Let Us Handle The Headache For You
While you may see ice hanging off your home’s gutters and think it is beautiful when the sun hits it, it is just an accident waiting to happen. Ice dams are not something to mess around with.
An ice dam is caused by snow and ice melting on the roof, usually due to poor attic ventilation, which makes the roof warmer. Then, when the water gets to the gutters or eaves, it refreezes due to the drop in temperature. It is often seen around the gutters and edges of your roof.
And while it may be pretty, the weight it is putting your roof under is astronomical. Ice can weigh over 900 kg per cubic meter.
This is a massive amount of weight to put onto your roof. If this weight lets go and the ice dam starts to fall, numerous things can happen. For example, we have seen the following:
- Gutters fall with the ice ripping into vinyl siding
- Ice falls onto cars, breaking the windshield and causing dents
- The ice dam falls onto a portion of a tree and brings tree limbs down onto roofs
With all the issues that could happen, homeowners must consider ice dam removal. And they need to ensure they are using professionals who understand their roof and ice.
