Luke Frisch was so great to work with! He advocated for us and came up with multiple options to choose from when we needed our roof and siding fixed to make sure we got exactly what we wanted! He explained everything throughout the process and made it so much easier. The crews were super friendly as well!
Safety is Our Highest Priority
When it comes to removing ice dams safely, there is only one solution: STEAM! Our steamers will melt the ice on your roof without harming your roof system. Other techniques have the potential to cause serious damage. Pressure washers will usually blast the granules off the asphalt mat of the shingles on your roof. Tools like axes, picks, hammers, and chainsaws will only cause more damage to your roof.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to remove the snow on my roof?
We understand that the best way to prevent ice dams is to remove the snow as soon as it lands. However, simply removing the snow once may not do the trick. While snow removal can help slow ice dam growth on your roof, it may not prevent it entirely. Therefore, continued removal maintenance should be done as a preventative measure over the course of the winter.
How do ice dams form?
Ice dams form when part of your roof’s temperature is above 32 degrees, while another section is below 32 degrees. The warmer section of the roof will melt the snow, causing it to move down your roof. However, it then reaches the cooler part of your roof and refreezes. The result? A pesky ice dam. Unfortunately, residents of La Crosse are all too familiar with this byproduct of our snowy and chilly winters.
Can I put salt on my roof?
We recommend that you stay away from salts that will only cause more damage to your roof. Certain salts can be corrosive and can cause damage not only to your shingles but to your gutters and landscaping.
How can I keep ice dams from forming?
Ice Dams primarily form due to improper insulation and ventilation. The best was to reduce the chance of an ice dam forming is to check out our Insulation Page
