We check each one, document what we find with dated photographs, and put the scope in writing before work begins. That record is also what makes a storm claim defensible.

Ice Dams In Pullman: The Local Picture
Pullman sits on the open Palouse, where wind sculpts every snowfall into drifts and the hills hold cold long enough that nothing melts on its own between storms.
Campus-adjacent rentals and hillside housing dominate, with older College Hill homes carrying steep roofs and aging gutters through each winter.
When a Pullman roof starts icing at the eave, the fix is heated roof cables — and once the ice is off, winter roof services is how you keep next winter from repeating it. Full statewide detail lives on our Washington winter services page.

The Arctic Steamer® itself — the unit producing the low-pressure, high-temperature steam.
Safe Steam Ice Dam Removal For Pullman Roofs
Every Pullman job runs on the Arctic Steamer® — a dedicated ice dam removal machine that produces low-pressure, high-temperature steam. Heat does the work, so the ice separates from the roof rather than being pried off it.
Mechanical and flame methods strip roofing along with the ice. Steam is the only method that separates the two, which is why it is the standard on slate, cedar, metal and asphalt alike across Pullman.
- No physical contact — heat does the work, not force
- Shingle and warranty safe — nothing cracks, dents or tears
- Complete removal — down to the roof surface, gutters and downspouts included
- Relief channels first — if water is entering the house, we open drainage immediately
- Documented throughout — before, during and after photos for your records and any claim

How Pullman Ice Dams Break Things
Every day the dam stays, the water behind it looks for another way in
Campus-adjacent rentals and hillside housing dominate, with older College Hill homes carrying steep roofs and aging gutters through each winter.
Trim & Crown Molding Damage
The stain shows at trim because that is where the framing path ends.
Attic Sheathing & Mold
Wet decking in a sealed attic has no drying path, so mould develops.
Staining That Keeps Spreading
Dark staining and detached ceiling material. Each melt cycle widens the path the water already found.
Pullman Ice, Documented
These are the conditions our crews work on across Pullman and the surrounding communities every winter. If this looks familiar, water is pooling behind the ridge right now. The last panel shows why it happens.
Ice Dam Prevention In Pullman
Removal solves this winter. These solve the next one — and on Pullman homes that ice the same eave every year, that is the conversation worth having.
Heated Gutter Cables
Cable run through the gutter and downspout keeps the drainage path itself thawed — the piece most systems forget.
Heated gutter cables ›
Snow Retention & Slide Control
On metal roofs the danger is what slides off. Snow retention keeps the load from dropping over an entrance.

Cable Under The Snow, Working
Installed cable keeps working under accumulation, holding a drain path open through the storm rather than after it.
Heated roof cables ›
Heated Roof & Gutter Cables in Pullman

What Pullman, WA Customers Say
Real Questions From Pullman
Local answers for Pullman and the surrounding communities.
Why do Palouse roofs drift so unevenly?+
Open country wind. It scours the windward slope and stacks the leeward one, so what fell and what’s on the roof are different numbers.
Do you serve WSU-area rental properties?+
Landlord portfolios run standard here — documented, scheduled, tenant-aware.
Is there a minimum distance you will not travel around Pullman?+
Pullman and Moscow run as one route across the state line.
How far outside Pullman do your crews go?+
Yes — Pullman dispatch covers Moscow ID, Colfax, Palouse WA, Albion and the surrounding communities on the same response window. If you can see Pullman from your roof, you’re in range.
What is the honest wait time for Pullman?+
Pullman calls run on a 24-hour arrival window, and active interior leaks jump ahead of everything else in the queue. Submit the form or call (509) 740-0689 and we’ll tell you honestly where you land in the schedule.
Should I have snow cleared or wait it out — how it works here — explained?+
We look at snow type, layering and how long it’s been sitting rather than a number. On Pullman roofs, saturated or long-standing pack is the risk case, and structural signs inside the house mean call immediately.
Could there be mold after an ice dam leak — what to expect — explained?+
Wet insulation and sheathing don’t dry in a Pullman winter attic; they stay damp and dark for months. That’s why we treat a documented leak as an inspection trigger, not a closed file.
How do I know if I actually have an ice dam — the short version — the short version?+
The ridge of ice sitting on the eave is the dam; the icicles are just the visible part. Ceiling stains, peeling paint near exterior walls, or a musty attic smell mean water has already found a way in.
