What Is an Ice Dam, and Why Are They So Dangerous?
An ice dam is a ridge of ice that forms on the edge of the roof when water doesn’t drain properly. It prevents melting snow from properly draining, which causes water to back up onto the roof. This increases the risk of water damage and roof leaks. Ice dams can cause a wide range of problems, including:
- Structural damage to the roof, walls, insulation, and ceilings
- Mold or mildew growth
- Roof leaks
- Poor energy-efficiency
- Roof collapse or premature roof failure
- Need for costly repairs
Signs You Have an Ice Dam on the Roof
The most obvious sign of an ice dam is seeing the ridge of ice at the edge of the roof. Some other warning signs of an ice dam forming on your roof are:
- Large icicles hanging from the roof or gutter edges
- A visible ridge of ice along the roofline or gutter edge
- Melting snow on higher parts of your roof that doesn’t drain off the roof
- Water stains or leaks in the building interior
- Discolored spots or wet patches on ceilings or walls
- Peeling paint or bubbling plaster on walls
- Ice in your gutters
- Sagging gutters
- Ice on your exterior siding

Dealing with ice dams is a job best left to the professionals. Attempting to remove large ice dams without the proper equipment or knowledge can be dangerous and may cause further damage to your roof. If you suspect ice dams on your roof, call CoMitted365 Roofing & Exteriors or contact us online. We know how to melt an ice dam without causing more harm to your property. Once the ice dam is out of the way, we can assess the condition of your roof and ensure it hasn’t sustained any significant damage.
Ice dams form when heat from the roof’s surface or the building’s interior causes the ice or snow to melt unevenly and pool up at the edge of the roof. The water then refreezes when temperatures drop again, creating a ridge of ice. As more snow melts, it collects behind this ridge and refreezes to form a dam.
You risk roof damage if you attempt DIY ice dam removal. We ensure no damage to your roof’s shingles, roof deck, or other elements, and will also protect your property’s siding and exterior.
Yes. Preventing ice dams involves addressing the root causes. Annual roof inspections can also be a great way to solve problems preemptively. Roofers can ensure your attic is well-insulated to maintain a consistent roof temperature and that there’s adequate ventilation to regulate the temperature. When it does snow, you can also use a roof rake to clear your roof. We do not recommend going up on your roof to remove snow.

They came and checked my roof after a hail storm came through. They got my whole roof on my house and shed covered by my insurance all I had to pay was my deductible. Very fast and efficient.
“Very quick and great at the job.”
Very quick and great at the job. Our roof was completed in one day and Mitch noticed right away that it was an issue for insurance to cover which helped saved us money. We had several other contractors look at the roof and committed 365 was the only company who told us we were missing shingles and that we had a possible claim for homeowners insurance.
