Professional ice dam removal serving Franklin Town and surrounding areas.
Ice dam removal in Franklin comes from two rooflines: the older homes near the Square whose attics were never air-sealed, and the newer subdivisions whose recessed lights and top plates leak heat into a roof deck insulated to the minimum the code allowed. Either way, the physics is the same — heat escapes the living space, melts snow high on the roof, the melt runs to the cold eave and refreezes, and the dam grows until meltwater pools behind it and backs under the shingles into the ceiling below. Water Damage Pros US removes ice dams across Franklin with low-pressure steam — the method that melts the dam without wrecking the shingles — and handles the interior damage the dam already caused, from the eave ceiling to the soaked attic insulation.

Removing the dam without fixing the heat loss is a subscription — same roof, same dam, same ceiling stain next winter, and the bypass that feeds it never takes a year off. The ice is a symptom; the warm attic is the disease. Steam clears this winter’s emergency, and the air-sealing scope keeps next winter’s from ever forming.
