Keep these 7 things in mind when dealing with the roof

5. Ice dams

When melted snow runs over built-up snow along your roof’s edge, ice dams are brought into life. The built-up dams make drainage systems completely useless, that is why you should get as much snow as possible off your roof once the snow starts melting.

6. Eaves

Internal leaks, mold, wood weakness can be caused because of water running down the house’s walls. Make sure to check the eaves for leaks and wood rot and make sure to remove bird nests if there are any and make sure to check if the eave needs any kind of repairs.

7. Gutters

If you don’t want water pooling at the foundation of your house, then you have to constantly keep an eye on your gutters and clean them from time to time and you have to make sure that the downspout angles away from your house and that all of the gutter’s connections are secure.
