Ice Stops

Ice Stop Installation Services

There is a common misconception that many houses in Maine shouldn’t have gutters because they cause ice to back up on your roof. That is far from true! A properly installed and high-quality gutter system doesn’t have any bearing on ice build-up, as it is caused by a lack of heat hitting your roof. In fact, it's always safer to have gutters on your home to help protect your foundation from water damage. That said, if you’ve had ice problems with your gutters in the past, there’s a solution for you: ice stops. Our most recommended product is a heat trace cable that helps warm up your roof and gutters to stop ice build-up in the first place, which is very effective, especially for homeowners in Maine.
