Tips For Keeping Excess Snow Off Your Roof

Advice For Roof Snow Removal

We like to wake up in a winter morning and discover that, during the night, snow has covered vegetation, streets, cars and the roofs. It is a wonderful sight, isn`t it? However, from a practical point of view, snow can be a nuisance. If your car and car park are not that difficult to clean, removing the snow from the roof is a bit more challenging.

The best solution is to call a specialized company to do this job with professional equipment, but that means paying for the provided services.

Another option is to do it yourself, by using a ladder and a long broom or a shovel made of plastic, to avoid damaging the roof tiles. You have to push the snow to the side and also try to reach the high area of ​​the roof, which is quite difficult. Besides, you have to take care to secure the ladder and to avoid snow that may fall on you.

Another option is installing a de-icing system. It is made of electric cables that heat and melt the snow. This way, it prevents snow from building up on roof and water from freezing.

The price of such a system is difficult to determine without a Dexter MI roofing specialist able to estimate the costs according to the shape of the roof, the size of the gutters, the thickness of the cables or the chosen thermostat.

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!
