Snow Roofing Writes....Removing roof snow,now that's something we can all agree upon,is a pain in the you know what (smile)...Removing,and how to shovel your roof safely is never a thing we like to do,but have to do,and most importantly do it right.I make my roof shoveling a pain the the arse just because having to do it,is worthy enough to say it is just that,but I make it easy as possible using the right tools,and not trying to accomplish is all in ten minutes,so that's why.It's time consuming,and that's healthier than making it out to be more physical,than it actually should be.I try to get as much of the snow off my roof as possible.I'd go to the top of my roof if I could,with my aluminum roof rake.It's light weight,but I like staying with a rake 20-25 feet at most,and the reason for that is operating it,without it swinging al over the place.Not only that,but the longer a person has to pull,the heavier that snow feels.Use a step ladder if all possible,make sure it's sturdy,and out of the path of the falling snow that you're pulling off the roof with the snow rake.I know this sounds more demanding,and making it out to shoveling snow off roofs is a for sure heart attack,it is not.Using a ladder is a must for me,and alot of home owners when it comes to this task.It helps by getting a person up closer to the snow on the roof,and thus being closer makes it all that much easier to pull off a roof.Plus,the more snow you get off,the less melt ya have for potential ice dams.When it comes to getting snow off a roof,take it slow,take your time,and take small bites off your roof with the snow rake.Don't kill yourself.Do a little each day if need be,make it a game,and by taking your time looking at it this way,will make it be a chore more time consuming,than anything else.Don't let roof snow get you down.Be a man about it,and get it down off your roof.Especially try to get it soon after the snowfall as possible.Snow compacts in a matter of hours.Not just from it's weight,but the day light.Left there long enough with the right conditions,it can turn to pure ice.Pure ice expands,and that's what makes ice dams especially a damaging thing to your home.This is why getting the most snow off your roof as possible,can save you alot of time,trouble,and cost down the road.Roof snow shoveling is something we all have to take serious,accept it as a pain in the rear end,but remember to do it right....Strategy..:)
