Ice Damming
Ice Causes Water Damage:
After the recent Indiana snowstorm, ice damming was found on a home we visited. Have you noticed any water damage, water lines, or water stains in your home or business?
Understanding the Problem:
Ice damming occurs when snow on the roof melts and refreezes at the eaves, forming a barrier that prevents proper drainage. This phenomenon can lead to water seeping under shingles, causing damage to the roof, insulation, and even interior ceilings and walls. Inadequate insulation and ventilation in the attic often cause ice damming, allowing warm air to escape and melt snow on the roof.
Preventive Measures:
Homeowners should be vigilant during winter months, ensuring proper insulation and ventilation to prevent potential water damage to their homes. Additionally, regular maintenance, such as clearing gutters and removing snow buildup, can also help mitigate the risk. Watch the video below for expert advice, as Brandon explains what is happening and what to do.
