"Fish’s Services have removed snow for us all winter. Would highly recommend. We receive a text when it has snowed or when snow is expected asking if we would like our driveway/sidewalks done. We really appreciate when they reach out to us when it snows, so it’s one less thing we have to worry about. They do a great job and always show up when expected. Would recommend."

"His bid was very competitive and I knew from previous experience he would go above and beyond to make sure it was right. 

Mike is easy to work with, answers all your questions clearly and speaks his mind on the best way to do things.  That's something you can't get from a seller contracted crew! 

I recommend Mike unconditionally."

"Chris could not have been easier or nicer to work with. He contacted me within 10 minutes of my request and had the work I needed completed the very next day. I was out of town and he texted me pictures of the A+ completed work. He was also able to accept electronic payment via Venmo. Highly recommend and will be using Chris regularly."

Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Removing snow from your roof can help prevent ice dams, but the best thing to do is address insulation issues in your attic. If you do decide to remove the snow manually, you should always use a roof rake rather than a shovel. You shouldn’t climb your snowy roof in any circumstance, and roof rake allows you to remove the snow from the ground or a ladder. For the best results, remove snow as soon as possible after it falls.

That depends on the size of your snow blower and how efficiently it uses fuel. Most snow blowers will last between 1 and 2 hours on a full tank of gas. Larger blowers tend to use fuel more quickly and need refilling more often.

Keep in mind, the average snow blowing project for a home driveway takes around 30 minutes. Large driveways and yards will take around an hour. A full tank of gas should be more than enough for snow removal, although the height of the snowfall will have an effect, too.

The best snow removal tools include a snowblower or a plastic shovel since they're less likely to damage your driveway's surface. Metal shovels can crack asphalt and concrete. It's also a good idea to install driveway markers since they can make it much easier for you to identify where you should shovel without damaging the surrounding yard. 

The cost of removing snow from a roof averages between $300 and $700. However, this cost can range from $200 to $3,000, depending on the size of your roof, the amount of snow, and roof accessibility. 

Since snowfall can range from light powder to heavy and condensed snow, part of the price of roof snow removal depends on the amount and type of snow. For 12 inches of snow, you can expect to pay between $200 and $2,000 for this job. However, for 24 inches of snow, that price rises to $300 to $3,000.
