Types of Ice Dams & Snow Removal Services

Rooftop Snow Removal

This service involves physically removing snow from the roof using tools like snow rakes, shovels, and brushes. It’s a direct and effective method for clearing heavy snowfall quickly to prevent the formation of ice dams and reduce the load on the roof structure.

Steaming Ice Dam Removal

Utilizing high-temperature steam, this method gently melts ice dams without damaging the roofing material. It’s particularly effective for removing thick layers of ice safely and preventing water from backing up under the roof shingles.

Roof De-icing Systems

This service involves installing heating cables or panels on the roof to prevent ice dam formation. These systems provide continuous heat, which prevents snow and ice from accumulating on the roof edges, thus mitigating the risk of ice dams.

Ground Snow Removal

This service ensures the safe and efficient removal of snow from property grounds, including driveways, walkways, and entry points. It’s essential for maintaining accessibility and safety during winter months.
