Ice dam on roof — Limassol, Limassol
Ice dams form along the roof edge when snow melts from the warm upper roof and refreezes at the cold eaves. The trapped water backs up under shingles, causing leaks into attic spaces, walls, and ceilings. Left untreated, ice dams cause extensive water damage, rotting fascia boards, and mold growth. A roofer can safely remove ice dams, install ice-and-water shield membrane, and improve attic ventilation to prevent recurrence.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Limassol
Limassol's mix of flat-roofed low-rise and high-rise towers means two distinct roofing markets: bitumen/PVC membrane on villas and apartments (8–12 year life under ~3,300 sunshine hours), and complex podium and tower-top waterproofing on the skyscraper cluster. The brief but intense November–February rain season exposes membrane weakness immediately.
