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: Is ice dam removal covered by insurance?

• <div><p>You should check with your insurance provider, but generally, ice dam removal is not covered by insurance, as it&rsquo;s considered a preventable issue. However, damage from ice dams may be covered by your policy, including roof collapses. In the case of leaks, your belongings may or may not be covered. If you can&rsquo;t find specific information on ice dam removal in your policy, give the insurance company a call and find out.</p></div>

Q: How much weight can a roof take from snow?

• <div><p>Most roofs can take quite a bit of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-how-much-snow-can-your-roof-hold.htm">weight from snow</a>, but their ability to handle heavy snow is not unlimited. Most roofs can handle about 20 pounds per cubic foot of fresh snow. Ice, ice dams, and other factors can contribute to dangerous roof weight. Newer roofs, sloped roofs, and those that have more support can hold more snow than older roofs, flat roofs, and roofs with widely spaced beams. To figure out how much snow your roof can hold, you will need to contact a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/roofing/">professional roofing contractor</a> to calculate the maximum snow load for your specific roof.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a snow blower on a deck or patio?

• <div><p>Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.</p><p>You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn&rsquo;t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you leave snow on your roof?

• <div><p>You may be wondering if you really need the snow removed from your roof. Since most roofs can only handle 20 pounds per square foot of snow accumulation, there is a tipping point when you are suddenly at risk of roof collapse. This can cause a lot of damage, not just to your home, but to your belongings, too. It also poses a physical danger to your family. Also, a lot of snow on a roof makes it more susceptible to ice dams, leaks, and water damage.</p></div>

This company took down eight large trees very close to my home without damaging a thing. Everything was removed per my request. It is so rare to find a company that does the job on time, at budget and cares about the quality of their work.

The men from Claremont Glassworks did an excellent job when I had my garage doors replaced. They were on time, professional, and polite. They had both doors removed, and new ones replaced, plus two new garage door openers installed, in only a couple of hours. Great doing business with them

I think he also does property management but we use him for snow removal. He charges by the inch of snow. If we get 5 inches and he has to come out 3 times, he only charges that one time. A lot of places charge every time they come out and if it snows all day, they have to come 3 or 4 times. He...
