Solid breakdown of what to look for when winter starts showing its damage. The ice dam section is especially on point since most people wait untill they see ceiling stains before taking action. I've learned the hard way that documenting cracks with photos and dates makes a huge difference later when you're trying to figure out if something's actively getting worse or just stable.

"Thanks for the feedback! You hit the nail on the head—documentation is the difference between a guess and a professional assessment. Most guys skip the 'boring' part of taking photos and dates, but that's exactly what separates a handyman from a business owner. Glad the ice dam section resonated; those ceiling stains are usually just the tip of the iceberg!"
