Ice Dams: What Homeowners Should Know
Ice dams form when melting snow refreezes at the roof’s edge, trapping water that can back up under shingles and cause damage to your roof, gutters, and interior.
They’re often caused by heat loss, poor insulation, or blocked gutters—and a little prevention can go a long way.
