About us

We look after the outside of your property so you don't have to

We're not another plow contractor on your vendor list. We take responsibility for keeping your property safe, open and accessible, and we bring the people, equipment and systems to back that up.

How we work

Small-company attention, big-company equipment

Worry Free has been clearing snow in East Ottawa for 29 winters. The residential side of the company looks after thousands of homes every season, with its own fleet, seasonal crews, yards and a dispatch team that's seen every kind of storm this city produces.

Worry Free Commercial puts all of that behind a deliberately small group of commercial and institutional properties: the ones that need their own plan, tighter standards and one person who picks up the phone when things go wrong.

That's the whole idea. You get a small company's attention with a large company's fleet behind it.

  • 29 winters in East Ottawa
  • Our own loaders, tractors, plow trucks and sidewalk machines
  • Our own yards, salt storage and dispatch
  • A small commercial client list, so your site gets real attention
  • A plan written for your site, not a standard package
  • A review after every major storm

Operating philosophy

Solutions, not excuses.

Record snowfall, freezing rain, a city grader burying your entrance, a salt shortage, a machine breaking down mid-storm. All of it happens, and none of it is your problem to solve. Our job is to figure out the fix, get the right people and equipment there, and then tell you what happened.

Equipment & crews

The right machine for the site

Which equipment we send is part of your plan. A tight condo lot doesn't get the same machine as an industrial yard, and walkways get their own crews and machines rather than whatever's left over.

Wheel loaders
Box plows and pushers for large lots, roads and industrial yards where a lot of snow has to move fast.
Tractors
Nimble machines for condo lots, tight ring roads and drive aisles where a loader can't work cleanly.
Trucks & plows
Route trucks for entrances, drive aisles and priority access, plus rapid response during storms.
Sidewalk machines
Walkway machines and shovel crews, so the surfaces people walk on are cleared and salted to their own standard.
Salting equipment
Lot and walkway spreaders that record how much salt goes down on every pass.
Removal capacity
Loaders and trucks to move or haul snow away when the piles start eating your parking.

Where we work

Where we work, and why we don't go further

Fast response depends on being close. We keep our clients in East Ottawa so our equipment, crews and salt are never far from your property. That's what makes a 2.5 cm trigger and overnight completion promises we can actually keep.

If your property is just outside the area, ask anyway. We'll either take it on properly or tell you straight that we're not the right fit.
