ICE
DAM INFO
If you have a lot of snow on your roof
or icicles hanging off your gutters your home may have an
ice dam.
An ice dam is a condition that develops when water and snow
freeze and cause the gutter system to fail. Damage from ice
dams can run the gambit from mild to major. Remodeling
expert Roger Blitz of BGE Home explains how to fix this common
problem.
