About A.A. Welding & General Contracting

The stone stacks of the old Lock Ridge furnace still stand at the edge of Alburtis, cold now, patient through whatever winter brings. A.A. Welding & General Contracting keeps its own sort of watch in that weather — plowing driveways and lots, opening walkways, spreading salt on the packed spots that refuse to let go. Storms come into the Lehigh Valley from the northwest and can leave four inches or fourteen, and the truck rolls either way, usually well before the streetlights quit. Pavement scraped back to black while the rest of the street is still white is a good sight at any hour. By the time the borough wakes, the way out is already open.
