YOUR Spray Foam Insulation Contractor

Ice Dam Prevention With Spray Foam

Ice dams occur when snow melts on sloped roofs and then refreezes again. They are most often caused by attics and roofs with poor insulation.

If your home does not have proper attic insulation, heat can escape causing the snow and ice on the roof to melt.

Once the melted snow meets back up with the colder part of the roof (overhang) it freezes again creating and ice dam.

Damage Occurs

Backed up water gets under the shingles and into the roof. This can lead to moisture in your insulation and walls. Now your home is at risk for water damage, mold and mildew.

Melted water also causes icicles hanging from gutters and the edge of the roof. This is dangerous for you and your family.

Spray Foam insulation in your roof and attic can prevent not heat loss, but can alleviate problems in the winter that will cause damage to your home and create dangerous situations for you and your family.
