How to Keep Too Much Snow Off Your Roof and Prevent Ice Dams

Contents

Roofing Tile Systems MI Roof

One of the major problems that can plague your roof is snow. Whether you have a flat roof or one of the most luxurious tile roofing Livonia MI systems in your neighborhood, it’s very important to make sure that ice dams and large buildups of snow won’t form. The alternative will be that the roof might become extremely heavy, and the damage that the extra weight can cause both to your roof and to your home can be quite substantial.

 

While regular brooms and brushes can be inefficient, or they can cause more harm than good, the use of a special roofing broom should be considered above all else. A roofing broom is similar to a regular broom, but it is somewhat larger and features a unique design, being built especially for removing debris and snow from roofs.

 

Because of its construction, you can simply walk underneath your roof and use the broom on the area of your roof right in front of you to remove the snow almost effortlessly. Before using it, however, make sure that no one is in the immediate vicinity of your home and that you don’t stand too close under the area you’re clearing. The snow can be pretty heavy, and you won’t want it to injure anyone.

Professional, Knowledgeable, and stress free is how I would describe my experience with Roof One. From first call, a representative actually answers the phone with a friendly welcome. Jason was prompt and quick to come out and give a detailed consultation. Antonio’s crew was amazing! Not only were they on time, but a few minutes early. They made sure to walk me through the process and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Scott helped work with my insurance adjuster and went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied. Bill and Sandra in the office treated me like family and Steve, the owner, was very kind and welcomed me to the Roof One family. Phenomenal Job Roof One, my family and I couldn’t be happier - Thank you!

From the beginning to the end, Roof one really impressed me regarding their professionalism when roofing my house. In particular Steve and Mark managed this job wonderfully. The crew they sent over did such a wonderful quality job and made sure my property was free of nails and debris. I would definitely hire this company for a roof job. Very straight forward with their prices and options. I was also grateful they hooked up vent fans and provided a gorgeous flashing for my large chimney. Good job guys! Wish there were more contractors like you!
