Here at All Clean Restoration, we know all too well the havoc that Midwest snow and ice storms can wreak on your property. From roof collapse to burst pipes and foundation issues, the weight and melting of snow and ice can lead to a variety of problems.

The Dangers of Snow Accumulation

  • Roof Collapse: Just one foot of snow can weigh thousands of pounds, putting immense stress on your roof. This can lead to collapse, causing not only structural damage but also water damage as the snow melts.
  • Ice Dams: Ice dams form when melted snow refreezes at the edge of your roof. This can trap water behind the dam, which can then leak under your shingles and into your home.
  • Water Leaks: As snow melts, it can seep into cracks and crevices around your windows, doors, and other roof components, leading to leaks.
  • Damage to Property: Heavy snow sliding off your roof can damage awnings, gutters, landscaping, and even cars.

The Dangers of Freezing Temperatures

  • Frozen Pipes: When temperatures dip below freezing, your pipes can freeze and burst. This can cause significant water damage to your home.
  • Ground Saturation: Melting snow can saturate the ground around your foundation, leading to basement flooding and mold growth.

Protecting Your Property from Snow and Ice

  • Regular Roof Inspections: Have your roof inspected annually for signs of damage that could make it more susceptible to snow and ice.
  • Professional Snow Removal: Consider hiring a professional snow removal service to remove snow from your roof before it becomes too heavy.
  • Proper Insulation: Ensure your attic is properly insulated to help prevent ice dams from forming.
  • Pipe Maintenance: Insulate exposed pipes and leave a trickle of water running during cold snaps to prevent freezing.
