Roof Leaking after Snow Storm

2/9/2022 (Permalink)

During these cold months, many homeowners are concerned about a pipe burst causing water damage throughout their home.  Another area that may cause an issue that many don’t think about is a roof leaking after an ice or snow storm.   The St. Louis area was just hit with a major snow storm in the past week.  We are now seeing rising temperatures causing the snow to melt.  During this time, you’ll want to keep an eye on your roof to ensure there isn’t water leaking into your home.  A tip to help avoid damage after a winter storm is to make sure your gutters are clear of debris so water can flow freely after it has melted.  If you find you have water leaking into your home, call us immediately to stop the problem.  SERVPRO of South Chesterfield/Wildwood is able to put a temporary fix in place to keep the water from leaking in any further into your home.  We will also be able to extract and dry out any interior areas as well.  If you find yourself in this situation, call us at 636.537.5400.
