Snow and Ice Roof Damage Repair for Denver Properties

Protect Your Colorado Property from Snow & Ice Damage

Winter in Denver, Colorado, brings heavy snow and ice, which can wreak havoc on roofs. Vertical Roofing specializes in identifying and repairing snow and ice damage to ensure your property remains safe and secure during Colorado’s harsh winters.

Common Winter Roof Issues

Denver’s freeze/thaw cycles and heavy snowfall create unique challenges for roofs. Knowing the signs of damage can save you time and money:

  • Ice Dams: These form when snow melts and refreezes at the roof’s edge, blocking proper drainage and causing leaks.
  • Ponding Water: Flat or low-slope roofs can collect standing water, leading to membrane damage or leaks.
  • Cracked or Deformed Materials: Look for cracks, blisters, or other deformities caused by freezing and thawing.
  • Interior Leaks: Water stains or leaks inside your home or building may indicate roof issues.
  • Damaged Gutters and Downspouts: Snow and ice buildup can deform or break these critical drainage components.

Ice Dams: What You Need to Know

Ice dams are a leading cause of roof damage during Colorado winters. These occur when heat from your home melts snow on the roof, which refreezes near the edges. Over time, this blocked water can seep into your roof, causing leaks and structural damage.

Preventing Ice Dams

  • Proper Ventilation and Insulation: Ensure your attic is well-ventilated to regulate temperature and prevent melting.
  • Clean Gutters Year-Round: Debris-free gutters allow water to flow away from your roof.
  • Use a Roof Rake: After snowstorms, safely remove excess snow to minimize buildup.

Dealing with winter roof damage is stressful, but filing an insurance claim doesn’t have to be. Vertical Roofing works directly with your provider to:

  • Document the damage with detailed reports.
  • Provide accurate repair estimates.
  • Advocate for the coverage you deserve.
