yup i am fucking done with this winter....
That sucks, but least it's not a textured ceiling. Those are miserable to reapair.
Some water in the basement through the concrete, nothing major yet, knock on wood

That sucks man.

I can resist everything but Pete's mom.
Raining here now. Waiting for the metal roof to unload....

That SUCKS! I'm not mocking you, really I'm not. Preventive medicine goes a long way. Sometimes MUCH easier said than done, though...
Did you grit your teeth and try to look like Clint Fuckin' Eastwood?
Or did you lisp it all hangfisted like a fuckin' flower?
oh preventative would have been nice, but considering it took me several hours just TO GET to where the water is becoming a problem its not something that i even considered would be an issue....
but yeah the rest of this weekend is just getting the snow cleared and then start ripping up all the work i just did in that room...
heres a pic of what i had to go through just to get to the front of the house... mind you its all cleared out now and i am working on the roof today....
I took this pic at 1 in the morning today. didnt get it all cleared out til almost 4....
Thats rough...
On the bright side if you stick a cat in that hole and I bet you could start an internet meme
4 different rooms, 5 different buckets.
The term "ice DAM" is appropriate...
Oh, all textured ceilings
Cha-ching $$$
Water coming in from roof now, all the way down into basement, broke off the Hoover dams on my roof all seems ok for now

We had a waterfall in our livingroom. Luckily damage was limited. Our sheetrock is magical. It doesn't seem to stain or sag.

I have shoveled my roof off twice so far, working on ice damns now, water leaking in out kitchen, livingroom, my bedroom and on our entrance to our house, we almost cant open the front door anymore

Ook what is the possibility of this waters leak being a one time deal ? I live in an old house. That is converted. Into three Apt. Wallpaper. Is cold moist. On almost every wall. I'm sure it needs a new roof without looking.
Where these unusual One of a kind. Conditions with the amount of snow then freze and ice. ?
Or if it was a perfect 100 yr old house. would. This have. Happened at all
Beat It Like A Rented Mule !!
Legend in my own mind
Do what I did. Cover them with 1/4" sheetrock and convert them to flat ceilings. The 1/4" stuff is a breeze to work with, very light and very stiff. Find and mark the strapping first though.Originally Posted by SteveM

wha, if yer covering with texture, you can do a sloppy repair, expeccally a small repair, an aerosol can of texture paint will cover about 10sq ft
on a larger scale texture is easy to apply, you so have to cover everything in the room and walls

Textured ceilings SUCK to repair especially when there are patterns. I did 75 ceilings one winter working for a remediation company. I will take a flat ceiling ANY day
