Winter brings its share of challenges, and icy driveways are a big concern. Traditional ice-melting products, like rock salt or ice melt, can cause long-term damage to concrete and cause cracking and scaling. If you’re looking for effective and safe ways to keep your driveway clear, consider these alternatives.

Your spring maintenance checklist doesn’t have to feel daunting. Use this easy guide to protect your property and avoid larger issues down the road.
