Ice Dam Repair & Prevention Services

Ice dams are a serious winter roofing issue that can cause extensive damage if left untreated. At Willard Roofing, we provide professional Ice Dam repair and prevention services to protect your roof, attic, and interior from costly water damage. Our experienced roofing specialists understand how ice dams form and how to safely eliminate them while preventing future problems.

What Is an Ice Dam?

An ice dam forms when snow on your roof melts and refreezes at the eaves. This often happens due to uneven roof temperatures caused by heat loss from the attic. As ice builds up, it blocks proper drainage, forcing melting snow to back up under shingles and into your home. The result can include roof leaks, damaged insulation, stained ceilings, mold growth, and compromised structural components.

Signs You Have an Ice Dam Problem

Ice dams aren’t always obvious until damage has already started. Common warning signs include:

• Large ridges of ice along roof edges or gutters
• Icicles forming repeatedly in the same areas
• Water stains on ceilings or walls
• Peeling paint or warped drywall
• Leaks appearing during winter thaws

If you notice any of these issues, it’s important to act quickly. Ice dams tend to worsen as winter conditions continue.

Willard Roofing offers safe, effective solutions for ice dam removal and roof repair. Our team uses proven methods designed to protect your roof materials while stopping active leaks.

Our ice dam repair process may include:

Ice Dam Prevention Solutions

Repairing the damage is only part of the solution. Preventing ice dams from forming again is essential for long-term roof performance. Willard Roofing evaluates contributing factors such as insulation, ventilation, and roof design to recommend effective prevention strategies.

Ice dam prevention may include:

• Improving attic insulation to reduce heat loss
• Enhancing roof ventilation for balanced temperatures
• Sealing air leaks that allow warm air into the attic
• Installing ice and water shield protection during roof repairs

These solutions help maintain a consistent roof temperature, reducing the conditions that lead to ice dam formation.
