★★★★★ 5.0 on Google (48 reviews) · GAF Certified™ · Fully insured ($2M liability) · Photo documentation on every job

Ice dams can force water under shingles and into edges, valleys, and wall transitions. The goal is to stop the leak and reduce the chance it repeats.

Common signs

  • Interior staining near exterior walls
  • Drips during melt cycles
  • Heavy ice buildup at the roof edge
  • Gutters and edges freezing solid

Prevention (the long-term fix)

Ventilation, insulation, and air sealing are often part of the long-term fix, and roof-edge details matter too. Any recommendations are confirmed after we review photos or inspect the roof.

FAQs

Is ice dam removal the same as fixing the leak?

Not always. Removing the ice relieves the backup, but sometimes the flashing or edge details also need repair.

Should I clear snow to prevent ice dams?

Reducing snow on the lower roof can help. See roof snow removal. If water is actively coming in, start with emergency roof repair.
