Q: Can I handle snow removal myself?

• <div><p>While DIY is possible for small areas, professional services provide fast, efficient removal for large properties or heavy snowfall.</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: Should I remove icicles from my roof?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s a good idea to leave the icicles on your roof and wait for the warmer weather to melt them away naturally. You should only remove icicles if you believe they&rsquo;re heavy enough to cause damage to your home or anyone who enters it.</p></div>

Huisman arrived and went straight to work on cutting my 60+ foot tree down. He were very careful of the neighbors fence, my deck, my house, and my pine tree. Lots of obstacles. Other than the stump, you could not tell that there was a tree there. Great job. A few days later, I had the stump...

The salesman was very knowledgeable and personable. I was a little skeptical on the windows until after installation. These windows are really doing the job. I noticed this morning snow sitting on the middle sash of the windows. This tells me that the heat in the house is not seeping out at all....

The job went very well. The gutters were formed the day before the scheduled installment. They went up without a problem. We have a steel roof and our regular gutters kept gettting torn off by the snow slides. Leafguard came thru the winter with no apparent damage from the snow and ice.
