Florida, FL (prHWY.com) September 11, 2012 - Florida, Sep 11, 2012 - What happens to cause roof repair is mostly caused from ice and snow. When an ice storm hits, a roof is covered with a layer of ice. The weather being cold now makes the furnace kick on. As the house warms up, the warm air spreads throughout the area including the upper part of the structure. Because the internal temperature of the home is rising, the warmth melts the ice covering the roof. The water from the melting ice flows down the slope of the roof and pools in the rain gutters. The outside temperature being so cold freezes the runoff water that is now frozen solid, creating a barrier.
