We had a customer pose this question:

“Can I use my HoeJoe to scrape the snow and Ice off my Roof?”

Well, we certainly thought it was a great Question/Idea! However, the HoeJoe was not built with this purpose in mind. We welcomed his curiosity, but told him to go about his experiment at his own risk. We might in fact do a little testing of our own!  We all know that facing Ice dams in the northern states can be quite the dilemma.  Given that it’s a 55″ handle is long enough to touch roof top edges and overhangs with a step stool or ladder, it makes complete sense that it would work well for snow and ice removal! We think it would be an awesome duel purpose tool in this case. Even if we didn’t sell it as an Ice tool of sorts, we now know that the man of the house is certain to spot it in his garage and try to use it in different ways.  Here’s to inventive thinkers and their tools! Thanks for your question Bud!
