Winter weather can put extra stress on your home. If you're in a region where heavy snow and ice are the norms, all that weight can take a toll on your roof. To ensure your home stays safe against damage caused by too much snow on your roof, shop for high-quality roof rakes and other roof snow removal equipment from top brands like Avalanche at Ace Hardware.

What Is a Snow Roof Rake?

If left in place following a storm, snow can damage your roof, put stress on your foundation and lead to leaks inside your home. However, trying to remove it with ordinary tools like shovels is often time-consuming, challenging and potentially unsafe. Snow pushers designed for your driveway and sidewalks typically don't have enough reach, and climbing onto a ladder in snowy and icy conditions could pose an accident risk.

A roof rake is an ideal solution to this problem. Using a roof rake lets you remove snow from your property to protect your home from damage. Roof rakes are snow removal tools with extra-long handles and wide heads, but even though they're called rakes, they don't have long tines like those used in gardens. Instead, a roof rake for snow removal usually features a blade that can chip away at ice and lift away snow.

How to Choose a Roof Rake for Snow Removal

Depending on your home needs, you will want to consider a few things when choosing a snow removal roof rake, including:

  • Roof rake size: When shopping for a snow roof rake, size is one of the most important considerations. To make snow removal easier for large roofs, shop oversized roof rakes from our featured brands. Some roof rakes have telescoping handles to quickly remove heavy piles of snow in one fluid motion.
  • Rake extensions: Consider adding a roof rake extension to your snow removal arsenal for areas that are hard to reach or where you may need more leverage. Our rake extensions add more reach to your standard rake, letting you get to snow all over your roof safer and easier.
  • Aluminum vs fiberglass: You'll also need to decide what type of material you prefer. An aluminum roof rake is a great all-around tool. Its simple design makes it cost-effective, and the metal construction makes it highly durable. A fiberglass roof rake is a good option for a lighter tool that can stand the test of time.

Finally, check out the special features of various roof rake models. Ones with built-in wheels, rollers, and bumpers can help protect your roof from damage. A rake or roof rake extension with a slight bend can simplify snow removal, giving you the flexibility to move the tool vertically as well as back and forth.
