Expert Roof Snow Removal for Connecticut Properties
Connecticut winters bring heavy snowfall that can create serious hazards for your property. While a fresh blanket of snow looks beautiful, excessive accumulation on your roof poses real dangers: structural damage from weight overload, ice dams that force water into your home, and potential roof collapse in extreme cases. When snow piles up beyond safe levels, professional removal isn't just recommended - it's essential.
Restoration Control provides professional roof snow removal services throughout Connecticut, helping homeowners and businesses protect their properties during harsh winter weather. Our experienced crews understand Connecticut building codes, snow load calculations, and safe removal techniques that protect your roof while eliminating dangerous weight. We respond quickly during and after major storms, often providing same-day service when you need it most.
Don't risk injury or roof damage by attempting snow removal yourself. Falls from roofs are a leading cause of winter injuries in Connecticut, and improper removal techniques can damage shingles, gutters, and flashing. Our professional crews use proper safety equipment, proven methods, and comprehensive insurance to remove snow safely and effectively.

Understanding Snow Load Limits for Connecticut Roofs
Connecticut building codes require roofs to support specific snow loads based on location and roof design. Most residential roofs are designed for 30-50 pounds per square foot (PSF). However, actual snow weight varies dramatically:
Snow Weight Guidelines:
- •Fresh, fluffy snow: 3-8 pounds per cubic foot
- •Packed snow: 15-20 pounds per cubic foot
- •Wet, heavy snow: 20-40 pounds per cubic foot
- •Ice: 57 pounds per cubic foot
This means 18 inches of wet snow can exceed safe load limits on many Connecticut roofs. Restoration Control monitors accumulation and recommends removal before dangerous levels are reached.
Warning Signs You Need Immediate Snow Removal
Ice Dam Prevention and Removal
Ice dams are a major problem for Connecticut homeowners during winter. They form when heat escapes through inadequate attic insulation, melting snow that refreezes at roof edges. The ice buildup prevents proper drainage, forcing water under shingles and into your home.
Restoration Control addresses ice dams through multiple approaches: safe steam removal that won't damage shingles, heat cable installation for problem areas, attic ventilation improvements to reduce heat loss, and insulation upgrades to prevent future formation. We also clear gutters and downspouts to ensure proper drainage when snow melts.
Never attempt to remove ice dams with hammers, chisels, or salt - these methods damage roofing materials and void warranties. Professional steam removal is the only safe, effective approach.
