Ice Dam Removal
by CertaPro Painters® of Westchester, NY and Southern CT
What You Need To Know About Ice Dams
Ice dams form when snow on your roof melts, re-freezes at the edges, and traps water behind it. That trapped water can seep under shingles and into your home, potentially causing leaks, water stains, and even structural damage over time.
Why It’s Dangerous (and How to Prevent It)
Ice dams can lead to several serious issues, including:
- Roof leaks
- Interior water damage
- Peeling Paint
- Siding and soffit damage
- Mold growth
- Costly repairs
To help reduce the risk of ice dams, homeowners can take proactive steps such as:
- Keeping attics properly insulated
- Ensuring good roof ventilation
- Removing excess snow from roofs after storms
This is where our team comes in. After a major winter storm, we safely rake excess snow from your roof to help reduce the risk of ice dams before they have a chance to cause damage. By addressing the problem early, we help protect your home—saving you from unnecessary stress and costly repairs down the line.
If your home has already suffered damage from ice dams, our team is here to help restore it properly. To successfully repair peeling or damaged paint, it’s critical to first address the underlying moisture and insulation issues causing the problem. Once the source is resolved, proper surface preparation is key, followed by the correct primer and paint application.
Stay Ahead of Ice Dams This Winter
Being proactive can make all the difference. Don’t wait for leaks or damage to appear—contact our team to schedule professional ice dam removal and protect your home before problems start.
