About Homeland Contractors

Ashburn does not entirely sleep. Out along the parkways the low grey buildings hum through the night, and the roads and lots that serve them have to be open no matter what the sky is doing. Homeland Contractors runs the winter shift here, plowing lots and drives, clearing walkways wide enough for two people to pass, and spreading salt ahead of the freeze that follows every wet snow in this part of the Piedmont. A storm that starts at nine means a truck out by eleven and passes repeated until the last flake, because one pass is only ever a promise. By the time the sky goes pale over Route 7, the pavement is dark again and the day can start on time.
