Ice Dam RemovalMinneapolis, MN
Ice dams form when melting snow refreezes at the colder eaves, blocking proper drainage. Professional removal using low-pressure steam safely melts ice without damaging shingles, gutters, or roofing materials.

Ice Dam Removal FAQs
Common questions Minneapolis homeowners ask about ice dams and our removal services.
When should I call for ice dam removal in Minneapolis?
Call as soon as you notice ice building up along your eaves, large icicles forming, or — most urgently — water stains on your interior ceilings or walls. Ice dams can cause thousands of dollars in water damage if left untreated. The sooner we remove them, the less risk to your home.
How much does ice dam removal cost in Minneapolis?
Ice dam removal pricing depends on the size and number of ice dams, roof accessibility, and whether it is an emergency call. We provide honest, upfront quotes before starting work. Most residential jobs fall within a range that homeowners find reasonable given the damage ice dams can cause if ignored.
Is steam ice dam removal safe for my roof?
Yes. Low-pressure steam is the safest method available for ice dam removal. Unlike hammering, chipping, or using salt, steam melts the ice without any physical impact to your shingles, flashing, or gutters. It is the method recommended by roofing professionals and insurance companies.
Can I remove an ice dam myself?
We strongly advise against it. Climbing on an icy roof is extremely dangerous, and using tools like hammers, picks, or heat cables can damage your shingles and void your roofing warranty. Salt and chemical melters can corrode gutters and harm landscaping. Professional steam removal is the only method that is both safe for you and safe for your roof.
Do you offer emergency same-day ice dam removal?
Yes. If an ice dam is actively causing leaking inside your home, we prioritize your call and do everything we can to get a crew to you the same day. Call us at (612) 554-8106 and let us know it is an emergency so we can respond as quickly as possible.
