Roof snow removal and icicles on Lidingö

Roof snow removal and icicle removal on Lidingö – 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 on Lidingö, in Brevik, Hersby, Sticklinge 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.

Lidingö's villa areas in Brevik, Sticklinge and Hersby have large plots, long driveways and many natural-stone paths where salt is unsuitable – here we grit with stone chippings. Many property owners are responsible for the pavement along the plot, which we include in the contract.

Frequently asked questions about roof snow removal and icicles on lidingö

Do you clear roofs on Lidingö?

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

Who is responsible for icicles on an apartment building on Lidingö?

The property owner, under the Swedish Public Order Act. For a housing cooperative on Lidingö 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.
