7 pros in Victoria
Snow in Victoria is rare, but it can be heavy when it comes. Environment Canada's 1991–2020 normals for Victoria Airport list an extreme daily snowfall of 64.5 cm in December, 29.2 cm in January and 26.4 cm in February. That means a single storm can leave you with a driveway and a sidewalk to clear with little warning. The city's Streets and Traffic Bylaw requires businesses and residents to clear the sidewalk in front of their property by 10 a.m. after a snowfall, and a fine applies for each ticketed offence, per day. When you hire someone for plowing or snow removal, ask whether the sidewalk is included in the job, and what time they can reach you after snow stops. Ask for the service terms in writing, including how they handle repeat visits during a multi-day snowfall. For roof snow removal, ask about safety equipment and insurance before anyone goes up.

What to know in Victoria
In the December 2025 windstorm about 90,000 BC Hydro customers lost power, and Victoria was named among the hardest-hit areas. BC Hydro said trees and branches were more susceptible to wind damage after several years of drought.
BC Hydro's report on the December 20 windstorm says more than 750,000 customers lost power, and nearly 350,000 (about 80 per cent of customers) were on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands. It also notes the 2006 windstorm hit Vancouver Island.
Before you hire
Put it in a written contract: the work, price, deposit, start and finish dates, warranty, permits and clean-up. Paying cash to skip it leaves you no recourse.
Ask about liability insurance and workers’ compensation cover before anyone works on your roof or property.
Get written quotes from at least three contractors for the same work, and check references from recent clients.
Questions about hiring in Victoria
When do I have to clear my sidewalk in Victoria?
Victoria's Streets and Traffic Bylaw requires businesses and residents to clear the sidewalk in front of their property by 10 a.m. after a snowfall. A fine applies for each ticketed offence, per day. If you hire a crew, confirm that the sidewalk is included and that they can finish before that time. City of Victoria (source, opens in a new tab)
How much snow can Victoria get in a day?
Environment Canada's 1991–2020 normals for Victoria Airport list an extreme daily snowfall of 64.5 cm in December, 29.2 cm in January and 26.4 cm in February. Snow is not frequent, but a heavy day is possible, so it helps to know who you would call before it arrives. Environment and Climate Change Canada (source, opens in a new tab)
What should a snow clearing quote include?
Ask for the areas covered, such as the driveway, walkways and sidewalk, and what triggers a visit, such as a snowfall depth. Ask about timing, how repeat visits are handled, where snow will be piled, and who pays for damage. Get all of it in writing before work starts.
How do I compare snow removal quotes?
Compare like with like: the same areas, the same trigger for a visit and the same response time. Ask whether the business carries liability insurance, and whether it is a one-time clear or a seasonal arrangement. A lower quote may leave out the sidewalk or repeat visits.
