First winter and its a winner. How do you prevent ice and snow from wetting and staining edges of interior ceiing?

I'll need a little more info in order to better help you:
Is your home a single, double, or triple wide?
What type of roofing? shingled, rolled metal, sheet metal
Do you have overhangs on all sides of your home?

Let me know, then hopefully I can point you in the right direction!

Tony,

Yes, you can do what your asking, but keep in mind depending on what size of rafters you have and how far they are spaced. The roof you have now and the ceiling that is supports were all engineered to hold and support a certain PSF load.
