Is Your Roof Leaking After the Freeze?
Winter damage often hides under the snow. If you see water stains or active drips after a thaw, call us immediately.
Winter Hazards for DFW Roofs
- ❄️ Ice Dams: Built-up ice forces water under shingles.
- 🧊 Freeze-Thaw: Water expands in cracks.
- 🏗️ Heavy Snow Load: Weight risks on structures.
- 💧 The Sudden Melt: Rapid thaws reveal leaks fast.
When Snow Is a Problem
When snow melts, water runs to cold gutters and refreezes, creating a “dam.” This backs water up into your attic.
Look for icicles forming behind your gutters.
