What's happening on your Fairport roof?
Water is leaking into my home
Water may be held behind a roof ice ridge, although other roof defects can also cause winter leaks. Stay away from electrical hazards and unstable ceilings.
Thick ice covers the roof edge
A frozen ridge can obstruct snowmelt drainage. Professional controlled steam may help reopen an affected section.
My gutters and downspouts are frozen
Frozen gutters can obstruct runoff and stress brackets. Roof ice and gutter ice need to be assessed separately.
Large icicles are hanging
Keep people away from falling ice near doors, porches and sidewalks. Icicles do not automatically mean water is backed up on the roof.
Ice returns around a porch or dormer
Historic roof details and additions may concentrate meltwater. Recurring ice can involve heat loss or roof drainage patterns.
I need removal pricing or scheduling
Provide roof height, pitch, ice location, access conditions and whether water is leaking. We'll discuss current availability.
Why Fairport's established homes develop roof ice.
Fairport is an incorporated village within the Town of Perinton. The Erie Canal passes through the village, which contains established residential streets, historic architecture and varied roof shapes.
Older homes may include steep gables, dormers, enclosed porches and other details that create multiple roof transitions. These are places where snow collects or runoff from a higher roof reaches a lower section.
During a winter thaw, warmer roof sections may melt snow while the shaded eaves remain frozen. Repeated refreezing can produce a ridge that holds water and potentially contributes to interior leaks.
A porch roof and the main house may have different insulation and temperature conditions. This can create a localized ice problem even while the remainder of the roof drains normally.

Using Arctic Steamers around vulnerable roof details.
Ice Dam USA uses low-pressure steam to work through ice instead of chopping or spraying shingles with high-pressure water.
Controlled heat
Steam can help remove suitable ice along eaves and valleys when roof condition and access permit.
Care around older roofing
Flashing, shingles and gutters may be vulnerable to aggressive removal. Professional steam reduces reliance on force but does not eliminate risk.
Water entering your Fairport home?
Trapped meltwater may reach vulnerable roofing joints and travel through framing before becoming visible indoors. Avoid wet electrical fixtures and unstable ceilings.
Do not climb onto an icy roof or try to chop the obstruction away yourself.
