The phone has been ringing since 5 a.m. because a thaw-freeze cycle left the whole town with ice dams and ceilings leaking, so my whole day is triage. First stop is a colonial where water is staining the bedroom ceiling, the worst case, so it jumps the queue. I throw down standoffs, rope off to an anchor, strap on crampons because the roof is glazed, and run the low-pressure steamer along the eave to cut a drainage channel through the dam, working slow so I don't lift a shingle. It's nine degrees and the heated hose still wants to freeze. Once water is running off the channel, I rake the rest of the snow load off the lower roof so it can't refreeze into a new dam. Second house just wants the snow pulled from the edge before it turns to ice, a cheaper preventive job. By afternoon I'm steaming a flat-roof commercial building where the drains backed up. A customer keeps asking why it costs what it does, and I explain that the ice isn't the problem, the water already in his soffit is. I refuel the generator, defrost my gloves on the truck heater, and keep moving because this whole season is six frozen weeks and every one of these calls is somebody's living room ceiling.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build an ice dam removal technician's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for an ice dam removal technician — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
