A snow-covered roof being cleared in winter

Roof snow removal

Heavy snowfall creates excessive weight that can compromise your roof structure. When snow covers roof vents it blocks attic ventilation, leading to moisture buildup and a higher risk of ice damming.

Our team safely removes accumulated snow using specialized tools that won’t damage your roofing, applies de-icer to critical areas, then clears the pathways below for safe access around your property.

Ice dam removal and prevention

Ice dams form when heat escapes through your roof, melting snow that refreezes at the eaves. That ice barrier traps water and forces it under your roofing and into your home.

We assess why dams are forming — inadequate ventilation, missing insulation or weather — then safely remove existing dams without damaging your roofing. For long-term protection we install heating cables with automatic thermostat controllers along vulnerable edges.

Driveway snow removal

Many driveways have delicate paving stones, stamped concrete or tight spaces where plows cause damage. We clear snow manually with commercial-grade snowblowers and hand shovels for precision work.

After clearing, we apply a professional de-icer rated to -40°C, giving you reliable traction even during extreme cold snaps.
