Ice Dam Barrier Installation Cost

Construction Item Description

Roofing estimating unit cost for installing ice dam barrier strips on roof eaves

Unit Size

Ice dam barrier strips for one lineal foot of eaves.

Labor Costs

We figure that a skilled worker can install about 12 lineal feet of ice dam barrier per hour.

NOTE-- This pricing is based on a retrofit install onto an existing roof. For new construction you can probably figure 25 to 40 lineal feet per hour, depending on material and roof slope.

Material Costs

1 foot of 14" aluminum flashing per foot of eaves, plus fasteners.

NOTE-- you may substitute a commercial ice dam barrier material for the aluminum flashing.

Suggested Quantity

Goldenseal calculates the length of roof eaves, based on the roof type, overhang and dimensions.

Source of Construction Pricing

Based on job costing data from several roofing projects done by Turtle Creek Construction.
