Roof Snow Removal in LaSalle and the Surrounding Areas

Why Roof Snow Removal Matters

Flat roofs accumulate snow much faster than sloped roofs because there is nowhere for it to slide off. Regular snow removal protects the structure of your building, prevents water infiltrations, and extends the service life of your membrane.

What Happens When Roof Snow Removal Is Neglected

Structural Overload: The weight of compacted snow can exceed the roof's load-bearing capacity, causing cracks in walls, doors that stick, and creaking.

Ice Dams and Blocked Drains: Snow melts, refreezes along the perimeter and around drains, blocking all drainage. Water pools and seeps into the membrane.

Membrane Deterioration: Freeze-thaw cycles widen microcracks in seams and flashings, reducing the service life of your roof.

How Is Roof Snow Removal Performed?

1

Securing the Perimeter

Before starting, the ground-level discharge area is marked off and pedestrian access is restricted. A buffer zone is maintained all around the roof.

2

Careful Snow Removal
Snow is cleared manually or with appropriate tools. We never scrape down to the surface to avoid damaging the membrane.

3

Clearing the Drains
Drains and strainers are cleared first to allow meltwater to flow freely and prevent ice dam formation.
