Ice Dam Steaming
PROTECT YOUR ROOF FROM ICE DAMS & DAMAGE
Ice can be a problem in Alaska…
​Well that was an understatement, Spit Shine usually removes ice dams from roofs but we can remove ice anywhere you want it gone. Don’t let ice be a risk to you, your loved ones, or your home!
We remove ice safely by steam which is the only recommended method from American Pressure Inc.​
The ARCTIC STEAMER is a machine that heats up water to 290 degrees to create steam that is 100% safe for your roof! We are one of the few companies in Alaska to safely operate an Arctic Steamer.

ICE DAM STEAMING QUESTIONS
•
Why are ice dams bad?
Ice Dams prevent water from running off the roof like normal. Instead the water backs up and can get under the roof surface causing leaks. Ice Dams are also very heavy and tear off parts of your gutter system!​
Do you offer free estimates?
The only service we do not offer free estimates for is ice dam removal. Generally, we will need to remove the snow to see how big the ice dam is.​
