Survive Minneapolis Winters: Roof Raking, Snow Removal, and Ice Dam Prevention Done Right

Minneapolis winters are no joke. From heavy snowfall to treacherous ice dams, the challenges of winter can quickly pile up—literally. While the idea of tackling snow-covered driveways or icy rooftops yourself might seem tempting, it’s not worth risking injury or hours of backbreaking work. At The Lawnsmith, we take care of your winter maintenance so you can stay safe, warm, and stress-free.

Why Winter Maintenance Matters

1. Prevent Ice Dams
   • Ice dams form when snow melts and refreezes on your roof, causing leaks and structural damage.
   • Roof raking safely removes snow to prevent costly damage to your home.
2. Avoid Slip and Fall Injuries
   • Shoveling and salting icy sidewalks and driveways is strenuous and dangerous.
   • Every year, countless injuries occur due to slips and falls on ice-covered surfaces.
3. Protect Your Roof and Property
   • Accumulated snow puts stress on your roof and can lead to long-term structural issues.
   • Professional removal ensures your home stays protected throughout the winter.

The Risks of DIY Snow Removal

Many homeowners underestimate the risks involved with winter maintenance:

• Physical Strain: Shoveling snow and clearing ice are physically demanding tasks that can lead to overexertion, muscle injuries, or worse—heart attacks.
• Ladder Accidents: Climbing ladders to rake snow off your roof is incredibly dangerous, especially in slippery conditions.
• Improper Techniques: Without the right tools, you risk damaging your roof, lawn, or driveway while clearing snow.
