Shaffer's Concrete & Excavation

About Shaffer's Concrete & Excavation

Everything in the Cumberland Valley stands on limestone — the springs come up out of it, the fields drain down into it, and every apron and lot poured across it meets winter head-on. Shaffer's Concrete & Excavation turns that same ground sense toward snow removal in Carlisle, reading where a lot pitches, where the melt will run, and where it will glaze over by four in the morning. Plow work here is a matter of angles and stacking: pushing to the right corners, leaving the drains open, keeping the piles clear of the entrances. The small hours are the whole point — a lot scraped bare and the walkways cut square while the town is still dark. Come daylight nobody has to think about it, which is exactly the idea.
