Do snow removal companies need to be insured?

• <div><p>Yes, most states require that snow removal companies be insured under workers' compensation. This protects the employees financially if an injury were to happen (and when dealing with ice and snow, it’s possible that injury could occur). In addition, most states require snow removal companies to be covered under general liability, which would help cover the cost of any property damage incurred during the removal process.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain safety during snow season?

• <div><p>Schedule regular snow removal, apply salt or sand to icy areas, and mark hazards like curbs or drains.</p></div>

Q: Can I use hot water to melt my driveway?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re very short on time and need a solution ASAP. However, it will only work across a small area, after which there&rsquo;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&rsquo;ll want to keep the water away from your car.</p></div>

Q: How can I save money on snow removal?

• <div><p>The best way to save money on snow removal is to sign up for a seasonal contract that guarantees service throughout the entire winter. Most companies charge between <b>$200 and $600</b> for this service, and they&rsquo;ll often give you a break on the price if you extend annually. Of course, savings will depend on your area. If you live in a moderate climate where snowfall may or may not occur, you could pay more than you need during a light snow year. Still, it&rsquo;s usually a safe bet to sign a seasonal contract.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to remove snow from a roof?

• <div><p>The cost of removing snow from a roof averages between <b>$300 and $700</b>. However, this cost can range from <b>$200</b> to <b>$3,000</b>, depending on the size of your roof, the amount of snow, and roof accessibility. </p><p>Since snowfall can range from light powder to heavy and condensed snow, part of the price of roof snow removal depends on the amount and type of snow. For 12 inches of snow, you can expect to pay between <b>$200 and $2,000</b> for this job. However, for 24 inches of snow, that price rises to <b>$300 to $3,000</b>. </p></div>
