Professional De-Icing and Ice Dam Removal in Twin Cities
An ice removal company that doesn't feel slippery
Green Horizons uses steamers to replace dangerous ice build-up with unwavering peace of mind.
There is no shortage of hammers and hatchets or shady operations that advertise themselves as ice removal specialists. Green Horizons uses steamers to replace dangerous ice build-up with unwavering peace of mind. Our ice control specialists are properly trained and equipped to remove the threat of harm to home and limb without inflicting damage on your property.
We're an ice removal company that doesn't feel slippery—you can trust us to handle your ice problems professionally and safely. Since 1988, we've been protecting Twin Cities homes from ice damage using specialized equipment and trained technicians who understand the science behind safe ice removal.
Our steamer technology is the key to safe ice dam removal. High-temperature, low-pressure steam melts ice without impacting shingles, flashing, or gutters. While others use hammers, chisels, or chemical melters that damage roofing materials, our trained specialists work carefully, creating drainage channels while removing the dam structure. We never chip, hack, or use aggressive methods that cause more damage than the ice itself.
Prevent Ice (and Anxiety) Build-up—that's our philosophy. Immediately plowing snowfall from driveways and blowing and shoveling sidewalks clean is the best way to prevent ice buildup underfoot. At your request, Green Horizons ice control experts will coordinate some or all of the services needed to reduce the likelihood of ice damming. This includes roof raking to reduce snow load, gutter cleaning to improve drainage, and strategic ice melt application.
For walkways and driveways, we apply ice melt products strategically—using calcium chloride or magnesium chloride formulations that work in extreme cold without damaging concrete or harming landscaping. Our approach removes the threat of harm to home and limb while preserving your property's integrity. When you need an ice removal company you can trust, choose the one that uses steamers, not slippery tactics.
