Residential Property Maintenance

About Residential Property Maintenance

Not every Lawrence street gets talked about the way Massachusetts Street or the hill by campus does — most of the town is simply quiet residential blocks, cul-de-sacs and driveways that need clearing the same as anywhere else once a Douglas County storm moves through. Residential Property Maintenance works those ordinary streets east of downtown and out toward the edge of town, plowing and shoveling driveways and walkways for houses with no view of the river or the bluffs. The work often runs into the evening as much as the morning, catching the second wave once a daytime sun softens a snowpack that refreezes hard as the light drops. There's no landmark on these blocks, just porch lights and quiet yards, but the driveways matter just as much to the people who use them daily. Clearing them one after another is how an ordinary Lawrence street gets back to being ordinary.
