Ice Dam FAQ
Why do ice dams form on roofs?
Ice dams form when warm air from inside your home leaks through the roof into the attic, melting snow. The water runs down and refreezes at the roof edge where it's coldest, creating a dam. This traps water behind it, which seeps under shingles and into your home. Poor attic insulation and ventilation are common causes. Mastaba Roofing safely removes dams and recommends permanent prevention solutions.
Is it safe to remove ice dams myself?
No. DIY ice dam removal is extremely dangerous, falling ice, slipping on roofs, and ladder accidents are common. Improper removal also damages shingles and flashing. Mastaba Roofing uses professional equipment and techniques to safely remove ice dams without harming your roof, siding, or landscaping.
How can I prevent ice dams permanently?
Permanent solutions include improving attic insulation to R-38 or higher, adding proper ventilation to keep the roof cold, and sealing air leaks. Heat cables can provide temporary relief during heavy snow. Mastaba Roofing inspects your attic, diagnoses the root cause, and recommends cost-effective prevention strategies.
