Ice Dam Removal in Appleton, WI
Icicles along the eaves look pretty until water starts dripping inside. Our Appleton partner removes ice dams with steam — no roof damage, no waiting for spring.
Our Ice Dam Services
From emergency steam removal to prevention, everything ice dams in one place.
Ice Dam Removal
Low-pressure steam cuts through ice dams without harming shingles or gutters. The safe alternative to hammers and picks.
Roof Snow Clearing
Heavy snow loads raked and cleared before they become ice dams. Especially worth it after back-to-back lake-effect storms.
Ice Dam Prevention
Heat cable installation and ventilation advice that stops dams from forming. Prevention beats emergency removal every time.
Emergency Leak Response
Water coming through the ceiling during a thaw gets priority. Temporary channels cut to drain trapped water fast.
Attic Insulation Assessment
A look at insulation depth and air sealing, since escaping heat is the root cause of most dams. Fix the cause, not just the symptom.
Gutter Ice Removal
Gutters frozen into solid blocks cleared so meltwater has somewhere to go. Often the missing piece in repeat dam problems.
The icicles look charming until the brown stain starts spreading across the bedroom ceiling.

Warm air leaking into the attic melts snow on the upper roof. The water runs down to the cold eaves, refreezes, and builds a dam that forces later meltwater under the shingles. Poor insulation and air sealing are almost always the root cause.
That's correct. Low-pressure steam melts the ice without the mechanical damage that chipping, hammering, or high-pressure water causes. It's the method roofers recommend when the roof has to survive the process.
The icicles aren't the problem; the dam behind them is. Knocking ice with tools usually damages shingles and gutters without fixing the leak. Leave the roof work to someone with steam equipment.
Active interior leaks get same-day priority. Non-emergency removal is scheduled in order, and the queue gets long after big freeze-thaw swings, so earlier calls get earlier slots.
They help in the right spots, like valleys and north-facing eaves, but they're a bandage over the real issue. Air sealing and insulation fix the cause. A good contractor will tell you which your house actually needs.
Often yes for the resulting water damage, though policies vary on the removal cost itself. Document the damage with photos before and during removal.
