The best prevention combines proper attic insulation, adequate ventilation, and the installation of an ice and water shield membrane along the roof's eaves and valleys. We perform a detailed assessment to identify heat loss points in your attic and recommend solutions to maintain a consistent roof temperature, which is key to preventing the freeze-thaw cycle that causes ice dams.

Look for missing, creased, or lifted shingles, especially along roof edges and ridges. You might also find granules from shingles in your gutters or on the ground. Inside your home, check for water stains on ceilings or walls. We offer free, post-storm inspections to assess any wind damage and provide a clear, honest repair plan to secure your roof.

Not always. For localized damage from a single ice dam or a fallen branch, a targeted repair is often sufficient. However, for widespread wind damage, multiple leaks, or an aging roof, a replacement may be the most cost-effective, long-term solution. We'll explain all your options, focusing on what provides the best protection and value for your Lewiston home.
