Quick answers
Is insulating pipes the same as plumbing work?
No. Fitting insulation sleeves and faucet covers does not touch the plumbing system; any change to the pipes themselves goes to a licensed plumber.
Should snow be raked off every roof?
No. Snow is raked off when it is heavy, drifting or feeding ice dams at the eaves; raking is done from the ground or a ladder, never by walking the roof in winter.
