Don’t Let Snow Avalanches Damage Your Property—or Put Someone at Risk
When heavy snow accumulates on your roof, it can suddenly release dangerous, destructive slides that threaten people, pets and property below. This risk is exceptionally high in North Idaho, where snow retention systems are often misunderstood and improperly installed.
Winter Shield can design and install snow retention systems throughout the region, using proper techniques that many contractors don’t understand. We recognize that snow compresses non-linearly on sloped surfaces, making the common practice of evenly spaced rows ineffective and potentially dangerous. Our approach to snow retention reflects a scientific understanding of snow behavior rather than following outdated and conventional practices.

Many property owners are surprised to learn that their existing snow breaks may be providing a false sense of security due to incorrect installation. Proper roof protection requires a scientific understanding of snow behavior and careful attention to structural attachment methods.
Effective snow retention must account for several critical factors, including roof type, local snowfall averages and your specific goals for snow management. Winter Shield’s experienced approach to snow management includes:
Unlike many contractors who install snow breaks in uniform patterns up the entire roof, we concentrate the system in the lower third where snow compaction and pressure are greatest. Our designs account for your specific roof type, local snowfall averages and your property’s unique protection needs, ensuring your snow retention system can withstand the substantial forces that build up during North Idaho winters.
