Ice Dam Prevention Roof Upgrade in Slatington

Proactive roof replacement with enhanced ice dam prevention for a mountain home experiencing recurring winter leaks.

Proactive roof replacement with enhanced ice dam prevention for a mountain home experiencing recurring winter leaks.

The Challenge

This mountain home experienced ice dam leaks every winter for the past 5 years. The existing roof had no ice and water shield, inadequate ventilation, and 25-year-old 3-tab shingles that were past their lifespan.

Our Solution

We installed a complete ice dam prevention system: ice and water shield extending 6 feet from all eaves (exceeding code minimum), continuous ridge vent paired with new soffit vents for maximum airflow, and heavy-duty architectural shingles rated for extreme weather. We also added heat cable channels in the most vulnerable valleys.

Materials Used

  • Owens Corning Duration Shingles
  • Grace Ice & Water Shield (6ft from eaves)
  • Continuous Ridge Vent
  • Perforated Aluminum Soffit Vents
  • Synthetic Underlayment

Project Details

  • Location: Slatington, PA (Lehigh Valley)
  • Timeline: 1 week
  • Estimated Investment: $14,000–$18,000

Before

Aging 3-tab shingles with visible curling, ice dam staining along eaves, damaged soffit panels, and water stains on interior walls near the roofline.

After

Premium dimensional shingles with a clean, uniform appearance. Properly ventilated attic space with new ridge vent and soffit vents. No ice dams the following winter.
