When an ice dam causes water intrusion in a Garfield, AZ home, local crews respond fast to contain the damage. They follow IICRC-standard methods to dry the structure and prevent further issues.
Technicians inspect the roof eave and attic to find where water entered from the ice dam. They stop any active drip to prevent more water from soaking into the ceiling and walls of the Garfield home.
The crew extracts any standing water and carefully removes waterlogged attic insulation near the eave. Bagging out this material exposes the wood framing so it can be dried effectively.
Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the sheathing and rafters. Moisture readings are taken daily until the space meets the dry standard, ensuring no hidden dampness remains.
Ice dam damage in Garfield is rare, and on the uncommon occasion it occurs cleanup generally runs $1,200 to $6,000, depending on how much water entered the attic, whether insulation and ceilings are affected, and the roof repair needed.
