"We had an incredible experience working with Wicked Hardscapes! From beginning to end Luke and his crew were absolutely top-tier. The efficiency that they handled our project was impressive; they stayed on schedule and completed the work more quickly than anticipated without any sacrifice to quality! Communication was seamless throughout the entire project. Luke was always available to answer out questions, provide updates and offer helpful suggestions based on his extensive expertise. It is clear that he knows all the ins and outs of the hardscaping industry like the back of his hand. His attention to detail really shines in the final result. As icing on the cake, his pricing was very fair and affordable, particularly considering the high-level of craftsmanship. We could not be happier with our new patio space and we highly recommend Wicked Hardscapes for any project!"

Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

Roof raking helps clear snowfall from your roof and, in turn, you hope that this prevents ice dams. But can roof raking actually cause them? Generally, no, it cannot. But you should note that while, in some cases, you might successfully prevent ice dams from forming near the edge of your roof by keeping it cleared with a roof rake, they could still form higher up on the roof, where you are unable to reach. This may leave you wondering: Does roof raking prevent ice dams? While it is not a 100% guaranteed way to prevent them, it does help.

Both rock salt and ice melt are naturally occurring salts. Rock salt is sodium chloride, which is the same as table salt. Ice melt products can be made from a combination of salts like magnesium chloride and calcium chloride or can be those salts alone.

Rock salt comes in large crystals, so it helps provide traction on icy surfaces, whereas ice melt products need to be mixed with sand to provide traction. Ice melt products work at lower temperatures than rock salt, so they might be a better choice if you have a harsh winter climate.

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 damage to your roof, which can lead to needing costly repairs. 

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’s best to hire a snow removal professional to clear heavy snowfall from your roof as soon as possible.

Costs depend on property size, snowfall frequency, and additional services like de-icing or hauling snow offsite.

While it’s less common than on other kinds of roofs, yes, ice dams can form on metal roofs. Metal roofs, particularly those with snow guards installed, can still accumulate ice at the roof edge, although ice dams on metal roofs are less likely to cause roof or interior damage than on traditional asphalt shingle roofs.
