Calgarians are creative people when it comes to snow removal. In our three generations of snow removal services in southeast Calgary, we have seen snow and ice attacked in just about every way possible. A lot of them, we wouldn’t recommend. But the snow removal business requires a sense of humour – especially in this…
A snowfall warning on Oct. 23 came with a caution to expect accumulations of up to 20 centimetres, and by 8 p.m., 7 centimetres had already fallen. Thankfully, there wasn’t too much more, with heights reaching less than 10 centimetres in most areas, but there was still enough that it was a big job to…
Unfortunately, the weather forecast is unseasonably cold for the next couple weeks, but not so cold that we can’t celebrate Halloween. In addition to the cooler weather, the COVID-19 pandemic has thrown another bit of a monkey wrench into the regular festivities, but with a little bit of planning and creativity, there are many ways…
It has been such a nice fall in Calgary that we’re all grateful for the mild weather. But even though we’re still golfing, walking, cycling, barbecuing, playing soccer, and doing whatever it takes to spend time outdoors, it’s now time for us to start slowly winding down our fall landscaping duties and ensure our commercial…
Temperatures are set to be seasonal for the rest of September, which means we are looking at an average of around 17-degrees Celsius for the next couple of weeks. These comfortable temperatures mean we will still be able to enjoy time outdoors on our patios and in our yards, which is great. But, sadly, we’re…

For the few (but often magnificent) summer days we have in Alberta, we know that nobody wants to be stuck doing yardwork when they could be doing something so much more fun – especially at the cabin. There are so many other reasons to be at the cabin than yard upkeep. Quite often, location and…
If you are often ending up with huge puddles in your yard, you should be concerned – especially if they are near your foundation. The constant moisture will almost certainly cause non-structural damage, which may end up being structural damage if not tended to. Structural damage interferes with the overall stability of your home, causing…
Hiring a contractor to help with your home at any time is nerve-wracking. You are putting your trust (and your hard-earned dollars) in the skill and expertise of others, and are reliant on their honesty, integrity, and ability to deliver on their promises. When you don’t feel as if you are being listened to, the…
