Homeowners: Protect Your Investment – Roof Snow Removal

Because it is usually your most valuable investment, I am hoping that you want to take care of your home. At this time of year, I like to send out a reminder about all the beautiful snow that may be stacked up on your rooftop. To remove this excess weight from the roof, and to prolong the life of their roof shingles, many people will use a roof rake to remove as much snow as possible. Aluminum rakes seem to be the best choice for do-it-yourself homeowners because they are lightweight and quite sturdy. For many people, I would recommend hiring a professional maintenance person to do this job for you, especially if you have a two or three-story home. Also, this applies to seasonal or vacation properties Call me if you need the name of someone in our area to help you. 207-784-2525
