Effective ice dam repair starts with a professional assessment. We first address any interior water damage and then carefully remove damaged roof decking and shingles. The key is not just patching the hole, but improving the underlying ventilation and insulation—the root causes of ice dams in our climate—to prevent a recurrence. We match new materials to your existing roof for a seamless, weather-tight repair.

Granule loss is a common sign of aging shingles, accelerated by our freeze-thaw cycles and sun exposure. While some loss is normal, excessive bald spots expose the asphalt to UV rays, making shingles brittle and prone to cracking or leaking. We recommend a professional inspection to evaluate the extent. Often, it indicates the roof is nearing the end of its service life, and proactive replacement protects your home from more costly water damage.

Absolutely. While no roof is 100% immune, a properly installed roof system is your best defense. We focus on creating a complete thermal envelope: installing ice and water shield along the eaves, ensuring adequate attic insulation and ventilation, and using quality synthetic underlayment. This approach minimizes the heat loss that melts snow and forms dams, giving you a durable, high-performance roof designed for our local weather challenges.
