Winter is nothing new to anyone who has lived in or visited Northern Michigan. But when snow melts or rain freezes, many homes are left with a buildup of snow and ice that can cause ice dams.
The Problem:
Ice dams are an accumulation of frozen water in the gutter system or roof edge that prevent natural draining of melting snow.
When warm, interior air from your attic causes the roof to heat up and more water melts, it can sneak under shingles, leaking into your home. And once water is in, it’s in. Water leakage can quickly damage insulation, drywall, and electrical systems. This can easily lead to wood rot, mildew, and mold.
In addition to interior damage, over time the extreme weight of ice and snow can wreak havoc on the structural integrity of an otherwise healthy roof.
What we do:
Protect your roof by removing ice dams before problems arise.
Instead of using high pressure to blast off buildups of ice and snow, we use a high-quality steaming machine. Our equipment and technique has proven to be the safest and most effective way to remove ice dams and stubborn snow.
Our snow and ice removal specialists will examine your home to determine the best way to remove any ice dams or snow buildup.
After setting up our equipment and finding a safe place to work from, a Two Glass Gents technician will use our chemical-free steam machine to safely remove ice and excess snow—leaving your roof looking as good as it does in spring.
