We restore ice dam damage in Lake County 24 hours a day.

Our Northwest Lake County team restores ice dam damage every year in Antioch. Here are some signs of ice dam damage:

Icicles: Long icicles hanging from the roof's edge can be a sign of ice dams.

Water Stains on Ceilings and Walls: Water stains on interior ceilings and walls, especially near exterior walls and on the upper floors, can indicate that melted snow and ice have penetrated the roof and are causing leaks.

Dripping Water: Dripping water or the sound of dripping in your home during or after snow or ice may suggest that water is entering your living spaces through roof damage.

Gutter and Downspout Issues: Ice dam damage can cause gutters and downspouts to become dislodged or damaged as the ice pushes them away from the roof edge.

Damaged Roof Shingles: Ice dams can cause damage to the roof shingles, including lifting, cracking, or even dislodging them.

Icy Buildup: Visible ice or snow buildup on the roof, especially near the eaves, can indicate potential ice dam formation.

Damp Insulation or Attic: Inspect your attic for damp insulation and any signs of moisture or water damage in the attic space.

Exterior Damage: Look for signs of damage to the exterior of your home, such as damaged soffits, fascia boards, or exterior siding, which can occur when ice dams force water beneath these surfaces.
