Q: Do you need to clear snow from the roof?

• <div><p>While removing every snowflake from your roof is unnecessary, you should remove a significant buildup of snow. Since snow is wet and heavy, it can easily cause <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/did-storm-damage-your-roof.htm">damage to your roof</a>, which can lead to needing costly repairs. </p><p>Additionally, when the snow melts but has nowhere to go and refreezes, it can create an ice dam, causing mold concerns due to water leaking into your attic and ceiling. For these reasons, it&rsquo;s best to hire a snow removal professional to clear heavy snowfall from your roof as soon as possible. </p></div>

Q: What month is the best time to buy a snow blower?

• <div><p>The best time to buy a snow blower is typically around May to early June. This is when most manufacturers introduce new models, and quantities are limited&mdash;once early summer rolls around, the focus shifts to lawn mower production. As the new models are released, you may find a wider selection of models, potential discounts or clearance sales on older models, and greater availability, ensuring you are well-prepared for the upcoming winter season.</p></div>

Q: Can I put salt on my roof for ice dams?

• <div><p>It is not advisable to use salt on your roof to prevent or remove ice dams. It&rsquo;s not only mostly ineffective but can also cause serious damage to your roof itself. Salt can rust metal, damage masonry, pit shingles, and cause runoff that&rsquo;s damaging to plants and animals. </p></div>

Q: Is there a minimum amount of snow required to use a snowblower?

• <div><p>There is no hard and fast rule about using a snowblower on a specific amount of inches, but most snow removal experts suggest using one on 2 or more inches of snow for best results. This will also depend on what type of surface you&rsquo;re working on and whether the snow is dry or wet. </p></div>

Q: Can snow be too heavy for a snow blower?

• <div><p>Snow can be too heavy for a snow blower and cause clogs in the chute. However, having the correct type of blower for the snow conditions can reduce the chances of it being too heavy for it to handle. Another trick for preventing clogs is to make multiple passes while it snows rather than waiting for it to finish snowing. </p></div>

"We hired ZR to prep an area for concrete and also to grade our lot. Both were done extremely well. We had a flooding rainstorm this week, but it all flowed away from the house and pooled around the edges of our lot thanks to the grading being done correctly. Jesse was timely coming to give an estimate and performing the work. Pricing was fair and a little lower than some. We are very happy with ZR"
