With winter around the corner, it’s time to ready your snow clearing equipment! Using a shovel to clear a path during a massive snowstorm can be tedious and cold. Snowblowers, on the other hand, make the removal of snow much easier. As motorized machines, they can clear large heaps of snow quickly and effortlessly. Unfortunately, as this outdoor equipment is required seasonally, it experiences massive downtime post-winter, which often means it is stored away and forgotten until the next winter season.

Regularly maintaining your snowblower will ensure that you get the most out of your investment in terms of effectiveness and longevity. However, before you think servicing is an optional requirement, remember that replacing a snowblower is very costly. On the contrary, servicing your equipment frequently is much cheaper.

As you can see, maintaining snowblower saves you time, money, and headaches. To keep your snowblower in tip-top shape, reach out to PML Contracting, for excellent snowblower maintenance in Ottawa, ON.

Our Snowblower Tune-Up is the most comprehensive in the industry with an eighteen point inspection that leaves you, the consumer with peace of mind that your equipment is effectively taken care of. Our inspections include:

Who can benefit from our maintenance service?
Anyone with a snowblower of any brand and age can take advantage of our Snowblower Tune-Up. The servicing cost is approximately $100 and includes the value-added proposition of an eighteen-point inspection. Usually, a tune-up includes a carburetor clean up if the machine doesn’t start. But, when we clean up carburetors, we take them apart and inspect them, ultrasonically clean them, re-assemble and test for seat integrity.

Another benefit is that we provide you with the right knowledge to avoid the same snowblower issues from recurring in the future. We have over forty years of experience in equipment maintenance, and our technicians are hard workers who look for the root cause of any issue and are eager to educate clients on how to avoid them.

I’m Paul Lalonde, the proud owner of PML Contracting.

I look forward to sharing my story. I hope that you will enjoy getting to know me better.

I’ve always been a leader and very driven to be the best I can be, so I felt self-employment was the best option for me to be successful. I felt there was potential for growth in ground management services, so I bought my first landscaping truck in 1988, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Over the past twenty-one years, I have grown from owning a couple of trucks to closing multiple landscaping contracts with the City of Ottawa, OC Transpo, and Major Ottawa School Boards.

I’ve also expanded my portfolio and now rent out heavy equipment through the Ottawa Region, which includes dump trucks, backhoes, and excavators. In addition to this, I run a small-engine repair shop that supplies small parts.

I aim to render quality services at a reasonable price, and my quality craftsmanship has enhanced my integrity. I also believe what sets me apart from the others is my hard work ethic and the excellent communication that I maintain with clients.

It’s rewarding to have a team of reliable individuals that I can count on to assist me in my endeavor. I do my best to empower their careers and make them successful. My kids have also shown an eagerness to come on board and continue my legacy, which is extremely pleasing.

When I am not landscaping, you can find me at the Le Circuit Quyon racing track, which is a sister concern of my firm. I’ve always participated in a wide variety of motorsports and began go-karting in the ’90s. I then purchased a local go-kart track in 2008 and opened it to the public to promote local racing to the Ottawa and Gatineau regions.

I have enjoyed sharing my story about the things which matter to me and how they influence the way I do business.

If you or someone you know could benefit from my expertise in grounds management services in Ottawa, Ontario, I invite you to get in touch. Please visit my website at www.pmlcontracting.ca.

Sincerely,

Paul
