Roof troubles

Just a year after we moved back in to our beautifully remodeled and added-onto home, Ana spotted this on January 14:

Water damage to the southwest corner of the great roof ceiling.

We moved the photo albums away from the wall and realized that the sheetrock was soggy all along the corner headed to floor. The culprit (as documented on January 15):

Snow and ice trapped on the new part of the roof. There wasn't a great place for the snow to fall/flow, and an ice jam formed.

We called Tobin, the same company that served as our general contractor, and they sent their cleanup crew out. They had to cut away any soggy sheetrock, pull away the baseboard, and set up this lovely series of machines:

A dehumidifier, an air purifier and a fan.

And because those machines had to run constantly for days, we had to adapt and spend less time in the great room.

It took weeks for everything to get fixed, but we're all put back together now. We had work done on the roof (a solid piece of metal that goes under the roof and under the siding on the tallest part of the house so that water can't get below it, metal diverters installed on the roof to help channel the snow, and cable heating on the roof to help the snow melt and fall off) and work done in the house (sheetrock patched and textured/painted, baseboard reinstalled). Here's hoping we don't have any more weird and new problems with our addition.
