Ice dam removal before water gets inside
An ice dam is a ridge of ice that builds up at the edge of a roof. Meltwater backs up behind it and can find its way into the house. The goal of this service is to keep that water out of your ceilings and walls.
We remove ice dams and icicles at the roof edge with low-pressure steam. This is a winter service, and we do not clear all the snow from your roof. We focus on the ice that is causing the problem.

How we remove ice dams
-
Call for a phone quote
Tell us about the ice on your roof edge, or text photos. We quote by phone and schedule you the same week in winter.
-
Protect the home
We set up with care around your home, using moving blankets under ladders and wool bonnets on ladder tops.
-
Steam the ice away
We use low-pressure steam on the ice dams and icicles at the roof edge, so the ice can drain instead of trapping water.
Steam instead of chipping at the ice
We use low-pressure steam on ice dams rather than chipping at them. Steam melts the ice at the roof edge and lets the water drain away. It is the method we use to remove ice, and it keeps the focus on the point of the job, which is stopping water from getting inside your house.
