Snow Removal in Macomb & Oakland County, Michigan

Residential & Commercial Snow Removal You Can Count On

When lake-effect snow rolls through Macomb and Oakland County, a driveway or parking lot can go from clear to impassable in a matter of hours. Summit Snow & Lawn Services provides residential snow removal and commercial snow plowing built around one idea: you shouldn't have to call us every time it snows. Once your property is on our route, our crew dispatches automatically based on accumulation — clearing driveways, walkways, and lots before you need to leave for work or open your doors for customers.

We work with single-family homes, multi-unit residential properties, and commercial sites throughout the region, from a single-car driveway in Sterling Heights to a multi-acre parking lot in Troy. Every property gets a plan sized to its layout, traffic patterns, and the level of service that matters most — whether that's a spotless lot before your first shift starts or a cleared path to the mailbox before the school bus arrives.

Driveway Plowing & Walkway Clearing

Driveway snow removal is the core of what we do. Our equipment is sized to clear residential driveways cleanly down to the surface without the wear and tear that oversized commercial machinery can cause on concrete, pavers, or asphalt. Sidewalks and walkways are cleared by hand or with smaller equipment so entrances, porches, and pathways stay safe to walk — an especially important detail for households with older residents, kids waiting for the bus, or frequent deliveries.

• Full driveway plowing, edge to edge
• Walkway and sidewalk shovelling
• Careful clearing around landscaping, mailboxes & fixtures

Ice Management & Salting

Plowing alone doesn't solve the problem when temperatures swing above and below freezing — that's where ice management comes in. We apply salt and ice-melt treatments to driveways, walkways, steps, and commercial entrances to cut down on the black ice that causes slips, falls, and liability headaches. For commercial clients, documented ice management is often a requirement of insurance coverage; we treat high-traffic areas with that in mind.

Snow Removal for Businesses

Commercial snow removal comes with different stakes than a residential driveway — a lot that isn't cleared before opening can mean lost customers, employee call-offs, or a slip-and-fall claim. Summit works with business owners and property managers across Macomb and Oakland County to build snow removal contracts around actual operating hours, whether that means a cleared lot before a 6 a.m. shift change or ongoing treatment through an all-day storm. We handle parking lots, sidewalks, loading areas, and building entrances as a single coordinated job rather than treating each as an afterthought.

Full-Season Plans & Per-Push Service

We keep pricing straightforward with two ways to work with us. A full-season snow removal plan — paid in full or on a monthly payment plan — covers your property automatically for the entire winter with no per-storm invoices and no guesswork about cost. If you'd rather pay only for the storms that actually hit, our per-push option bills you per visit, with no long-term commitment. Both residential and commercial clients can choose whichever structure fits their budget and property.

Storm Response, Every Time It Snows

Michigan winters don't follow a schedule, and neither do we. Once you're on our route, our crew monitors conditions and dispatches based on the accumulation thresholds in your plan — including overnight and early-morning storms — so your property is handled before you're checking the forecast. It's the same idea whether you're a homeowner who wants one less thing to worry about or a business that can't afford a closed parking lot.
