How do I thaw frozen gutters?

• <div><p>If you do end up with frozen gutters, it's important to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-can-i-thaw-frozen-gutter-or-downspout.htm">thaw them correctly</a>. Thawing your gutters slowly is far safer than trying to break apart the ice. Once you get through the ice, bring in a gutter professional to check out the effectiveness of your heated system.</p></div>

Is a three-stage snow blower better than a two-stage?

• <div><p>When it comes to deciding whether a two-stage or three-stage snow blower is better, you must consider the amount of snowfall you get, the size of the area, and your budget. </p><p>A three-stage snow blower is more efficient at clearing higher volumes of snow quicker and removing ice build-up. It’s ideal for commercial use and removing snow from large areas. Make sure to compare <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/snow-removal-equipment-types.htm">various types of snow removal equipment</a> to ensure you purchase the one that is best for your needs. </p></div>

Q: How do you start a snowblower after sitting?

• <div><p>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 &quot;on&quot; position. Precision in verifying each switch's alignment is crucial, so don't rush through this critical step.</p></div>

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: Can I use a torch to melt the ice in front of my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to use a torch to melt ice on your garage door, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. It&rsquo;s very easy to bring the flame too close to the door, which can melt the weather stripping or even the garage door itself. You&rsquo;ll melt ice quickly with a torch, but the damage you&rsquo;re likely to cause can end up costing you a few hundred dollars to fix, which isn&rsquo;t worth it. Instead, we recommend pouring hot water over the frozen area or using a less intense heat source, like a hair dryer or space heater.</p></div>

Although I sent photos of my current countertops, I was never told it would be an extra charge to remove them, so they did not charge me. However, I ordered a sink and faucet from them also and, as has been done in my previous homes, I assumed they would install the faucet but no, when completed...

John arrived 10minutes early, (all by himself) removed both riser covers, pumped tank completely empty, replaced both covers. He did mention it would be less than his quote: because it was only 1250 gallons not the 1500 which I had told him!! I have never had better service.
