Roof snow removal in Bala
Older cottages, add-ons and boathouses along the Moon River and Bala Bay.
Bala and the Moon River area have many older cottages that were added onto over the years. Flat or low-slope additions, sunrooms and covered porches are common, and those are the spots that hold the most snow. Many owners here live outside Muskoka and only visit in summer.

Owners who live away
If you live in the city, you can't easily check your Bala cottage after a storm. Crews can go by after big snowfalls, clear what's needed and send photos. Give them a key or lockbox code only if they need inside access, such as to check the ceiling for leaks.

Bala questions
I only use my Bala cottage in summer. Do I really need the roof cleared?
It depends on the roof and the winter. Older cottages with flat additions or porches are the most common concern. A crew can look and tell you.
Can a crew send me photos?
Many crews will send before and after photos. Ask when they call you.
