Ice dams pose a significant threat to your roof during winter. They form when snow on the roof melts due to heat escaping from the home or inadequate insulation. As this water runs down the roof and reaches the colder eaves, it refreezes, creating a dam that prevents proper drainage. The trapped water can seep under shingles, causing leaks, water damage to ceilings and walls, and even structural issues. It’s crucial to remove ice dams promptly or prevent their formation with proper insulation, ventilation, and roof maintenance. Aspen Roofing Services offers expert ice dam prevention and removal services to safeguard your home from winter’s harsh elements, ensuring your roof remains intact and your home is protected.
