Ice Dam removal service
Ice dams are ridges of ice that form along the edges of your roof, usually after heavy snowfall followed by fluctuating temperatures. When heat from inside your home escapes into the attic, it warms the roof and melts the snow. The melted snow runs down the roof and refreezes at the colder eaves, creating a dam of ice. Over time, this dam can grow larger, trapping more melted water behind it.
The real danger of ice dams lies in the water that gets trapped behind them. As this water pools up, it can seep under the shingles and leak into your home. This leads to water damage in your attic, ceilings, insulation, and even walls. Moisture from the leaks can also create the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow, which can cause health issues and costly repairs if not addressed quickly.
In addition to water damage, the weight of ice dams can also strain your gutters and roof. The heavy ice can bend or tear gutters away from the home and even damage shingles or the roof structure itself. Preventing ice dams by improving attic insulation, ensuring proper ventilation, and safely removing snow from the roof can save homeowners from expensive structural repairs and keep their home protected throughout the winter.
Some of the damages caused by ice dams include:
- Structural damage caused by the weight of the ice
- Roof leaks from the pooling water
- Interior water damage as the pooled water finds cracks and spaces to leak inside
- Mold growth from the water damage
