaces or areas requiring more precise maneuvering.
For walkways and steps, we use commercial snow blowers and hand tools to ensure thorough clearing without damaging surfaces or landscaping. All equipment is regularly maintained and ready for Long Island’s demanding snow conditions.
We also carry professional de-icing materials and spreaders to address ice formation – a critical component given West Islip’s coastal location where temperature fluctuations can create hazardous icy conditions even after snow clearing.
Yes, salt and de-icing application is included as part of our comprehensive snow removal approach. Long Island’s coastal climate means temperatures often hover around freezing, creating perfect conditions for dangerous ice formation after snow clearing.
We apply rock salt or ice melt products strategically to high-traffic areas like the end of driveways, walkways, and steps. The amount and type of de-icing material used depends on current temperatures, forecast conditions, and the specific areas of your property.
This isn’t just throwing salt everywhere – we target application to prevent waste while ensuring maximum safety for the areas you and your family use most frequently.
Our experienced operators know where your landscaping, sprinkler heads, and decorative elements are located before the first snow falls. We mark sensitive areas and use appropriate techniques to avoid damage during clearing operations.
Snow placement is strategic – we pile snow in areas that won’t damage plants or block drainage when melting occurs. For properties with limited space, we may need to haul snow away rather than simply pushing it to the edges of your driveway.
Our equipment operators have years of experience working on Long Island residential properties and understand how to clear snow efficiently while protecting the investments you’ve made in your landscaping and hardscaping.
Rolling Hills Property Services carries full liability insurance specifically for snow removal operations, providing protection for both our crews and your property. However, our experienced operators and proper equipment sizing significantly reduce the risk of damage occurring.
Before beginning seasonal service, we document existing conditions of driveways, walkways, and nearby landscaping. This helps identify any pre-existing issues and ensures clear communication about property conditions.
In the unlikely event that damage does occur during our operations, our insurance coverage and commitment to customer satisfaction means issues are addressed promptly and professionally. This is part of why working with a licensed, insured local company matters.
Rolling Hills offers both seasonal contracts and per-storm pricing options to accommodate different preferences and budgets. Seasonal contracts provide predictable costs and priority service, while per-storm pricing offers flexibility for homeowners who prefer to pay as needed.
Seasonal contract customers receive priority scheduling during major storm events and often benefit from lower per-service costs compared to per-storm pricing. These contracts typically run from December through March, covering the primary snow season for Suffolk County.
Per-storm pricing is calculated based on your specific property size, complexity, and services required. We provide clear estimates upfront so you know exactly what to expect – no surprise charges when conditions get challenging.
