"Ned called me to let me know he was on the way to unpack and install my mattress and remove the old one. He was very polite, efficient, and professional. I already plan to have him remove some carpeting in my home and we are discussing some underlayment installation as well. I would highly recommend Ned."

"I have a very long driveway, almost a mile long through the woods and I moved to Barton’s snow plowing because I could not count on previous business. Barton’s is always punctual and completes work as expected. I would highly recommend"

Snow Removal questions, answered by experts

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

Some commercial services use sand when clearing ice, but that’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’t help melt hardened ice. Rely on salt or other de-icing methods to fully melt away stubborn ice.

You can use hot water to melt ice from your driveway, but there are some serious caveats. Very hot water can quickly melt ice and remove it, which is helpful if you’re very short on time and need a solution ASAP. However, it will only work across a small area, after which there’s a chance the water will freeze again. The sudden clash of temperatures is dangerous for fragile materials, notably windows and other glass, so you’ll want to keep the water away from your car.

Rubbing alcohol may also remove ice from your driveway in a pinch. It has a lower freezing point than water, which expedites the unfreezing process. Pour 70 percent isopropyl alcohol into a quart or half-gallon spray bottle and spray it on your driveway. You do not have to dilute it with water.

Magnesium chloride is a relatively gentle ice melt product and, if used correctly, should not cause much damage to your property. The most important thing is to be sure you apply it according to the manufacturer’s instructions and don’t use too much.
