Ice dams develop when warm air from inside a home melts snow on the upper part of the roof, and that water freezes again near the colder roof edge. As the ice builds up, it prevents proper drainage, allowing water to push beneath the shingles and seep into walls and ceilings, leading to potentially expensive home damage.
