• <div><p>While most people associate defrosting icy roads with salt, you can also use sugar for a similar result. Sugar lowers the freezing point of water, melting ice in a pinch.</p><p>However, sugar doesn’t melt ice as well as salt because it doesn’t separate the water molecules as efficiently. So, if you need to quickly melt a stubborn patch of ice on your driveway or walkway, it’s best to use salt over sugar for faster results.</p></div>

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>

How much does a snow blower cost?

• <div><p>The price of snow blowers varies significantly and depends on the type, brand, and model you buy.<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-use-snowblower.htm"> Snow blowers cost</a> anywhere from <b>$950 to $1,500 </b>or more. Two-stage and three-stage snow blowers are more costly for self-propelled models with additional features such as power steering and heated hand grips.</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: What happens if you don't shovel your roof?

• <div><p>Clearing snow from your roof can be a tedious and time-consuming job. Even so, it is extremely important to maintain your roof during the winter months. You can help prevent ice dams and avoid roof collapse.</p><p>As a side note, rather than shoveling your roof, you should always use a roof rake to modify the job. Otherwise, call in a professional.</p></div>

Hired for junk removal (old treadmill). Showed up on time, with a proper vehicle for the load and had a copilot to assist. It's obvious this wasn't their first rodeo. Simple, fast and courteous. Nuf said!
