The Real Reason Your Roof Gets Ice Dams!

Ever wonder why ice dams form along the edges of your roof during winter? When warm air leaks into the attic due to poor insulation, it heats the roof deck, melts the snow, and causes refreezing at the cold eaves. Proper attic insulation, vented soffits, and baffles keep that cool air circulating to protect your roof's lifespan!

Understanding how your home breathes makes all the difference when winter hits.

Thinking of upgrading your home but worried about the demo? 🛠️ We see it all the time, trying to pry off baseboards can quickly turn into a drywall repair nightmare.

Here is our go-to trick to save your walls:
Instead of jamming a pry bar directly against the drywall, slide a wide, flat mud trowel between the baseboard and the wall first. Then, place your pry bar against the trowel. The trowel distributes the pressure across a larger surface area, allowing you to pop those baseboards off cleanly without leaving behind costly holes or cracked paint.

A little prep goes a long way in keeping your home in top shape!

Think that damaged piece of siding means you need to hire a contractor? Think again!

How to replace a piece of siding:
1. Unlock the damaged piece: Use your siding tool to hook under the bottom of the siding piece directly above the damaged one and pull outward to unlock it.
2. Remove the damaged piece: Once unlocked, use the tool to slide along the top edge to release the damaged piece from the locking mechanism. Remove any nails securing it to the wall.
3. Prepare the new piece: Measure and cut your new piece of siding to match the exact size of the damaged one.
4. Install the new piece: Slide the top of your new siding piece into the locking channel of the piece above it.
5. Secure it: Once in place, nail it into the wall (ensuring not to nail too tightly to allow for expansion) and use your tool to snap the bottom edge back into the lock of the piece below it.

Think this is how you find a gas leak? 🚫🔥
Definitely NOT.

While it makes for a dramatic video, please don’t try this at home! Using a lighter to check for a gas leak is an incredibly dangerous safety hazard that can lead to an immediate explosion.

At Atlas Peak Inspections, we take your safety seriously. When we inspect a property in Ottawa, we use professional grade gas leak detectors to identify leaks accurately and most importantly, safely! We provide peace of mind so you never have to guess about the safety of your home’s systems.

Whether you are in Orleans, Kanata, Nepean, or anywhere across the Ottawa area, we’ve got you covered.

Your Home, Your Future—Inspected with Confidence.
