"We had a patio and fire pit installed in 2021 by Mike and his crew. I was sent to pick out the paver and fire pit stone styles and sent all the information to Mike. Weeks go by (supply shortage/issues from the pandemic) and the pavers come in the “grand” size version of the pavers I sent him. He apologized and said we could reorder the other size but it would take weeks and, because they were smaller, it would be more expensive for installation. Annoying. We decided to go ahead, despite them not having the texture we would have gone with if ordering the grand size (we decided on smooth for the smaller size and if we would have went with the larger “grand” size, would have done textured). Not a great way to start the project. The pavers go in and we find the fire pit was installed with the wrong stones as well. We ordered tumbled, they installed smooth. Couldn’t really go back since everything was glued down. Not sure why I even bothered picking the materials out to begin with? Another disappointment, especially with such a large investment. They had some pretty awful cuts at first in the border and came back to fix those for the most part. Next issue was the sand - they tried a new brand on our patio and the sand needed to be installed at least 3 separate times because it would fail and come out of the cracks with any rain/water. The rock beds we agreed upon were not prepped, leaving me with the job of moving all of the topsoil from the driveway to the backyard. This wouldn’t have been as big of a deal if not for the steep slope and lack of gate since we couldn’t walk on that side of the house until the ground firmed up again and the new grass had a chance to grow. I actually had to remove part of our fence on the other side and make a ramp for the wheelbarrow. It would have taken them maybe 10 minutes using the bobcat as we originally planned. In addition, the fire pit ring stone cracked within a few months due to the internal ring (or entire fire pit installation) being off-center and putting pressure on it during the winter. They also damaged our tree with the bobcat. We had a new fire pit ring installed by the crew that remains unglued, cracked pavers and a fence gate that is still much lower and difficult to open/latch after they replaced it following finished the patio. Our fence was also damaged by the bobcat. I wish I didn’t have to write this, but I’ve reached out to Mike each summer to try to resolve these issues and he has now stopped responding entirely. We were told there is a 5-year warranty and clearly that is not honored by this company. Would not recommend."

Before hiring a snow removal company, it’s essential first to ask questions to understand the details thoroughly. Since every company has different policies and snow removal methods, it’s best to clarify upfront before you’re left in a heap of snow. Some starting questions to consider include:
What are the procedures for a snowstorm? Do I need to call you each time, or do you automatically come out?
Do you wait until after the snow has stopped falling or make multiple passes throughout the storm?
What is your method of removal?
Do you use salt after the snow is removed? Is it pet-safe?
How does your billing work? Do you bill extra for blizzard conditions?
Can I sign an annual contract, or do you bill for each storm?
The cost of an annual snow removal contract is $200 to $600. This cost is significantly impacted by the area you live in. Places that don’t receive considerable snowfall might charge less for an annual contract, and those areas that get heaps of snow throughout the fall and winter can expect to pay on the higher side. In addition, property size, expected response time, and extra services like clearing a sidewalk can also impact your cost.
Yes, most states require that snow removal companies be insured under workers' compensation. This protects the employees financially if an injury were to happen (and when dealing with ice and snow, it’s possible that injury could occur). In addition, most states require snow removal companies to be covered under general liability, which would help cover the cost of any property damage incurred during the removal process.
Depending on where you live and your average snowfall, removing snow from your property yourself with either a shovel or a snowblower is reasonable. A snow shovel costs around $60, and a snowblower can range from $100 to $2,300. However, taking a DIY approach to this isn’t always the best option. In these cases, it’s best to hire a professional snow removal company:
If you have a large property or an extended area that needs clearing
If you have certain health conditions, such as mobility issues
If you want to save time or need the snow removed ASAP
If you live in an area with frequent heavy snowfall and want to offset your time spent
If you lack the space to store snow removal equipment
It’s no surprise that removing snow from your driveway makes coming and going significantly easier and lowers the risk of falling. However, it’s important to note that if you don’t remove snow from your driveway, you run the risk of damaging your paving. As the snow melts, water can seep into your driveway. This can lead to the formation of cracks. When the water freezes, this expands the minor cracks, leading to more significant damage.
