It’s the season for another winter wonderland! And while there’s something blissfully magical about endless miles of pristine white snow, it screams danger too.
So if you’re done building a snowman and having your snowball fight of the year, remember to remove the snow from your sidewalks and driveways ASAP!
We know it’s just one more chore on your long list of to-dos this month, which is why we offer snow removal services. But before you decide to put off the much-dreaded to-do until a little later (when all that pile of snow gets too difficult to shovel), read our list of why you shouldn’t forget this all-important winter task.
Prevent unwanted accidents
First off, steer clear of unnecessary expenses (read: hospital costs) this winter! Snow can be dangerous and can cause bad falls. Not to mention the fact that all that ice can cause your car to skid as you roll out of your driveway.
In fact, you’ve probably seen a whole bunch of videos where people slip because of all the wet snow on their sidewalks. Those videos may look funny, until the same thing happens to you or someone close to you.
So for safety purposes, make sure to take care of all that snow on your driveways and sidewalks, especially if you’re living with kids or elderly individuals. If you can’t possibly plow through all the snow on your driveway or sidewalks, then at least make it a point to salt them. Not only will doing that help keep you safe from unwanted accidents, but you’ll also be keeping your neighbors safe, because they don’t have to worry about slipping on the ice on your walkway.
Make life easier, in general
All that snow outside your home can make for a beautiful postcard, but if you’re rushing off to school or work, it can be a fall hazard and a hassle. Plus, you can’t just wear any shoe you want if you don’t want to slip on the ice.
So, to make life easier for you and your family in general, then it’s about time that you start shovelling and plowing that snow. Doesn’t sound like your favorite weekend chore? No worries. You can always call us over for that, right?
Keep yourself safe from lawsuits
If there’s one thing you definitely don’t want for yourself this holiday it’s having to deal with a legal notice. And no, we’re not making this up. There are neighborhoods that have made it a point to sanction those who fail to plow or salt the snow on their driveways and sidewalks if it causes accidents.
So if you don’t want a lawsuit on your case, it’s time you give us a call at Stoney Acres! That is, if you don’t fancy the thought of spending hours plowing through snow.
At Stoney Acres, we offer snow removal and salting, winter landscape maintenance, and so much more. To book our services or make inquiries, call us at 925-6286. We’d be happy to give you a free estimate as well.
