A Reliable Ice Dam Removal Company

Reliable Ice Dam Removal Company Great Falls, MT

As local Great Falls roofers, A-1 Contractors, Inc understands that our community receives it’s fair share of rain, hail, sleet and snow. According to the National Weather Service, Great Falls receives about 28 inches of snow annually, about the same amount as the national average. While white winters may be beautiful; snow, sleet and ice can cause quite a bit of havoc on your property, especially your roof.

The A-1 Contractors, Inc team has diligently been serving the greater Great Falls area for the last 20 years and in all those years we’ve recognized that ice dams are a common problem for homeowners in the area. This is why we are proudly North Central Montana’s only option for steam machine ice dam removal. Using steam to remove ice dams is the fastast, easiest and safest way to alleviate ice damming issues. The Whitco steamer we use relies on high temperatures and low pressure to safely remove ice and snow from roofs, downspouts, sewer lines and more.  Insurance companies recommend this system as the best solution to ice damming as it won’t cause damage to shingles and roof components like other removal methods.

What Is An Ice Dam?

Ice dams are an accumulation of ice on various parts of your roof, depending on the slopes. They tend to occur most often near the roof edges. When the layers of snow on your roof melts, this water collects and freezes again forming an ice dam.

Dangers of Ice Dams

Ice dams place tremendous pressure on the roof structure of your home. The moisture of these dams also significantly damages your shingles, gutters and downspouts. Melting ice may cause leakages in your home if there are gaps and holes in your roofing system. And for those who are not careful, you also risk being hit by falling icicles and large chunks of ice breaking off as it heats up.

Effective Ice Dam Removal By A-1 Contractors, Inc

At A-1 Contractors, Inc, we believe that the safest and most effective way to remove ice dams is with the power of steam. Fighting fire with fire as some would say. The ice dam steaming system that we use functions using high temperatures but low pressure. The high temperatures effectively and efficiently melts the ice on your roof, this water either evaporates or drains away from your home. The low pressure of the steaming system protects your shingles as high pressure systems tend to chip away at your roofing materials.
