How much does snow removal cost?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-annual-snow-removal-contract-cost.htm">cost of a snow removal service</a> is around <b>$85</b>, but this depends heavily on the amount of snow, your location, and the seasonal demand. An annual snow removal contract will typically cost between <b>$200 and $600</b> for the season. Keep in mind that single services are usually based on the amount of snow, with every six inches adding to your total. You can expect to pay between <b>$40 and $200 </b>in most cases or as high as <b>$500 or more</b> for excessive snowfall. In many cases, it’s more affordable to enter into an annual contract.</p></div>

Do heated roof cables prevent ice damming?

• <div><p>Yes, and they do it exceptionally well. Heated roof cables have two purposes: melting snow and preventing ice buildup. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-causes-ice-dams.htm">Ice damming</a> <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-prevent-ice-dams.htm">happens when ice forms on the roof</a> (usually where the roof meets the gutter) and melts stubbornly slowly, causing moisture to enter the roof itself and, therefore, the home. </p></div>

How long does a snowblower run on a full tank?

• <div><p>That depends on the size of your snow blower and how efficiently it uses fuel. Most snow blowers will last between 1 and 2 hours on a full tank of gas. Larger blowers tend to use fuel more quickly and need refilling more often.</p><p>Keep in mind, the average snow blowing project for a home driveway takes around 30 minutes. Large driveways and yards will take around an hour. A full tank of gas should be more than enough for snow removal, although the height of the snowfall will have an effect, too.</p></div>

Q: Does knocking down icicles help ice dams?

• <div><p>Knocking down icicles won&rsquo;t help prevent ice dams, as the dams form on the bottoms of your roof slopes and not on the gutters themselves. However, removing icicles can reduce the risk of injury if they form over heavily trafficked areas, and it can help prevent permanent damage to your gutters. Just be sure to wear safety equipment and always stay on the ground while knocking them down.</p></div>

Q: How do you winterize your landscaping?

• <div><p>The process to winterize your landscaping depends on the plants you have, but generally speaking, you should rake your lawn to avoid leaves from smothering your grass and leading to mold and fungi growth, wrap young trees to protect from fluctuating temperatures, and fertilize your lawn to provide some nutrients for the grass through the colder temperatures. You can also consider marking off small trees and shrubs to avoid accidentally damaging them with snow removal tools.</p></div>

It was a wonderful job. They actually climbed the tree (about 50 ft.) and cut off the upper branches so that they would not fall onto the garage roof. It was amazing. The care and skill that they have is beyond excellent. I would recommend them to anyone for any tree service.
