Description of Work: I really don't remember the date last winter--I had someone look at the roof & offer to shovel the south half off for $1000 or so. It seemed a lot (but probably was reasonable) and I looked into further bids, and seemed to find info that steaming was better for an ice dam. Ice dam removal guys only removed the dam and some adjacent ice, but (as I'd expected) this proved enough, and the leaking in the house did not recur. They were fast and responsive. The kid seemed a little young to me, but he was prompt and fast and didn't even bill me as much as I expected.

Description of Work: I paid for this service and contacted the provider via email. I suggested several dates for service. I received one contact back, but no follow through on a date for service. The provider did not provide any service despite the fact that I paid for the coupon. Very disappointing.

Response from Ice Dam Guys
We are sorry that we were unable to provide service to everyone that contacted us. This was undoubtedly our busiest ice dam season to date and it was simply impossible to get to everybody. Purchasing a coupon through Angies List does not equate to contracting for services, it is simply a coupon for discounted service. If you have not already done so you may request a refund from Angis list, there should be no problem with that. Again, we apologize.

Hello [member name removed], Based upon the information you submitted, I believe you have the wrong company. I searched our entire database for your last name, then your address, and then finally as a last resort I looked at each and every job on March 3rd and there were no jobs with that dollar amount due. Please kindly remove this review as it hurts our overall grade with Angie's List (one we've worked very hard for). If the data you entered is inaccurate, and you're sure that we provide you service, please call us in the office so that we may rectify any problem that you may of had. Customer service truly means the world to us, and we will stop at nothing to ensure our customers expectations were exceeded!

We discovered some significant ice dams in our gutters that appeared to be close to lifting the shingles on our roof. We did not have any leaking problems, but knew we probably needed to address the problem right away. We called The Ice Dam Guys and they said they would be able to come out to our house within a few hours. In the meantime, my husband climbed the ladder to inspect the dams a bit more and called a friend who had a similar experience. The friend suggested a couple options before having someone come out to professionally remove them. We called The Ice Dam Guys back to let them know we were going to wait and see before we decided to have the work done, and they were very understanding. They had no problem cancelling our appointment and said to let them know if we had any questions. We really appreciated their willingness to help and understanding when we decided not to pursue the job further.
Description of Work: We called the Ice Dam Removal Guys on a Saturday after discovering some significant ice dams on our roof.

They did a great job. I highly recommend this company. They were able to come out on the same day I called, which is always impressive. They were professional, nice, and did everything needed. The price is a bit high, but they do use top-quality equipment and get the job done properly. Extra thanks to Mike, who did the project himself. He was very thorough and very friendly. A pleasure to interact with. I also appreciate that he shoveled the roof-ice off our sidewalks when he finished. The person on the phone (our first contact) was also courteous and helpful.

Thanks for your great feedback (member name removed). We're glad we could be there for you when you needed us! I passed your review along to MIke and he was thrilled to hear you took time out of your day to leave him/us some positive feedback. Jay (whom you spoke with on the phone) was also happy to hear about your positive experience with him. Having your ice dams "professionally" removed via safe and gentle steam can be expensive - we're sensitive to that and make every effort possible to be quick and efficient (yet not damage your roof). We all go the extra mile to make your experience with us is pleasant as possible from beginning to end. Lets hope your future is ice dam free, but should you need us - we'll be here for you (member name removed). Thanks again for your business and your kind words!

I am completely satisfied with the work that was done. Mike also made suggestions on how to prevent this in the future.
Description of Work: I called the company at 9:30 on a Sat. and by noon the technician arrived to remove ice dams from my home. Mike discovered the gutters were filled with ice and another 4" had built up on top of that. He worked extremely hard using steam and breaking up the ice by hand. This was a very cold day but he persisted - never taking a break - trying to finish in the 2 hour minimum time frame. It took slightly longer and he apologized for that. My gutters and roof are now free from the ice dams and I am extremely grateful for this professional service.

It was an absolute pleasure working with you Leanne. Your kind words made my day - thank you! It was bitterly cold out that day and I know Mike was doing his very best to impress you. "Professional & Safe" ice dam removal is very expensive, and we're all cognizant of that. Mike (along with all our technicians) are constantly striving to do the most amount of work in the shortest amount of time - all the while maintaining the safety of themselves and your home. We very grateful for your business and your kind words. Thank you so much Leanne! ~Joe

We had a leak coming in through a light fixture in a home that is less than two years old. We thought there was an ice dam so we called to have someone come out to steam our roof. Josh showed up promptly at the time we were given and determined very quickly the issue was not an ice dam. He went up into our attic and determined there was a pipe that went from our furnace up thru the attic to e vent in the roof. It was leaking near the roof of the house, dripping down onto the plastic, into the insulation and down into the light fixture. He suggested we contact our builder since our house is less than two years old. Everyone I spoke to starting with Jay who first returned my call, to Joe (the owner)', who called me back regarding some questions I had and last but not least, Josh who completed the work, they were all extremely helpful and professional. We will call these guys in the future. I would recommend these guys to anyone. Not e least expensive but you get what you pay for.

I called them last year and got a quote on some work. This year I called them back and pulled the trigger. Joe responded back to me right away every time, and we set a date for the work to be done. On the evening of that date I got home to Joe's crew just finishing up, and I was very happy with the results. This was definately one of my lower stress engagements with a contractor in a while. I am absolutely planning on using them again.
Description of Work: I've used these guys in the past and they were great, they did high quality work, showed up on time, came in on budget, and even threw in some extra work for me free of charge.

I called around 3 in the afternoon on a Saturday (when I noticed the issue) and called them up. The women said it would be approximately 1-1 1/2 hours before someone could get there but a technician would call me in the next 20 minutes. Both were true although I think it was closer to just an hour for the guy to come. He then hooked up to the water faucet and set up. He shoveled the areas above the ice dams and then cut the ice into chunks and it came down. They have a 2 hour minimum and he was there for 3 hours, but at the 2 hour mark he asked if I wanted him to continue or what I wanted. He worked even while it was dark and did great work! Very professional and hard working. I would definitely recommend them, they did great work and were very punctual. I didn't do a ton of research on price because I was more concerned with someone coming to clear our ice dams to prevent further damage.
Description of Work: Got rid of our huge (1'-1 1/2') ice dams on the north side of our house where we were having a lot of leakage into the house. He also created a channel on the other side and cleared away at the gutter.
