Ice dams can cause significant water damage under your shingles. Our process involves a thorough inspection to assess water infiltration, repairing or replacing damaged decking and shingles, and addressing the root cause. We often improve attic insulation and ventilation to prevent warm air from melting snow unevenly, which is a key factor in ice dam formation common in our Philly winters.

Moss thrives in shaded, damp areas common in many Philadelphia neighborhoods. We recommend professional roof cleaning to safely remove moss without damaging your shingles. Following cleaning, we can apply a zinc or copper treatment at the roof's ridge to inhibit future moss and algae growth. In cases of severe moss damage, roof repair or targeted replacement may be necessary to restore protection.

Absolutely. Properly sized and installed gutters are crucial for Philadelphia homes. They channel melting snow and rainwater away from your roof and foundation. We ensure correct sizing, pitch, and secure installation. Adding heated gutter cables can also be a solution to prevent ice buildup in downspouts, reducing the risk of ice dams forming at your roof's edge.
