How our ice prevention service works
When freezing rain, snow, or overnight refreezing is in the forecast, our team applies ice‑melt products to help keep high‑traffic surfaces safer and more manageable.
Pre‑salting before a storm helps prevent ice from bonding to concrete and asphalt, lowering the temperature necessary for water to freeze.
Service can include:
Driveway and private roadway salting
Sidewalk and walkway salting
Steps, landings, and key entry points
Small parking areas on residential or light‑commercial properties
Standalone visits start at $100 per property, with pricing adjusted based on size, layout, and conditions.
Residential ice prevention for homeowners
Our residential ice prevention service is ideal for Knoxville homeowners who want safer driveways and walkways without scrambling for salt or DIY treatments at the last minute.
For homeowners, we focus on:
Driveways, front walks, and entry steps
Heavily shaded or sloped areas that freeze first
Spot‑treating known trouble spots and refreeze areas
Ice prevention and salting are included with Lawn Care Plans and Premium Home/Business Total Exterior Care Plans, so your yard and your winter safety are handled by the same team.
Ice prevention for businesses, HOAs, and facilities
Commercial properties and HOAs have higher foot and vehicle traffic, which makes ice management even more critical.
Our ice prevention and salting services help Knoxville businesses, churches, and communities keep entrances, sidewalks, and drive lanes safer for customers, tenants, and employees.
Common commercial applications:
Small parking lots and drive lanes
Sidewalks, accessible routes, and crosswalks on the property
Entry steps, ramps, and loading areas
Business ice prevention can be scheduled as needed, or incorporated into year-round Premium Business Total Exterior Care Plans, alongside lawn care, parking lot sweeping, and other general exterior maintenance.
Why proactive ice prevention matters
Pretreating surfaces before winter weather hits can reduce ice buildup, make shoveling or clearing easier, and cut down on slip‑and‑fall risks.
For both homeowners and property managers, proactive salting is an inexpensive way to protect people, vehicles, and your reputation during Knoxville’s winter events.
Knox Exterior Care Co. helps you plan ahead so you’re not scrambling once the driveway, walk, or lot is already icy.
