Record snowfall requires rapid response

Record snowfall requires rapid response

Recent snowfall has led to large amounts of snow accumulating on roofs across the country, particularly along the northern coast. When heavy snowfall combines with strong winds, large snow drifts quickly form, significantly increasing the load on roofs. This requires swift actions.

Roof snow removal is a critical part of winter property maintenance. It reduces the risk of roof damage, leaks and structural collapse, protecting both people and buildings. To ensure the work is carried out safely and efficiently, it requires trained personnel, proper equipment and an organisation capable of mobilising immediately when weather conditions change.

At present, several of our companies along the northern coast are operating under demanding conditions. One day we have 50 snow removal workers deployed, the next day 100. In Söderhamn and Bollnäs, Takteknik i Hälsingland AB is active on the roofs. In Sundsvall, Takringen i Norr AB has been reinforced by colleagues from Solenergispecialisten AB. Snow depths exceeding 1.5 meters, combined with strong winds and drifting snow, place high demands on execution.

This is where we demonstrate our strength: strong local engagement, the right expertise, and the ability to scale up quickly when needed. Together, we ensure roofs continue to perform year after year.
