Step 1 of 7 · Question 1 of 1

What's happening? (required)

A real person responds within 24 hours.

What’s included

This is the work itself, item by item. If your job does not need one of these, it is not on your estimate.

  • Roof snow clearing

    Snow load reduced from the roof without damaging the shingles or the flashing.

  • Steam ice removal

    Ice dams removed with low-pressure steam, which melts ice without chipping the roof.

  • Channel cutting

    Drainage channels opened through a dam so trapped meltwater can get off the roof.

  • Gutter and downspout thawing

    Blocked troughs and downspouts cleared so the system drains again.

  • Leak source inspection

    We look for where water is actually entering, not just where the stain appears.

  • Ventilation and insulation review

    The attic conditions that cause ice dams are identified so the problem can be fixed, not repeated.

  • Prevention work in season

    Insulation, air sealing, venting and membrane upgrades carried out when the weather allows.

  • Property protection

    Landscaping, walkways and entries protected from falling snow and ice.

How it runs

Every job we take on follows the same sequence, from the first call to the walkthrough.

  1. Tell us what is happening

    Water inside, icicles, or a heavy snow load — and how urgent it is.

  2. We call you back

    Within 24 hours, and sooner where water is coming into the house.

  3. Assessment and written estimate

    We look at the roof and the attic, and set out what we will do in writing.

  4. Protection and access

    Ground protected and safe access set up before anybody goes up.

  5. Snow and ice removal

    Snow cleared, ice steamed out, and drainage channels opened.

  6. Drainage restored and leak check

    Troughs and downspouts cleared, and entry points identified.

  7. Prevention plan

    We give you the attic and roof work that stops it recurring, to schedule in season.

That is the whole job. Tell us about yours and we will price it — a real person calls you back within 24 hours.
