Roof snow removal and icicles in Botkyrka

Roof snow removal and icicle removal in Botkyrka – houses, apartment buildings and commercial properties, carried out with fall-protection equipment and the pavement cordoned off.

Short answer

When must the roof be cleared of snow?

When snow or ice is at risk of sliding down onto people, cars or ground where someone may be, when icicles have formed at the eaves, or when the snow load is approaching what the roof is built for. Under the Swedish Public Order Act the property owner must remove snow and ice that could fall without undue delay. Service Plus assesses the roof, removes icicles and snow build-up at the eaves and clears the whole roof when needed – always with fall-protection equipment and the pavement cordoned off.

Property owners in Botkyrka, in Tumba, Tullinge, Vårsta and the rest of the municipality, are responsible for ensuring snow and icicles do not fall from the roofs. We assess the roof, remove icicles and snow build-up and clear the whole roof when the snow load requires it.

In Tullinge, Tumba and Vårsta we clear house driveways and terraced-house streets, in Grödinge the long rural access roads, and in Alby, Hallunda and Norsborg cooperative courtyards and car parks where the snow banks quickly take up space.

Frequently asked questions about roof snow removal and icicles in botkyrka

Do you clear roofs in Botkyrka?

Yes. Service Plus clears house roofs, apartment buildings and commercial roofs across Botkyrka and removes icicles above entrances and pavements.

Who is responsible for icicles on an apartment building in Botkyrka?

The property owner, under the Swedish Public Order Act. For a housing cooperative in Botkyrka it is the board that is responsible and must ensure that snow and ice are removed without delay.

Is it enough to put up a warning sign?

No. Signs and cordons are temporary measures until the snow and ice have been removed. The responsibility under the Swedish Public Order Act remains.

Can the roof be damaged by snow removal?

We clear with a plastic shovel, leave a thin layer of snow and walk on the roof's load-bearing parts. That protects roof tiles, metal sheeting and roofing felt.

Do you clear snow from house roofs?

Yes. Usually it is about icicles above the entrance and snow build-up at the eaves, but with large amounts of snow we clear the entire house roof.
