ICE DAM REMOVAL
When winter comes to Minnesota each year, it brings extreme cold and lots of snow that can be harsh on our houses, especially their roofs. One of the biggest hazards to homes during the winter is the formation of ice dams. When snow begins to melt and run off the roof, but then freezes at the edge and in the gutters, ice dams begin to form. After enough ice accumulates, it will block melting snow from draining into the gutters, trapping snow and ice on the roof.
Ice dams can cause several problems for homes in the Twin Cities. As water pools and freezes behind the ice dam, it will gradually wear down the roof beneath, which can result in leaks forming and severe water damage occurring. This water damage may also lead to the growth of mold and mildew. There’s also the risk that huge chunks of ice will eventually break off and fall, possibly causing damage or injury.
If you’ve had a problem with ice dams forming on your roof, get help from an ice dam removal company in the Twin Cities metro to clear the ice and eliminate this winter hazard.
ICE DAM PROBLEM
