ICE DAMS
An ice dam is a ridge of ice that forms at the edge of a roof and prevents melting snow (water) from draining off the roof. The water that backs up behind the dam can leak into a home and cause damage to walls, ceilings, insulation, and other areas.
Get on top of roof problems. Few homeowner problems are more vexing than a leaky roof. Once the dripping starts, finding the source of the problem can be time-consuming. Stop problems this fall before ice and winter winds turn them from annoyances into disasters.
How to Prevent: You want to make sure that your roof clear of snow and ice. (As much as possible) A great and fast way to do this is to put ice melt on the areas around the gutter. This will insure ice buildup will not happen!
