Roof snow removal

Safety first!

Latvian winters are unpredictable, and rapidly changing winter weather causes considerable concern for building owners and managers. A thick layer of snow on roofs, along with ice and icicles at roof edges, poses risks to residents and passers-by: falling from roof height, this material can cause serious injury or even death. During the frequent thaws of a Latvian winter, accumulated roof snow melts and then rapidly refreezes, damaging both the roof covering and equipment installed on it, such as solar panels and aerials. Regular winter roof maintenance is therefore very important: removing accumulated snow, ice and icicles. Roof snow removal prevents danger to people and potential damage to the roof and building, extending the service life of the roof and other building elements.

Clearing snow from a flat roof

Although snow needs to be cleared from roofs of all designs, it is particularly important on flat roofs. Accumulated snow puts a heavy load on the roof structure: this substantial additional weight can cause unwanted structural deformation and other building damage. Ice is another major problem, as it usually forms a thicker layer on a flat roof and adds further weight. When this ice melts, it also produces a large amount of moisture, which can damage the building. For these reasons, clearing snow from a flat roof is especially important: it prevents damage and significantly extends the service life of the building and roof.
