“Nick Moran was my tech. We have lived in this house for 20 years and never had an ice dam. After a week of cold weather and a big snow storm, I woke to water streaming through a window sill in our 2nd floor bathroom. They are very pricey, but got back to me within 24 hours (we did play phone tag) and were able to come that afternoon (when I am sure many other people were having the same issue). Nick was honest. Told me it could take up to 4-5 hours. He was done in 2. Dam gone. Snow clear from roof and gutters free of ice.” – Christopher Martell, Dorchester, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
“My man Peter showed up only a couple hours after I called and booked the appointment. He was super professional, helpful, and honest about his time. He essentially removed all ice AND snow from my roof and the leak is no more. The service is pricey, but you get what you pay for, and you get the job done quickly and correctly. Although I am a happy customer, I hope I never have to call them again!” – Mark Toskey, Waban, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
“The Ice Dam guys were quick to respond to removing an ice dam that was causing damage inside our walls and wrecking our new floors. The Boston winter saw a record amount of snow-fall this year. Despite the difficult conditions, the Ice Dam guys came out quickly as scheduled. We did not have to track them down and the work was high quality. They are not cheap, but they are worth the money, especially if that means avoiding higher expenses down the line for fixing damage caused by ice dams that are not removed. I highly recommend them.” – Dan & Melanie Rudoy, Needham MA (see review on Google Maps)
In Boston’s record-breaking winter of 2015, we sent 36 Ice Dam Guys® techs – and our entire fleet of customized steamers – from Minnesota to Massachusetts to help Boston-area homeowners protect their homes from leaks and other damage.

Ice dam on roof in Hyde Park, January 2026

Steam ice dam removal in-progress on roof of Hyde Park home, January 2026
As we removed ice dams in 150 communities in Massachusetts in 2015 alone, Boston’s news channels noticed us. Since then we’ve removed ice dams in the Boston area in 3 different winters and in even more communities.

We worked around the clock, partly because Massachusetts seems not to have any companies that specialize in ice dam removal. In fact, there aren’t many specialist ice dam removal companies anywhere. Other companies went to Boston after us, but they jacked up their rates, price-gouging Bostonians all the while. (Remember when the Garden was replaced by the “Fleece Center”?)
We’ve also sent Ice Dam Guys® techs to Boston in the winters of 2017, 2018, 2022, and 2026. Every year, we’ve helped homeowners in a pinch, though we’re glad to say the scene hasn’t been as chaotic as in 2015.
From the moment I called the 800 number (at around 4:00 p.m. yesterday) and spoke with Alyssa, I felt reassured and that we were in good hands. She assessed our problem, looked up our home on Google maps, and promised that someone would get to our house between 8 and 9 a.m. today (the very next day). Taylor arrived at 8:20 and got right to work. We have a difficult house — three floors and a steep roof with pretty difficult access — but Taylor made it work. He was up on our roof in 5 degree-temperatures with a -9 degree wind chill, and he was up there for about 4 hours. He took care of our ice dams and also preventively steamed another nearby part of the roof and siding. And throughout, from the moment he arrived until he finished, he couldn’t have been nicer or more professional. I absolutely recommend Ice Dam Guys to everyone — even though they are not cheap — but you do get what you pay for and then some, so it’s well worth the money. And IF/when we ever have another ice dam, these guys will be the first ones I call. Thank you so much, ICE DAM GUYS!!!” – Evie Weinstein-Park, Jamaica Plain, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
“Nick and Darius were amazing!! They showed up just hours after I called. Efficient. Super work. Curteous and took their time to talk me through my options. HIGHLY recommend!!” – Rachel Barenbaum, Brookline, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
“Nick and Darius were wonderful! They came within hours of our call. Incredibly professional. Cleaned off the ice damns and helped us identify the causes. Hopefully we do not need ice dams removed again but if we do, absolutely calling ice dam guys.” – Sarah Monahan, Sharon, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
“I have used Ice Dam Guys in both Minneapolis and also in the Boston area. Once you have leaking from an Ice Dam into your house, you need to get the issue addressed quickly. Ice Dam Guys are incredibly responsive, will answer or return your call within hours and get someone there the same or next day. Eli worked on our house for a number of hours this winter, kept us informed of his progress throughout, and the issue was taken care of. If you need to deal with this issue, I highly recommend this company.” – Laura Eisen (read review on Google Maps)
No Trip Charges
We did not and will never charge Boston-area residents a penny more than we would in Minnesota. Our prices don’t change, no matter where we’re doing our steaming. We don’t think that would be fair or right. We don’t even have a need for “trip charges”: if you’ve got an ice dam, so do your neighbors, which means we’re probably in town already.
“These guys were outstanding. They came in from Minnesota to Massachusetts and helped me and my family out immensely. We went from water pouring in our bathroom windows to completely clear after about 4 hours of work. I don’t know what we would have done with this service over the winter. Many thanks to Jay and the team.” – Joe Sullivan, Westwood MA (read review on Google Maps)

“Ice dams suck. I’ve lived in Boston 43 years and never had one before. After the worst winter in Boston history, I finally had an ice dam. I’ve got a super-steep roof. These guys came when they said would and worked real hard removing the dam. Real good experience working with these guys – I hope I never need an ice dam removal company again, but If I do, I’ll call The Ice Dam Guys®.” – Colin H, Boston MA (read review on Thumbtack)
“Darius from Ice Dams is a full-on winter superhero and I’m not even being over the top about this. He was communicative, punctual, and somehow showed up, in the dark at 6pm with a headlamp, trudging through 3 feet of snow in -8 degree weather, to climb 30 feet onto our roof and spend four straight hours removing a 6-inch deep, 14-inch wide ice dam that was leaking through two floors of our house. By the time he finished, his outer gear was literally frozen solid — and yet he remained kind, patient, personable, and calm the entire time. Watching him work in those conditions was honestly unreal. I hope to god that he gets the bulk of what ice dam guys charges bc his job is nuts and you couldn’t pay me any amount of money to do what he does. This was hands-down the best experience I’ve ever had with a vendor. Professional, brave, thorough, and just a genuinely good human. Ice dam guys is a good vendor – but this dude Darius is an absolute legend.” – Sarah Mackin, Sudbury, 2026 (see review on Google Maps)
