What Causes Ice Dams — and Why Cleveland Homes Are at Risk

Ice dams form when heat escaping from your living space warms the roof deck, melting snow on the upper portion of the roof. That meltwater runs down to the cold eave area and refreezes — creating a dam of ice that forces water back up under the shingles.

With Cleveland's freeze-thaw cycles and heavy snowfall, ice dams are a serious and recurring problem for many Northeast Ohio homeowners — especially in older homes with inadequate attic insulation or ventilation.

  • Icicles forming along your eave are an early warning sign
  • Water stains on interior ceilings indicate water has backed up
  • The fix is addressing attic ventilation and insulation — not just the ice
  • Ice dam damage is often covered by homeowner's insurance

Damage Repair

We repair shingles, underlayment, and roof deck damage caused by ice dam water infiltration — stopping further damage and restoring your roof's integrity.

💨
Ventilation Assessment

We assess your attic ventilation and identify the underlying cause of ice dams — poor air flow, inadequate insulation, or both — so we can recommend a permanent solution.

🛡
Leak Barrier Installation

When replacing a roof in an ice-dam-prone home, we install self-adhering leak barrier at all eaves — as required by Ohio building code and GAF warranty requirements.

Common Questions

Can I just knock the icicles off to prevent ice dams?+
Knocking icicles off helps reduce weight but doesn't address the underlying ice dam or prevent water from backing up under your shingles. The real fix is addressing the heat loss causing the dam to form. Call us for an assessment.
Will my insurance cover ice dam damage?+
Ice dam water damage to your home's interior is typically covered by homeowner's insurance. The damage to the roof itself may be covered depending on your policy. We inspect and document everything needed to support your claim.
