"Our project was large for a residential site. Our backyard slopes down by about 4 feet over a stretch of about 12 feet towards a back fence. This slope extends across the width of the property. We needed a large box/platform built against the back of the property to provide a level area to support a 12' x 16' utility shed. Joshua built the platform using railroad ties on three sides (the forth side was level with the original ground). He secured the ties with rebar into the ground and buried horizontal ties perpendicular to the back wall to secure it and prevent bowing. He filled the box with dirt, compressed it, and topped it with white gravel. He surfaced the outside and top of the railroad ties with screwed-in 2'x6' beams to improve the aesthetics of the box. We also wanted three garden bed boxes built, each 4'x8'x18" high and capped around the top edge with 2x6 beams to provide a place to sit while gardening. Joshua built the boxes off site, them brought them to our backyard to an area roughly 10' x 21' that he leveled for this purpose. He separated this area from our lawn using rounded beams which he put in place using rebar stakes pounded through them into the ground. He brought in a generous amount of pea gravel which he placed around the boxes in the enclosed the area. He filled the boxes with a compost/dirt mix. Positive highlights especially worth mentioning: 1) When the shed platform was complete (but before the garden boxes were finished), the shed was delivered to our property and placed on the platform by workers from the shed company. It was a very tight squeeze getting this large shed on the property, up the backyard grade and placed on the platform. I called Josh and let him know what was happening and he dropped what he was doing to make a special trip out and he helped place the shed on the platform. 2) The equipment used to perform the leveling and build the shed platform was heavy and we had relatively new sod before the work started. The equipment wiped out the lawn and Joshua surprised us with new rolls of sod which he installed when the project was complete. Again, we didn't ask for this nor did he require us to pay for it. 3) I purchased a large water tank and heavy rubber mats to be placed into the shed as wall-to-wall flooring. Joshua didn't hesitate to use his flatbed trailer (and time) to go to Tractor Supply to pick up these purchases for us. He then he used his fork lift to bring these items into the shed. All of which he did without asking for additional compensation, and all with only a moment's notice. We gave Joshua a good tip for his efforts - but he didn't know we were going to do this. His motivation the whole time was to make us happy, and throughout the project he always had a very positive "we're going to make this happen" attitude. Thank you, Joshua, for your hard work and an excellent job."

Snow Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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’re very short on time and need a solution ASAP. However, it will only work across a small area, after which there’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’ll want to keep the water away from your car.

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.

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.

Snowblowers come in three different sizes: first-, second-, and third-stage blowers. Each additional stage is larger with higher intakes, more powerful, and has more gear options.

A first-stage blower, also called a snow thrower, is usually best for snow 6 to 8 inches or below. Electric snow blowers are usually only available in this size. If you regularly get snow that’s well above six inches, consider a second-stage snow blower. If snowstorms dump 2 to 3 feet of snow repeatedly during winter, you need a third-stage snow blower to tackle it.

In most cases, it’s worth it to pay for professional snow removal. You can shovel the snow yourself, but it’s very labor-intensive and puts you at risk of injury or illness by performing exhausting manual labor in slippery conditions. Paying a professional removes that risk and saves you time and energy. Depending on your agreement, you could wake up to a cleared driveway and a car that’s ready to drive rather than have to get up early to do the work yourself.
