Snow heavy Roswell roofs and collapsed structures prompt repairs
Snowstorms have caused carports and patios in Roswell to fail while frozen drains trigger leaks on other structures. Roofing firms report roofs backing up water due to ice and snow, delaying work as crews wait for dry conditions. Collapsed car ports, a La Paloma Lane porch, and several major roof issues were noted along with plans for future repairs as temperatures rise.
