Midvale, Utah, roofing company provides Utah residents and business owners with a professional solution for preventing roof damage from heavy winter snow build-up and ice dams.
(PRUnderground) January 15th, 2025
With snow-capped peaks surrounding the Salt Lake Valley, winter is in full swing across the state. While some valley locations are still waiting for the first deep snowfall, businesses and neighborhoods in Park City have already seen significant snowfall. Local and family-owned roofing company BigHorn Roofing has been replacing and repairing roofs in the Beehive state for over 20 years and has seen the damage frozen precipitation can cause. This year, BigHorn is prepared to help residents and businesses safely remove snow and ice before they become a hazard.
The skilled team at BigHorn Roofing is no stranger to the harsh effects of Utah’s extreme weather conditions on buildings across the state. From blistering hot summers to frigid, wet winters, the Utah climate takes a toll on roofs, siding, and windows. Professional roof snow removal helps take the weight off the roof, preventing damage or even roof collapse. It also keeps pedestrians, pets, and others safe by eliminating the chance of ice and snow suddenly falling from above.
“Snow can accumulate rapidly in Utah,” remarked Bryce Rose, President of BigHorn Roofing. “And while many are quick to clear the sidewalks and roads, the snow that builds up on roofs is often out of sight and out of mind. However, as the snow continues to fall, it gets very deep and heavy, putting a lot of weight and strain on not only the shingles but the structure of the building itself. Removing all that snow can be both arduous and dangerous, which is why BigHorn is adding snow and ice removal to our winter services this year.”
While the white coating on the roof begins as powdery snow, it can swiftly become an ice dam, creating a much more precarious situation. Ice dams form when warm air beneath the roof melts the snow above. As the water runs down the roof, it hits colder air and refreezes. Thus, the roofline becomes blocked by ice, which prevents further melting. This ice can also break free from the roof, injuring individuals below.
“The best way to avoid roof damage or serious injury from ice dams is to keep snow from building up in the first place,” stated Rose. “But if a home is prone to developing ice dams, we can perform an emergency ice dam removal and evaluate the roof. We can recommend ways to help allow the snow to melt and runoff as it should rather than refreeze. In doing so, we may be able to improve the function and longevity of the roof.”
