What 24/7 Express Handyman Service does on site
- Walks, steps and landings scraped toward bare pavement before any deicer goes down
- Deicer matched to the surface and nearby plantings, spread sparingly, with sand or grit on steps for traction
- Downspout extensions turned away from walks and loose handrails tightened so meltwater and footing stop being a hazard
How it works
- Look at the concrete, pavers or wood and the plantings next to them before choosing a product
- Break and scrape ice, then treat only what stays bonded, starting with steps and landings
- Point meltwater away from walks where a downspout extension or splash block can do it, and check handrails
- Referred out: heat cable, heated mats or snow-melt systems go to a licensed electrician, and heaved or spalled concrete goes to a concrete contractor
What happens next
- The written scope and price come first; nothing starts until you approve it, and repeat storm visits are agreed in writing ahead of time.
- Photograph the damage before anything is moved and keep every receipt; 24/7 Express Handyman Service provides an itemised invoice your insurer may ask for. The dispatch fee and job cost are paid by you on the day.
