In <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/vanmartinroofing.com\/dayton\/service-area-locations\/dayton-ohio\/\">Dayton, Ohio<\/a><\/span>, if there is one thing we are known for it\u2019s our unpredictable weather. Many Dayton residents feel the scorching heat of the summers, the intense rain of spring, and the abundance of snow in the winter. And it looks like it\u2019s not planning to let up in 2021.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This winter has been a very unusual one, and it looks like we\u2019re just now seeing the worst of it. The past few weeks have been filled with slippery ice, inches of snow, and brutal winds. Experts say there\u2019s still more to come, so you want to make sure your roof is prepared for the worst.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your residential or commercial roof is the only barrier standing between your property and the elements of Mother Nature. Snow damage repairs aren\u2019t cheap, so it\u2019s only natural to want your property in its best condition. If not kept with regular <span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/vanmartinroofing.com\/dayton\/roof-repair\/\">roof maintenance<\/a><\/span>, it could experience a small leak, or even in the worst-case scenario, a cave-in! Down below we\u2019ve explained the three greatest threats to your roof during the winter, as well as how to prevent those risks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Weight of Snow &amp; Damage<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps the most obvious risk of winter is the snow. If too much snow builds up, it could mean a potential collapse. There are several factors that play into how much weight of snow your roof can take. Those factors are:<\/span><\/p><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Age<\/span>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The older it is, the more likely it is to collapse. Even minimal snow can collapse older awnings. Older roofs are more prone to corrosion, which weakens the structure even more!<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Material<\/span>: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Certain types of material tend to withstand the weight of the snow a bit better. For example, lightweight metal roofs only withstand so much snow. While fully shingled roofs are able to withstand much more weight.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><b>Slope: <\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flat roofs typically are much more prone to collapse from the weight of snow. The slope on steeper ones allows for more snow to fall off much easier.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A roof replacement can be an expensive venture. If you&#8217;re unaware of the condition of your roof, <\/span><b>do not assume it<\/b> <b>is fine. <\/b><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/vanmartinroofing.com\/dayton\/schedule-online\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact a reliable roofing contractor and gain a professional\u2019s opinion on the matter!<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Melting &amp; Snow Damage<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the snow melts all of that excess water could pose a danger to your property. If the water is not able to properly flow off the roof surface, it could pool up in certain places. These pools could lead to mildew, leaks, or quite possibly even a flood. That\u2019s why <\/span><b>you don\u2019t want the snow on top of your roof melting.\u00a0<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To prevent melting snow, make sure the attic of your property is well ventilated. For instance, if your attic is producing too much heat, then the snow will melt. And this is the perfect set-up for <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ice dams.<\/span><\/i><\/p><h2><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><b>Ice Dams<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ice dams are thick and wide ridges of ice that conform around the edges and prevent water or snow from properly draining off of your roof. They can cause any number of problems, from the excessive weight of the ice to harmful mold and mildew from standing water above the dam. Interested in preventing ice dams?
