An ice dam can occur when snow accumulates on the slanted roof of a house with inadequate insulation. Warm air may then leak into the attic at penetrations form plumbing stacks, wiring, chimneys, attic hatches, recessed lighting, etc. These warm air leaks are known as attic bypasses.
Ice dams form when melted snow flows down the roof, under the blanket of snow, onto the eave and into the gutter, where colder conditions on the overhang cause it to freeze. Eventually, ice accumulates along the eaves and in the gutter. Snow that melts later cannot drain properly through the ice on the eave and in the gutter.
Ice dam removal is not something you want to try yourself. Climbing on an icy roof can be very dangerous. Do not stand and chip the ice away. This can cause damage to your roof.

Jon and Kris did a great job on our house that had ice dams. They were right on time, very professional, and did a great job keeping to the schedule they had promised. Would highly recommend using them.

We called Twin Cities Ice Dam Removal following several heavy snowfalls when we noticed water leaking into our house. Two knowledgeable workmen came out during a snowstorm and removed an ice dam, ice, some snow and huge dangerous icicles from our roof. They did a good job and we would call them again.

We had an eye camera from Twin Cities Ice Dam Removal. They were very responsive, they came out the same day we've called them, and they were really upfront with the cost. Their service is impeccable.

Team of two shoveled snow off of roof then used a hot steam de-icing machine to clear ice dams from roof. Excellent job, no roof damage as far as we have been able to see. They came on short notice when we needed them to remove ice dams. The cost seems high, but they are up on the roof on ICE!! which seems dangerous but they were pros.
