About Our Services

Understanding Ice Dams and Their Impact on Your Roof

Ice dams form when snow melts on your roof and refreezes at the gutters, creating a barrier that prevents proper drainage. This trapped water can seep under shingles, causing significant damage to your roof structure, insulation, and interior spaces. As a GAF Master Elite contractor serving Long Island for four generations, Lucky Stars Roofing has seen firsthand how ice dams can devastate unprepared roofs during harsh New York winters. Our expert team provides comprehensive ice dam prevention and repair services to keep your home protected year-round.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes ice dams to form on Long Island roofs?

Ice dams typically form when heat from your home melts snow on the upper portion of your roof, but the water refreezes when it reaches the colder eaves and gutters. Poor attic insulation, inadequate ventilation, and temperature fluctuations common in the Long Island climate all contribute to ice dam formation.

How can I tell if my roof has ice dam damage?

Signs of ice dam damage include water stains on ceilings or walls, icicles hanging from gutters, ice buildup along roof edges, damaged or loose shingles, and water pooling in gutters. If you notice any of these signs, it's important to have your roof inspected by our certified professionals immediately.

Can ice dams be prevented on older Long Island homes?

Yes, even older homes can be retrofitted with ice dam prevention measures. Our team specializes in upgrading ventilation systems, improving attic insulation, and installing ice and water barriers on homes throughout Queens Nassau County, and Suffolk County. With four generations of experience, we understand the unique challenges of older Long Island architecture.
