This is a common issue here. Snow and ice can build up in valleys and at the eaves, creating an 'ice dam.' When it melts, water backs up under the shingles and soaks the roof deck and underlayment. It often reveals pre-existing wear or minor damage. We inspect for compromised underlayment, damaged flashing, and proper ventilation—key factors in preventing this seasonal problem.

Inside, look for water stains on ceilings or walls, especially in the attic. Outside, check for curling or buckling shingles, which can indicate moisture trapped underneath. In Antigo's climate, underlayment is your home's critical second layer of defense. If you see granules from shingles in your gutters or notice any leaks, it's time for a professional inspection to assess the underlayment's condition.

Absolutely. Properly installed, energy-efficient windows reduce indoor humidity that can contribute to attic condensation and ice dams. Well-functioning gutters and downspouts are crucial for directing meltwater away from your roof and foundation. As part of our exterior services, we ensure your entire system—roof, windows, and gutters—works together to protect your Antigo home from top to bottom.
