About Tatum Landscaping, LLC Kathy Tatum, President

Freezing rain announces itself first as sound — a fine ticking against the glass, nothing like snow — and by two in the morning every lot along Cleveland Avenue and Schrock Road is wearing a skin of it. That is the February that central Ohio actually delivers most years: less deep powder, more glaze, more overnight refreeze. Tatum Landscaping, LLC, with Kathy Tatum as president, works snow removal against exactly that — plowing drives and lots, clearing the walks and entries by hand, and putting salt down where the melt will lock up again before daylight. It is night work, in the hours nobody sees, out to County Line Road and back. And then the morning happens the way mornings are supposed to: cars turning in, feet on solid footing, no one giving the pavement a second thought.
