Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

While it’s less common than on other kinds of roofs, yes, ice dams can form on metal roofs. Metal roofs, particularly those with snow guards installed, can still accumulate ice at the roof edge, although ice dams on metal roofs are less likely to cause roof or interior damage than on traditional asphalt shingle roofs.

A metal roof can significantly reduce your energy bills by reflecting heat away from your home, so your cooling system doesn’t need to work as hard to keep the inside cool. After installing a metal roof, you may see up to 40% lower energy costs, depending on how energy efficient your previous roof was and your area’s average climate.

Moss grows in dark areas of roofs, including in corners and gutters. If left alone, it can grow under roofing and cause permanent damage. Here’s how to remove moss from metal roofs: 

  • Soak the moss to soften it

  • Scrub it away with a soft-bristled brush, or pick it off with your hands (be sure to wear gloves)

  • Use a moss remover that’s compatible with metal roofing, following the manufacturer’s directions

  • Remove dead moss and rinse the roof thoroughly

  • Prevent future moss growth by trimming branches, cleaning gutters, and attaching zinc strips to moss-prone areas

It’s not normal for a chimney to leak even a little bit during heavy rain. A chimney in good condition will keep rain from seeping into the chimney or house, so if you notice a small leak during a rainstorm, it’s time to call a pro for inspection. There could be damage to the flashing, chimney crown, or flue liner.

Metal roofs often benefit from snow guards because the slick surface can lead to snow avalanches off of your roof, potentially damaging cars or personal property below and putting your family at risk of injury. Low-slope metal roofs may not require snow guards if your area doesn’t see heavy snow accumulation, but it’s a good idea to install them for security.
