"Pitch perfect roofing performed an inspection for us, and then helped us when we met with the insurance company inspector. The inspector agreed with the damage the company found, but unfortunately our insurance company wouldn't cover it, so we didn't end up replacing our roof. Even still, Kolton went out of his way to make sure our needs were met. He was always punctual when he came over, and was easy to communicate with texts.

"Failed to show up on agreed upon work date due to overbooking. Bid vinyl for an aluminum replacement, then was unresponsive about bidding aluminum. When we decided to go elsewhere, six months later they sent us an invoice for an additional, arbitrary $3k for work not performed. We disputed the invoice and never heard back until we got another invoice another seven months later seeking double the original amount including monthly interest and an ‘overhead & profit’ fee."

Evans Home Repair, Inc is a full-service roofing and construction company that offers excellent home building services with fully trained and qualified professionals. 5 Employees with workers compensation.

"A year after having my roof shingles redone, I was found to have a few damaged shingles attached to a loose satellite TV antenna base following a bad windstorm. There was debate as to whether this was a roof repair guarantee issue or not. Jason Evans decided to be honorable and made the repair on the same day at no charge. I have found him and all his workers to be decent, pleasant, highly competent, and work neatly and very clean in all the work done for me. I plane to use Evans Home Repair for all my future home repairs. My neighbors have complimented me on my new roof."

Roof Ice and Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

While most people associate defrosting icy roads with salt, you can also use sugar for a similar result. Sugar lowers the freezing point of water, melting ice in a pinch.

However, sugar doesn’t melt ice as well as salt because it doesn’t separate the water molecules as efficiently. So, if you need to quickly melt a stubborn patch of ice on your driveway or walkway, it’s best to use salt over sugar for faster results.

Yes, and they do it exceptionally well. Heated roof cables have two purposes: melting snow and preventing ice buildup. Ice damming happens when ice forms on the roof (usually where the roof meets the gutter) and melts stubbornly slowly, causing moisture to enter the roof itself and, therefore, the home.

Snowblowers come in three different sizes: first-, second-, and third-stage blowers. Each additional stage is larger with higher intakes, more powerful, and has more gear options.

A first-stage blower, also called a snow thrower, is usually best for snow 6 to 8 inches or below. Electric snow blowers are usually only available in this size. If you regularly get snow that’s well above six inches, consider a second-stage snow blower. If snowstorms dump 2 to 3 feet of snow repeatedly during winter, you need a third-stage snow blower to tackle it.

Snow removal services cost between $50 and $200, depending on the type and size of the job. Ice-melting services are often offered alongside snow removal and other winter maintenance scheduling. You can contact a local snow removal service to ask about rates in your area, and if they offer residential removal services.

Whether salt melts ice overnight will depend on how low the temperature drops. If temperatures stay around 30 degrees Fahrenheit, you can count on salt melting ice overnight. Otherwise, the lower temperatures get, the less effective the salt is in melting ice, and the more likely you’ll wake up with a slippery driveway the next day.
