Are you prepared to protect your roof during the upcoming winter?

Last year some parts of the United States seen one of the coldest winters recorded in a long time, which led to ice and snow back-up problems. This can lead to water backing up under your shingles and cause unwanted roof leaks. If you just do some preventative maintenance this could be avoided and save you money on costly spring roofing repairs. PaintBonanza recommends using EASYHEAT De-icing Cables and Garelick Roof Snow Rakes for the best way to prevent any winter back-ups.

EASYHEAT is a de-icing kit for your roof and gutter systems, which defends against clogged gutters and roof damage caused by heavy ice back-up during the winter months.

  • Metal or plastic gutters/downspouts.
