Ice dams form when snow melts on a roof surface and refreezes at the eaves due to cold temperatures. As temperatures fluctuate, ice dams can lead to serious water damage inside homes. To prevent this, ensure proper insulation and ventilation in your attic. Additionally, clearing snow from your roof can prevent buildup. When ice dams do occur, using a roof rake to remove the snow can help, as well as applying heat cables along the roof edge. Regular maintenance and inspections after heavy snowfall can help identify potential issues before they escalate. If damage does occur, consult a professional for repairs to avoid further complications.
