What Causes Ice Dams?
An ice dam is a ridge of ice that forms at the edge of a roof and prevents melting snow from draining off of the roof. The water that backs up behind the damn can leak into a home and cause damange to walls, ceilings, insulation and other parts of the house.
How ice dams form on your roof:
1. Indoor heating rises through the ceiling into the attic and warms the roof surface.
2. Snow of the heated part of the roof melts and flows down until it reaches that part of the roof that is below 32 degrees. Water freezes into an ice dam.
3. The dam grows as it is fed by melting snow above, but water held by the dam backs up and stays liquid.
4. Eventually, the water finds cracks in the roof covering and flows into the attic, from where it could seem through the ceiling and the interior walls.
We us safe and effective steam to remove your ice dams. Our technicians are all trained by Doug the owner of Doug's Roofing which insures your roof is protected.
