Tired of Shovelling? Tips on Hiring Snow Removal Help
As we continue to see snow fall in Calgary, removing mounds of the white stuff with a shovel may be starting to feel more and more like a chore. With the threat of fines for snow-covered sidewalks, Calgarians may want to consider less hands-on options for snow removal. Before you do, your BBB recommends the following tips: Start with www.calgary.bbb.org for BBB Business Reviews on local contractors. Get several estimates. Prices can vary widely and are based on the amount of work, additional requested services and several other factors. The least expensive service is not always the best service. Make sure you know what services you're getting. Find out exactly what's included in the estimate. Also ask about timelines for snow removal, as the City of Calgary allows 24 hours after a snowfall before a warning can be issued. You should receive a written agreement, not verbal. At BBB we receive complaints where people have been billed unexpectedly as a result of an ongoing contract. To avoid this issue, read the agreement to make sure you understand the charges and cancellation policy.
