Q: What month is the best time to buy a snow blower?

• <div><p>The best time to buy a snow blower is typically around May to early June. This is when most manufacturers introduce new models, and quantities are limited&mdash;once early summer rolls around, the focus shifts to lawn mower production. As the new models are released, you may find a wider selection of models, potential discounts or clearance sales on older models, and greater availability, ensuring you are well-prepared for the upcoming winter season.</p></div>

Q: How do you minimize the environmental impact of ice melt products?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s instructions and don&rsquo;t use too much.</p></div>

Q: Is safe to walk on a roof with snow?

• <div><p>It is a bad idea to try to walk on a roof with snow on it. In fact, you should stay off your roof all year long, even when it is dry and sunny outside. There are too many things that can go wrong, and one misstep can cause serious injury or even death.</p><p>Rather, if you need to get something done on your roof, call in a pro. They have the right experience and know-how to get things done safely on a snowy roof, including snow removal.</p></div>

Q: How much snow is too much snow on a roof?

• <div><p>Generally, snow removal from a roof should occur once <b>over six inches of snow</b> accumulates, especially if you notice that ice dams have formed. Without <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/7-questions-ask-hiring-ice-dam-removal-company.htm">ice dams</a>, you can let the snow accumulation hit 12 inches before removing it. However, the amount of snow that is too much for your roof also depends on the sturdiness of your roof and the compactness of the snow. If your roof needs maintenance or has structural issues, it&rsquo;s best not to let the snow accumulate too much for fear of collapsing.</p></div>

After getting several estimates to either recover or remove & repave my driveway, I hired R&W mainly because the estimator (Mike) spent more time looking at the job and explaining the pro's & con's of each. I went with the full remove & replace that he recommended. The job was done in stages...
