I think they could be a lot worse. However, they are by no means "nice"...

And I didn't know that about the icicles. Learn something new every day I guess.

Especially brand-new stuff... geez! Unless they're only getting minimum heating because they're not yet occupied. But even then, I dunno...

The reason the icicles form is due to the snow melting on the roof, an indication that there is insufficient insulation in the attics. Lowering the heat in the building would actually reduce the production of icicles. This is definitely cheaply constructed.
