How to Prevent Ice Dams
Prepare yourself for winter’s worst nightmare: ice dams. While prevention is key, having a plan in place is crucial for dealing with these roofing woes.
Ice Dams are formations of ice that can develop along the edges of a roof, typically during winter weather conditions. Ice dams can cause significant damage to buildings if left untreated. The weight of the ice dams and pooled water can stress the roof structure, leading to roof leaks, water infiltration, and interior damage. Additionally, as water melts and refreezes, it can expand and contract, further damaging roofing materials.
