Ice Dam Removal in Kissimmee, Florida

Ice dams are rare in Kissimmee, but the occasional freeze event can catch the homeowners off guard. When the snow melts on the warm roof and refreezes at the cold eaves, the ice dam backs the water up under the shingles. Ice dam removal in Kissimmee is a rarely-needed service, but it is available when the freeze hits.

Signs Your Kissimmee Roof Has an Ice Dam

• The icicles hanging from the eaves after the freeze
• The ice ridge forming at the roof edge
• The water stains on the ceiling near the eaves
• The water dripping inside the walls during the thaw
• The frozen gutters and the downspouts

Why Kissimmee Roofs Get Ice Dams (When They Do)

The ice dam needs the snow, the warm attic, and the cold eaves. Kissimmee rarely gets all three, but the freeze events that bring the snow and the cold can form the dam. The warm attic melts the snow, and the water refreezes at the cold eaves.

The damage shows up during the thaw, when the water backs up under the shingles. The prevention is the attic insulation and the ventilation that keep the roof cold.

Preventing Ice Dams in Kissimmee

• Insulate the attic — the warm attic causes the melt and the refreeze
• Vent the attic — the cold air keeps the roof cold
• Clear the gutters before the freeze — the blocked gutters hold the ice
• Seal the attic penetrations — the warm air escapes and melts the snow

Ice dam tip: in Kissimmee, the ice dam is rare, but the prevention is the same everywhere — the attic insulation and the ventilation. The cold roof does not form the dam.
