Can I Fix an Ice Dam

If you know you are having problems with your roof and your gutter but you just don’t know what it is or how to sort it then there is a high chance that you have an ice dam. An ice dam occurs when you have freezing conditions and inevitably, have snow on your roof. Your home releases heat and sometimes this heat escapes through the roof and through the tiles. This causes some of the layers of snow on your roof to melt and when this happens, it drips down the roof.

An ice dam occurs when the drips of water reach the edge of your roof, where the heat from the home prevents it from staying in its water form. As a result, the drops of water harden and freeze, causing icicles at the end of your roof and all along your gutter. You may even see patches of water inside your home if your roof has various leaks as it is.

You may feel as though your best option to fix an ice dam in this instance would be to break the icicles yourself. This can be dangerous and this won’t even stop the problem from happening again. For this reason, you should always hire a professional to take care of the job for you because if you don’t then you run the risk of causing more damage and you may also put your own health at risk as well.
