WETHERSFIELD, CT (WFSB) -
With the snow buildup atop many homes and businesses, popping and crackling noises could be a warning sign.
With snow piling up after many recent storms, roof raking has been on the to-do lists for many homeowners.
We do it (roof raking) so there is less pressure to the house because of the snow," said Martin Burgos.
The pressure Burgos is speaking of could be causing distress to many roofs across the state.
When heavy snow starts to pile up, popping, cracking and creaking sounds could become a bit more familiar to some.
If you hear actual cracking and look up in the attic you will see physical signs of it," said Johnny Carrier, of By Carrier Inc.
There could be sagging ceiling tiles, wood rafters or sprinkler lines, and it could be harder to close doors or windows.
Professionals suggest that if this happens, snow should be removed from the roof.
That is something that is cause for alarm, I would say you don't need to run out of the house right away but you definitely need to get it checked right away," Carrier said.
