Ice Dam Contractors In Aurora, Oh
Winter roofing in Aurora, OH isn’t optional — it’s essential. With heavy snowfall, freezing temperatures, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles, Aurora homes near Sunny Lake Park, historic neighborhoods in downtown Aurora, and residential communities across Portage County face serious winter roofing risks every year.
At S&K Construction and Remodeling LLC, we specialize in winter roofing solutions that protect homes from ice dams, roof leaks, snow load stress, and cold-weather damage, while meeting Portage County and Ohio building code requirements.
Why Winter Roofing Matters in Aurora, OH
Aurora experiences long winters with significant snow accumulation and ice buildup. These conditions commonly lead to:
- Ice dams forming along roof edges
- Water backing up under shingles
- Leaks inside walls and ceilings
- Structural stress from snow load
- Premature roof failure
Winter roofing problems often go unnoticed until interior damage appears — by then, repairs are more expensive and disruptive.
What Causes Ice Dams on Aurora Homes?
Ice dams are one of the most common winter roofing issues in Aurora.
They form when:
- Heat escapes through the attic
- Snow melts near the roof peak
- Water refreezes at the colder roof edge
- Ice blocks proper drainage
Once ice dams form, water is forced under shingles and into the home, causing hidden damage.
Homes built before modern insulation standards are especially vulnerable, particularly in older Aurora neighborhoods.
Ice & Water Shield (Ice Guard) – How It Works
Ice & Water Shield, commonly called ice guard, is a self-adhering waterproof membrane installed under shingles along roof edges, valleys, and penetrations.
Who Created Ice Guard?
Ice & Water Shield was originally developed and popularized by major manufacturers like Grace Construction Products and later widely adopted by Owens Corning, now a standard in cold-weather roofing systems.
How Ice Guard Helps in Winter
- Prevents water intrusion from ice dams
- Seals around nails and fasteners
- Provides protection even when shingles are compromised
- Required by code in cold-weather regions like Northeast Ohio
Ohio & Portage County Winter Roofing Code Requirements
Ohio building codes require Ice & Water Shield in areas prone to ice dams.
In Portage County, roofing systems must include:
- Ice & Water Shield extending at least 24 inches past the interior wall line
- Proper underlayment installation
- Adequate attic ventilation
- Compliance with snow load requirements
Failing to meet these standards can result in leaks, denied insurance claims, and failed inspections.

We called because we had a leak in our roof that needed to fix asap. We were trying to hold off till spring but Mother Nature forced our hand and had to do it sooner then later. I called at 4 oclock on Friday and Jessie was at our house … More the next morning at 10am. She was great to work with, explained all our options and gave us the ability to finance as well. 4 days later they arrived and we had a new roof in one day! Complete tear off of existing roof, replaced some damaged plywood and all new shingles. They said they would be there at 730 and they pulled in at 7:25 ready to work. Crew was very detail oriented and did impeccable clean up work. I never want to do a roof again but I know exactly who I would call and you should too!
Pictures attached are as follows: Brown 3 tab shingles are old roof. Blue grey architectural shingles is new roof -
S&K Construction did an outstanding job on my roof.
The crew was professional, fast, and the work is extremely clean. The shingle lines are straight, the ridge looks perfect, and the edges/drip edge were installed correctly. They also … More replaced bad wood the right way and cleaned everything up when they were done. The new Driftwood roof looks amazing on my house and completely upgraded the curb appeal. I highly recommend S&K for quality work and great pricing !! -
S & K Construction replaced our house and garage roofs. They did a great job! Very communicative throughout the process, the work looks solid, and the pricing seemed fair.
The only downside is whatever company they contracted with … More to replace our gutters. They seemed to have done a good job but did not communicate with us (showed up when we were at work) and left a mess behind (lots of shrapnel and rusty nails etc.).
Other than that, I highly recommend S&K themselves and would work with them in the future! -
The customer service was great from the start! They answered my inquiry fast and sent someone out for a quote 2 days later. Had a quote ready immediately after looking at the roof. Explained everything great and really helped us fine what … More worked best for us. Once they arrived for install they got right to work and communicated what was going on great. They were sure to take care of the ground area and cleanup as well. I would definitely recommend!!

Called at 9am about an ice dam / roof leak and they were out same day by 3pm to fix the issue! Very friendly service and prompt service and communication. Would definitely recommend and will use them in the future!
