Roof Ice Dam

In a few months, winter will be here, bringing with it heavy snow and ice in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Because our Michigan weather changes so frequently, sometimes bringing warmer temperatures even during the dead of winter, snow can freeze and melt and then freeze up again, causing frequent and dangerous roof ice dams. Inadequate roof ventilation and a warm attic can also exacerbate the issue. A roof ice dam can be hazardous to your residential or commercial property, causing problems such as:

  • Serious damage to your gutters, roof, and insulation.
  • Because of the constant buildup of condensation, mold, mildew, and other bacterial organisms can grow, leading to potential health problems if there are any holes in your roof.
  • Large pieces of falling ice can plummet off of your home or office building, causing damage to objects or people below.
