There is nothing more inconvenient than having to deal with snow on your driveway, lane way or dirt road. If you do not take proper care of the snow and ice build up on your driveway you might end up with dangerous, unpleasant, or inconvenient circumstances. If you do not have the time or energy to be constantly shoveling and applying salt and ice melt you need to hire a professional who can take the burden off of you. This will help make the winter months seem more enjoyable.

Contact Francois from Home & Cottage Watch today to get your lane way cleared up and ready to drive on. Francois offers personalized service and will get your driveway or road ready to drive on efficiently and hassle-free. Home & Cottage Watch offers snow plowing, salt and ice melt services for homes, cottages or commercial properties in Westport and surrounding regions.

Put your shovel down and call or text Francois today at 613-483-8278!
