Winter is nothing new to anyone who has lived in or visited Northern Michigan. But when snow melts or rain freezes, many homes are left with a buildup of snow and ice that can cause ice dams.
While a fresh blanket of snow certainly is beautiful, residents of Northern Michigan are all too familiar with shoveling their way out in sub-zero temperatures. On top of this, the intense weight of snow and ice on a roof or deck can severely damage its structural integrity.
