How Ice Dams Work
The icicles are pretty. The ceiling stain isn't.
Ice dam removal quotes for Burnsville and the south metro — steam removal that saves the shingles, and the insulation fixes that stop it happening again. A local crew calls back with a price.
Call the Ice Line — (763) 357-8645This is a referral line, not a contractor. You reach the site owner, who passes your job to an independent local ice dam contractor. Free to you; the contractor may pay a referral fee.
What the crews handle
Steam Removal
Low-pressure steam that melts the dam without chiseling your shingles to death — the method roofers recommend.
Active Leaks
Water coming in now — dams channeled and gutters opened to stop the drip. This is a call-back service, not 24-hour emergency dispatch; response time depends on the contractor.
Roof Snow Raking
Heavy-load removal after the big dumps, before the melt-freeze cycle builds the dam.
Fix the Cause
Attic air-sealing and insulation quotes — because the dam is a symptom and the attic is the disease.
Never let anyone chip a dam off with a hatchet. Chisels and hammers take shingles with them; steam doesn't. And if a crew quotes prevention without mentioning your attic, they're selling you next winter's repeat visit.
