At four in the morning in February the ice out on Millham Reservoir ticks and settles, and the only lights moving anywhere in Marlborough are amber ones on the roof of a plow truck. Kadosh Landscaping, Inc runs those hours — driveways opened, walkways cut down to bare concrete, salt spread ahead of the freeze that always follows a storm here. The goal is simple and it never changes: a homeowner steps outside at seven and the day is already possible. When the reservoirs let go in spring the same attention turns to lawns, to mowing and trimming and clearing away everything winter tore loose. It is a year built out of early starts, and this city rewards them.
