"AMAZING! I highly recommend this company. I received a call immediately after I submitted my request AND, they were able to come within hours! I had a HUGE pile of debris from a big remodeling project and they took it all and cleaned up really well. They were very conscientious, friendly and reasonably priced. I will tell everyone to use them!! :-)"

"I was desperate for someone to mow my lawn and get rid of poison ivy vines. Patrick and his men came out, out of their way, to save me. Patrick is such a sweetie, very nice and polite and listened to what I needed done. He and his guys worked so hard and did such a good job. I'm just disappointed that they aren't closer to me so I can have them maintain my lawn."

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.

When starting the engine, you typically leave the choke on a snowblower in the "choke" or "closed" position. After starting, let the engine run for a few minutes to warm up. Then, gradually open the choke, moving it to the "open" or "run" position, allowing more air into the engine and transitioning to a normal fuel-air mixture. The exact duration varies based on the snowblower model and ambient temperature, but as a general rule, you should open the choke once the engine has stabilized and runs smoothly, typically within a few minutes.

Costs range from $50 to $150 per hour, depending on the property size and service frequency.

Before firing up your snowblower, ensure that essential switches are in the correct starting position. Take a moment to double-check the throttle, fuel shut-off, and choke, ensuring they're firmly set to the "on" position. Precision in verifying each switch's alignment is crucial, so don't rush through this critical step.

The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.
