Your Checklist for When Snow Season Arrives

Snow season can be a very magical and beautiful time of the year. Everywhere around us, we are surrounded with a winter wonderland filled with white and silver sparkle. But despite the wondrous-like beauty of snow and winter, safety risks still happen. If you’re not careful, the ice and snow can cause slips, falls, and other accidents. 

As a responsible homeowner and individual, we at Grayline Services LLC, your trusted snow removal services in Silver Spring, Maryland, would like to remind you of the following steps to take before snow falls to the ground.

• Do you have your tools?
  Check again if you still have snow shovels and attachments, a snow pusher, shop broom, roof rake, snow blower, and a lot of salt.
• Is your home properly insulated?
  See to it that your pipes are thoroughly insulated to avoid water from freezing. You don’t want to go through winter without water.
• Have you marked areas that should not be plowed?
  An example of this is sticking a pole with a flag on the protected area.
• Is your vehicle winter-ready?
  Check your radiator, gas tank, tires, and emergency kit. See to it that they are prepped for winter traveling.
• Have a CO detector at home
  The CDC suggests installing a CO detector to alert you of the presence of the deadly, odorless, colorless gas. Check or change the battery when you change your clocks in the fall and spring.

The winter can be a fun time for all of us, but learning how to keep safe makes the experience even better. Should you require help with winter preparation, our snow services in Maryland is ready to lend a hand (or shovel). For reliable snow cleaners, call us at 240-831-2180.
