I can’t believe all of the damage that I have seen recently from Ice Dams. These form at the eave of the building usually where the gutter is. They can cause water to back up into the building, causing thousands of dollars of damage.
There is some good news though. The fix does not have to be that costly, if you catch it early. Here is a link to a video of a quick and easy way to break up the darn dams that ran on WGAL.
I hope this helps you! Call your insurance carrier to be certain you are covered for this as we are hearing some insurance companies are not covering if icicles and snow are not cleared off your roof.
