Snow & Ice Damming Alert!

Winter is here - and with it comes one of the most important signals your roof may be failing: ice damming. If you’ve noticed thick ridges of ice forming along your roofline, or you are experiencing leaks inside during freeze–thaw cycles, it could signal that a roof replacement is needed.

Ice dams don’t just happen because of cold weather - they’re often a sign of:

• Aging shingles that can’t shed water properly
• Underlying roof damage or deterioration
• Poor or failing attic ventilation
• Insufficient insulation allowing heat to escape

If not properly managed, ice damming may result in significant expenses by causing interior water damage, mold development, compromised gutters, and potential structural concerns.

We are here to help - Becht’s professionals can evaluate your roof, determine the underlying causes of ice dams, and provide comprehensive recommendations.
