Environment Canada Has Issued a Snow Advisory
Earlier today, Environment Canada issues a snow advisory call for 10 - 15 cm of snow in the Edmonton and Red Deer, Alberta area.
We have some concern with this considering last year live snow loads on roof systems and the collapses that took place. At issue most specifically is larger industrial and commercial flat roof systems in the Edmonton and Red Deer areas. Live loads on roof systems are an important consideration when there is upwards 10-15 cm of snow about to load on flat roofs around the city given the over-loads last season.
Our main roofing blog has an article covering the considerations of roof snow loads and snow removal and when it should be done and why. The blog also has a number of other detailed articles about rooftop snow, snow loads, roof drainage, attic ventilation, condensation, emergency roof repair, and the general maintenance of your roof in times like these.
If you need any advise or roof snow removal or ice dam removal services call us at +1.780.424.7663 or email us at edmonton@grscanadainc.com.
Our 24 Hour Emergency Roof Repair Hotline is +1.877.497.3528.
Best of luck with the snow on your roof! Be sure to clear the roof and keep a close eye toward the roof drainage! Clean out the roof drains as the snow begins to melt.
Until Next Time,
The Team at GRS
