Winter Storms Damage the Roofs of Mendon, MI Residents
1/29/2019 (Permalink)
This time of year is known for the bad weather and awful road conditions. It’s common to hear us Michiganders complaining about our commutes. What we often overlook is the effect these winter storms have on our homes. The snow and ice is more than just an inconvenience, they can significantly damage your home.
The weight of snow and ice alone has the potential to collapse your roof. As if that isn’t troublesome enough, ice dams are another threat to homes. Ice dams are an accumulation of ice often found on roofs. These dams form when snow melts unevenly, and then refreezes at the edge of the roof. Water gets trapped beneath the shingles and leaks into the home. This can cause significant damage to ceilings, walls, and other areas of the home.
