There is a particular quiet to a wide, empty lot at one in the morning with three inches down and nobody in it yet. Thelen Landscape Inc works Novi in those hours — plowing lots and long drives, opening walkways, treating the glaze that forms when a daytime melt refreezes toward dawn. A storm here can begin as rain and end as ice, and the timing of when you push and when you salt decides how everyone's morning goes. Having a property open before the first headlights swing in is the entire measure of the work. Snow removal in Novi and the surrounding towns.
