How Much Snow is Too Much for Your Roof

After the recent winter storm we received a lot of snow. Do you know how much a house roof can take? Is it time to start shoveling?

Your house was designed for a certain snow load which will depend on the area you live in. i.e. houses in areas expecting more snow will have stronger roofs... so we can't give you an answer that 3' is ok ... or too much.

If you are concerned, I like idea of a long snow shovel. Go to local hardware store and purchase a snow rake. They have a 20’ handle and you can simply pull the snow down! Fauser Home Improvement knows far too many people who have fallen off their roofs and seriously hurt themselves.
