We just had our first snowfall, and you know there is more winter weather on its way. Winter has arrived, there is no denying it anymore. If you are needing snow and ice removal for your business or your home, make sure to contact us to get on our list!
For many people, Alaska and snow go hand in hand. Did you know the average snowfall here each winter is over 75 inches!
Snow and ice can create slippery pathways and increase our risk of falling. Winter weather can lead to accidents such as slip and fall, auto accidents, and other snow-related accidents.
Slips, trips, and falls happen year-round, of course, but winter ice and snow create a more hazardous environment that increases the risk of personal, customer, or employee-related injuries. When it comes to adverse winter weather conditions, it is better to be proactive as opposed to reactive.
As a business owner, it is vital for an active effort to be made to prevent the build-up of ice on walkways and sidewalks. It is also important to assure your sidewalks, stairs, and parking lots are clear from ice and snow. Places like parking areas and outside break areas utilized by employees or customers in need of a place outside to smoke are commonly overlooked but frequently used.
Similarly, as a homeowner, your driveway area should be kept safe as well. Many winter slips and fall accidents occur when someone is trying to get from their car to your doorstep.
Ice and snow build-up are not only a slip and fall hazard; they are a driving hazard as well. These conditions can cause vehicles to slip when driving on an icy driveway, resulting in car accidents. The heavy snowfall during an Alaskan winter storm may cause our cars to get covered under heaps of snow or snow to fall off our roof and buildup on sidewalks and driveways. Without the proper equipment, snow and ice can be hard to remove, putting the safety of your family, guests, customers, or employees at risk.
Why shovel yourself? When you consider hiring the services of a professional snow removal company, it is vital to do your research and ask a few fundamental questions. This way, when the next storm comes, you are not surprised by what they do and do not provide for services. Here are a few helpful tips to help you find the right company.

An outdoor patio is a convenient way to create an outdoor lounge. Patios can only be built on flat terrain and provide a space where you can enjoy the comforts of inside while being outside.
Decks and porches can also be used as outdoor lounge areas. Patios can be built with cement, stone, tiles, or pavers.
Arrange furniture, décor, lighting, and other elements to create the ideal setting for a view, cookout, and other activities.
Where you will install your outdoor patio is an important consideration. If you intend to cook on the grill or use the space for dinner, keep it close to home in case you forget the plates or any utensils while cooking and eating. Sliding doors can be installed as the entrance to your home for a smooth transition from inside to outside. Build your patio away from the house to create the ideal get-away spot.
When decorating your patio, make sure to use weather-resistant materials such as plastic, stainless steel, or treated wood. Keep storage for pillows, lounge items, and other items nearby, such as benches with storage or small plastic sheds, to keep them in when the weather turns bad.
Make an outdoor lounge for you and your family to enjoy in your backyard. An outdoor patio can be built almost anywhere and decorated with pergola structures, drapes, lights, furniture, plants, and other accessories. Make it your own and see what you can come up with.

Your foundation is without a doubt one of the most important parts of your home. It is crucial to the structural integrity of your home, and it is what prevents it from sinking or becoming damaged.

While the cost of foundation repairs can be high at times, it is better to invest in quality repairs, rather than trying to fix it yourself. If you make the foundation worse or do things incorrectly, not only can it further damage your home, but can drastically increase the costs you will be responsible for paying. It can turn something that may have only cost a few thousand dollars into something that can easily surpass tens of thousands of dollars to fix.
