Ice Dams Become a Growing Problem for Homeowners

According to KBJR, this year is one of the busiest in terms of ice dam problems in the past 6 years. The ice dam problems have been rising more, especially with the above average amount of snowfall received in the northern states this winter. The professionals who handle ice damming have been busier than ever before working with homeowners to fix these residential problems.

KBJR says the best way to prevent this problem is to pay attention to this household problem. In the winter, try to move the snow away quickly post-snowfall to prevent snow from building up and staying on the roof. The KBJR article recommends a roof rake from the hardware store to remove snow. This is one of the best precautions to take but at times, ice dams can also be inevitable. DBS can help with ice dam work if it’s already formed and maintenance is required. By leaving ice dams to grow, more household problems can arise. It’s important to get a removal service as the winter continues.
