Benefits of installing Ice & Water Shields

For any roof in the New England area, it’s important to have a support system for any ice or water dams that damages your home. Ice dams form when warmth from inside the home melts the bottom layer of snow on the roof, sending water trickling down to the edge. Once it’s exposed to frigid air, the water refreezes which leads to clogged gutters and causing the water behind it to pool up and enter into the home.

Installing an ice and water shield will protect your home from the issues that occurring during the winter months. Some benefits to having a shield on your roof:

• Protects to ultra high temperatures
• Has a non-slip walking surface
• Provides dual barrier protection
• Protects under almost all roofs
• Prevents wind-driven rain

There are several elements that can cause serious damage to your roof and anything under your roof especially in harsh weather conditions. If you notice any urgent repairs needed for your roof or in need of ice & water shields this winter.contact us at (781) 246-5622 or fill out our contact form.
