Snow shoveling & roof snow removal | Kiyota-ku and Kitahiroshima, careful handwork
・All work is doneby hand (no snowblowers or heavy machinery). This lets us work carefully in tight spots, but it's not suited to clearing large parking lots all at once.
・Snow disposal is limitedto moving it within your property. We do not haul snow away by truck or take it to snow dumps.
・On heavy snow days requests pile up, so we visit in order.

About roof snow removal
Roof snow removal can lead to accidents from falling snow or falls if done carelessly. At Neko no Boss, wecheck the roof shape, height and snow conditions in advance by photo and accept the job only if we judge it can be done safely. We may decline steep, high or badly iced roofs. In that case, we will refer you to a specialist.
