CLEAR YOUR ROOF AND GUTTERS
- Clean the gutters and downspouts: Take out leaves, twigs, and other debris to make sure water can drain properly away from your house.
- Trim branches: Shorten any tree limbs that hang over the roof to stop them from harming shingles during storms or dropping debris onto your roof.
- Remove debris from the roof surface: Clear away any debris that has gathered in roof valleys or around vents and skylights to avoid moisture buildup.
INSPECT AND REPAIR YOUR ROOF
- Conduct a visual inspection: Check for damaged, loose, or missing shingles, as well as any cracks or deterioration around flashing, vents, chimneys, and skylights.
- Examine seals and caulking: Make sure the sealant around roof penetrations is intact and hasn’t deteriorated.
- Address any damage: Fix any issues quickly to prevent them from escalating into larger problems during winter weather.
ENHANCE ATTIC INSULATION AND VENTILATION
- Insulate your attic: Proper insulation stops heat from escaping your home into the attic, which helps keep the roof surface cooler and lowers the chance of ice dams forming.
- Ventilate your attic: Adequate attic ventilation helps release moisture and keeps a more consistent temperature, which also aids in preventing ice dams
