Fiedler | Roofing Services in Cando, ND 58324

Properly sized and installed gutters are your first defense. In our climate, gutters that are too small or clogged can't handle meltwater, which then refreezes at the eaves, causing ice dams. This trapped water can seep under shingles and rot your roof decking. We install seamless gutters with the correct capacity and pitch for Cando homes to ensure water flows away quickly, significantly reducing the risk of these common local issues.

If you've had ice dams, a simple re-shingle might not be enough. A proper reroofing job should include a thorough inspection of the roof decking for hidden rot, which is common here. We replace any compromised wood and install an ice and water shield—a self-adhering membrane—along the eaves and valleys. This critical layer provides a watertight seal against future ice dam seepage, a key step we prioritize for Cando homes to ensure a lasting repair.

Clogged gutters are a primary cause of ice dams and the subsequent roof decking rot we see often. When leaves and debris block the flow, water backs up, freezes at the roof edge, and creates a dam. Our routine gutter cleaning service ensures meltwater from snow and winter thaws can drain freely off your roof and away from your foundation. It's one of the most effective and affordable maintenance steps you can take to protect your Cando home from costly structural damage.
