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>

Q: What does home winterization involve?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s the reverse of home de-winterization. To winterize, you purge your plumbing system (including your water heater and all piping) of water. Some experts also recommend filling fixtures with an antifreeze solution. Other tasks involve <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-steps-winterize-your-sprinkler-system.htm">winterizing sprinklers</a>, sealing foundation vents, check weatherproofing around doors and windows, and more.</p></div>

Q: Is an annual snow removal contract worth it?

• <div><p>Whether or not an annual snow removal contract is worth it depends mainly on location. If you live in an area with frequent heavy snowfall, a yearly contract could be better than paying per clearing. If you live in an area where it only snows a few times a year, paying per snowstorm may be a better option.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to remove snow from my sidewalk and driveway?

• <div><p>In most municipalities, snow removal is compulsory in public spaces, including the sidewalk in front of your house, so you need to remove snow there. You could face fines for failure to clear your sidewalk in a timely manner&mdash;usually within 24 hours of the snowfall stopping. More importantly, your sidewalk needs to be safe for pedestrians to use, and you could face legal issues if someone slips on your sidewalk because you failed to clear it. Sidewalk removal services might seem expensive, but they&rsquo;re well worth it to avoid these issues.</p></div>

Q: Can I handle snow removal myself?

• <div><p>While DIY is possible for small areas, professional services provide fast, efficient removal for large properties or heavy snowfall.</p></div>
