Benefits of Cold Roofing

The formation of “ice dams” is one of the biggest problems that roofs face in the winter months. Ice dams are formed when the heat from your roof space causes snow that has collected on top of your roof to melt. The heat warms your roof, the snow melts then the melted water runs down around your roof. It refreezes and creates a dam. As more snow melts it gets backed up by the ice dam while creating a pool of water around your roof. This water can cause significant damage to your room. There are also threats that can happen during the hotter months of the year. Heat is present everywhere during the summer months when the heat confined in your roof space meets the hot air outside. It can cook your roofing shingles from the inside out. This is mostly a problem for wood shingles. Hot air coming from your roof space will cause the wood to curl, cup, lift and create expensive repairs or nasty roofing damages that hurts your New York home’s aesthetic qualities. Cold roofing can avoid all of these problems from occurring at the professionals at keystone roofing & waterproofing NYC can ensure it’s as effective and efficient as possible.
