Another cold front is right around the corner! Be sure to follow Rockstar Roofing and General Contracting for do’s and don’ts for the upcoming weather! 🥶❄️
Snow days make everything look picture-perfect… ❄️ but as soon as temperatures bounce around, that snow begins to melt. The warm air from inside your home melts the snow on the upper portion of your roof first, and the water flows downward until it hits the colder gutter line—where it freezes again. That frozen ridge is called an ice dam, and it can block proper drainage. When water has nowhere to go, it can seep under the shingles, saturate the decking, and eventually show up as ceiling spots, wet insulation, or even interior leaks.
If you notice anything, don't climb on the roof—give us a call. We'll take a safe look for you.
