Libby's Outdoor Maintenance

About Libby's Outdoor Maintenance

By two in the afternoon a February sun in Andover is already sliding, throwing long blue shadows off garages and setting up the evening refreeze. Libby's Outdoor Maintenance treats that slant of light as a deadline. Snow gets cleared while it is still soft — driveways plowed full-width, steps and walks shoveled down to the surface, entries finished by hand where a blade can't reach — so nothing is left to set into ice overnight. It is patient, thorough winter work for a suburb that gets its share of storms off the open sand country. When the door opens the next morning, the path out is simply there, dry and certain, the way it should be.
