Ice Dams Can Cause Damage To Your Dayton Home

11/14/2018 (Permalink)

Ice damming is a situation that traps melting snow onto your roof, both increasing the size of the dam and giving water no runoff points.

Ice Damming Can Allow Flooding in Your Dayton Home

With winter coming quickly for the Dayton area, many homeowners look towards the season to bring heavy snowfall that sits atop their roof. While often this snow merely melts away without incident, certain circumstances can allow for substantial damage to your house if it does not get dealt with immediately. Ice damming is a situation that traps melting snow onto your roof, both increasing the size of the dam and giving water no runoff points.

When ice damming affects your Dayton home, the resulting trapped water looks for an outlet to penetrate into your house, often causing flood damages. Since the flooding occurs in the attic space of your house, many homeowners do not even know there is a concern until that water spreads through the floors below. Our SERVPRO professionals can respond quickly in the face of an emergency like this to help you mitigate your losses and get the restoration process started as promptly as possible.

From the moment that our dedicated professionals arrive at your address, we get to work on assessing the damage that the property has sustained. This inspection can help us to determine at-risk items and locations throughout the property requiring specific attention or action to preserve in the early mitigation steps.
