If you haven't heard of the term "ice damming" before, you've probably at least experienced it because it's a common issue many homeowners face during the winter months. Basically, ice damming occurs when heat is lost from the house, causing snow on the roof to melt and then refreeze at the gutter line, which is unheated. Ice damming is typically a concern once the water starts to infiltrate the interior of a house.   While this can be a huge concern for homeowners, it's important to remember that ice damming, while inconvenient, is not a life-threatening emergency. It is fixable.   During this episode, we are sharing both short-term and long-term solutions, including roof raking, using calcium, and using EdgeMelt which is a heat cable system.   And if you're looking to prevent ice damming, feel free to give us a call.
