Ice Dam Prevention Roof Upgrade in Tannersville
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: Tannersville, PA (Poconos)
- 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.
