    Snow drift against parapet on flat roof

    Thanks everyone. Yes, I thought that creating a sloped plane on top of kickers may be a solution. And yes I don't think when the parapet was installed/added that anyone thought about the issue (sufficiently). Is there any concern of the snow accumulating at base/valley of slope?

    Snow drift against parapet on flat roof

    Anyone have any good (retrofit) solutions to prevent/limit snow drifts against a parapet? (Even though it summer thought I would shake things up with a winter related question:)
