In our Shippensburg climate, melting snow can expose pre-existing issues like damaged flashing or worn shingles that allowed ice dams to form.

Our focus is on creating a watertight seal and improving attic ventilation to prevent future ice dams, protecting your home from the freeze-thaw cycles common in our area.

Yes, it's a serious issue common in our region. Moisture in insulation is often caused by poor attic ventilation, which traps warm, humid air inside during colder months. This leads to condensation, reducing insulation effectiveness and promoting mold or rot. We solve this by evaluating and improving your roof's ventilation system, ensuring proper airflow to keep your attic dry and your insulation performing as it should, which is crucial for energy efficiency and home health.

We prepare roofs specifically for our local weather by focusing on preventative measures. This includes checking and sealing all potential leak points like valleys and around chimneys, ensuring gutters are clear and properly attached to handle snow melt, and verifying attic ventilation is adequate to minimize ice dam formation. A proactive inspection and minor repairs before winter can prevent major issues from snow, ice, and freeze-thaw cycles, saving you significant stress and expense.
