What is the best snow removal tool for a deck?

• <div><p>Snowblowers are some of the best tools for snow removal because they remove large amounts of snow quickly without bodily harm or damaging your deck. If your snowblower can fit on your deck, it’s a good first line of defense to remove snow quickly and easily. If you don’t have a snowblower, a plastic shovel with a rubber blade is another good choice to remove snow on a deck.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a snow blower on a deck or patio?

• <div><p>Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.</p><p>You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn&rsquo;t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to remove snow from your roof?

• <div><p>There are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/tips-removing-snow-and-ice-your-roof.htm">ways to remove snow from your roof</a>: using a snow rake, salting the roof with calcium chloride, using a rope (cautiously), and using heating cables. It&rsquo;s important to mention that pretty, fluffy, sparkling snow weighs a great deal, and when physically removing snow from a roof, you should be aware of large snow slabs breaking off. These can weigh hundreds of pounds and are a real danger, so be extremely careful anytime you&rsquo;re doing this type of work. </p></div>

Q: Should snow be removed from a deck?

• <div><p>Yes, snow should be removed from a deck to protect it from damage caused by moisture and heavy loads. Shovel the snow off of your deck regularly once it is more than four inches deep. Avoid using salt, which can damage your deck.</p></div>

Q: Can I use cat litter or sand to melt the ice in my driveway?

• <div><p>Some commercial services use <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/sand-vs-salt-for-snow.htm">sand when clearing ice</a>, but that&rsquo;s to add instant traction, not to melt the ice. While you can scatter kitty litter, sand, or similar substances on steps, paths, or porches to improve safety during icy conditions, they won&rsquo;t help melt hardened ice. Rely on salt or other de-icing methods to fully melt away stubborn ice.</p></div>
