Ice and Snow Damage Roof Repair, explained.
When snow melts on a warm roof and refreezes at the cold eave, an ice dam forms and water backs up under the shingles. Heavy snow adds load, and freeze-thaw cycles crack sealants and loosen flashing.
We repair the shingles, flashing and gutters that were damaged, check for water that got in and look at attic insulation and ventilation, since those often cause ice dams.
Signs you need this
- Ice has formed along the eaves or gutters
