Ice Dam Leak Repair in Bothell, WA

Ice dams form when heat escaping into the attic melts roof snow, which refreezes at the cold eaves — building a ridge of ice that traps meltwater behind it. With nowhere to go, water backs up under the shingles and into your home. Roof Leak Repair Services handles ice dam leak repair across Bothell, WA: safe removal now, and prevention so it doesn't happen again.

The critical rule: never chop at an ice dam with tools, and never use rock salt on your roof. Both destroy shingles. We remove dams with low-pressure steam — the only method that clears ice without damaging the roof — then repair the water damage and address the attic heat loss that caused it.

When You Need Ice Dam Leak Repair

• Icicles hanging from eaves (especially thick, persistent ones)
• A visible ridge of ice at the roof edge with water pooled behind it
• Water stains on ceilings or walls near exterior walls in winter
• Ice in gutters with water backing onto the roof
• Previous winter leaks that “fixed themselves” in spring

What Our Ice Dam Leak Repair Visit Includes

1. Assess: We confirm it's an ice dam (not a regular leak) and check for interior damage.
2. Steam: Low-pressure steam safely cuts channels and removes the dam — no hammers, no salt, no shingle damage.
3. Repair: Damaged shingles and underlayment are repaired; interior damage is documented.
4. Prevent: We evaluate attic insulation and ventilation — the root cause — and recommend fixes.
5. Shield: Where appropriate, ice-and-water shield membrane is added at eaves during repair.
