Ice Dams Are No Bueno!

Ice dams can be a major problem during the winter months, causing damage to your roof and home. If it is left untreated, ice dams can lead to leaks, water damage, and mold growth. Fortunately, there are steps you can take to remove ice dams and prevent them from forming in the future.

One of the most effective methods for removing ice dams is to use a roof rake to pull the snow and ice off the edge of your roof. This can be done from the ground and does not require you to climb on the roof. Be sure to work slowly and carefully to avoid damaging your shingles or gutters.

If the ice dams are severe, you may need to have us remove snow or use our specialized equipment to remove the ice itself.

We provide both snow shoveling services and have a low-pressure, high-temperature steamer to remove ice. This method ensures that we cut through the ice without damaging the shingles.

Ice Build-Up

Why Are Ice Dams So Bad Some Winters?

The Minneapolis and surrounding areas have seen a lot of snow. Temperatures can fluctuate between warm and cold. When it gets warm, the snow melts especially during the day, and then freezes at night. An additional factor is a lack of insulation in the attic and improper attic ventilation. Warm air from the house moves up into the attic warming the decking and shingles which melts the snow on the roof. Once the water hits the soffit and gutter area it refreezes. Over time, this builds up and causes issues. Our crews have seen extreme situations while shoveling roofs, discovering up to 18 inches of ice!

				I had Kingdom Builders out 4 years ago to inspect my 22 year old roof. They said I wasn't ready yet. I appreciated their honesty. Four years and too many storm chasers later I knew it was time. They gave me a fair quote (I was paying out of pocket), and everything went as scheduled, even though I had some additional work done. They did a great job and were very easy to work with. I will use them for any future roofing work and would highly recommend them.

				The Kingdom Builders were great. They were responsive, thorough, friendly, good on follow up and the wrap up details. This included the communication with the insurance company and our city for the final inspection. I would heartily reccommend The Kingdom Builders and my primary contact Tim Oberg who kept me in the loop and answered all my questions (even some more than once) 😊. Thanks a lot TKB.

				They covered up my kitchen exhaust fan roof vent along with my bathroom fan exhaust roof vent. Luckily I climbed up on the roof and noticed it so they had to rip some shingles off back down to the vents to install them. They skipped installing half of the new stove jack flashing boots. Besides messing up on those few major things they were very friendly and very nice. Everything was eventually resolved.

				I used Kingdom builders for a new roof, soffits and facia. From the start my contact, Tim Oberg, was excellent. Every aspect of my projects was given the utmost attention and consideration. I met several of the guys during the projects and EVERY ONE of them was kind and answered all of my questions with a smile. It was such a relief to know that I could trust this company to care for every detail. Absolutely recommend KB!!

				A big THANK YOU to Derek Western at Kingdom Builders. He came out and inspected our roof and with a lot of back and forth with the Insurance Company and was able to get us a beautiful new roof and gutters! We are very pleased with the workmanship and the time Derek spent on it. Again Thank you! The Swans. Bloomington

				Kingdom Builders was the only company that actually responded and gave us a quote to replace the roof and 3 skylights on our double wide manufactured home. They did an excellent job and answered all our questions. Great cleanup. After the crew left we only found one roofing nail on the ground. Will definately use again when we need new siding and windows.

				I love this local roofer; very straight and honest. Always does things right, nothing shoddy here. Stand behind all their work and the price is very very fair. Do not go with the storm chasing roofers with free inspection offers from pickups from Texas; you will regret not using a local long time roofer that has a local phone number and will be around years from now.
