I’m sure when February first rolled around we all had a moment when we said to ourselves, “It’s February, and spring can’t be too far away.”

Well, all you need to do is look out your window to see the results of the snowiest season on record here on the Main Line. As you look out the window I bet you can see icicles hanging from your gutters. Yes they look pretty, but the ice that has built-up in your gutters can cause a lot of damage. One gallon of frozen water weighs nearly 8 lbs!

Stand back and take a look at the gutters of your house and you will soon realize that there is a significant amount of weight pulling the gutters away from the fascia. During the warmer days the ice melts and water seeps into areas that are normally protected and when the water freezes at night it will expand and cause more damage (this is known as a freeze thaw cycle).

Over the next 6 weeks our area will experience many of these freeze thaw cycles and can cause the paint on your home to crack and peel.

It’s never too early to start planning for spring. Call us today to set-up an early March appointment to assess any damage the winter may have caused. We will have an estimate back to you within a day or two.
