Roofer in Wilmington, MA Explains Ice Dams

It sure has been an odd Winter.  Not many would have expected only 2 significant snow storms up until now. With the Red Sox as champs again and the Bruins, Celts, and Pats all having great seasons, it's simply great to be a New Englander right now.  However, the recent snow storm in January might have dampened your day.

When You Need Your Roof Assessed

This last snow storm started out with the nice, fluffy snow, but ended up with sleet, ice and rain mix.  Then we had fluctuating temperatures above and below freezing.  Then we had a fast melt.  During this time, you may have noticed ice dams forming on your house.  The ice dams pictured above are well formed, but even some formation of icicles may have caused a problem...water leakage.

In panic, you might have called a plumber, wondering if a pipe burst and that's why water droplets, water stains, and / or water leakage is present on your ceiling.  The plumber shows up and says, "Everything is fine," and that "there is no pipe that burst."  Now what?
