Ice dams, which develop when melting snow trickles down and then refreezes at the margins of roofs instead of running freely down the top, are a common wintertime concern for inhabitants of Fairfax, VA. Ice dams may put extra strain on the whole roof structure and result in significant damage to the rest of your house. A Fairfax roof repair expert<\/a> named Timothy’s Roofing illustrates how ice dams may harm a house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leaks and the Growth of Mold<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In addition to shingle damage, ice dams may make your entire roof more prone to leaks. It’s possible for water to enter the attic from the roof. All the people living in your house may get respiratory problems as a result of the wet environment which creates mold and mildew to grow. Before there are substantial seasonal changes, get your roof inspected, and make sure your attic is properly insulated to prevent ice dams from forming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Damage to the Shingles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"Ice<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Ice dams may harm roof shingles throughout the winter if they are allowed to accumulate and then melt. Snow that is melting, but has nowhere to go may start to seep beneath the shingles, freeze, and cause damage when the temperature drops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Icicles<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

These vertical ice sculptures are stunning on a bright winter day, but if they aren’t managed, they may cause the gutters to separate from the roof fascia. Additionally, falling icicles have the potential to break windows, harm siding, and hurt humans or pets who go beneath them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
