"It’s been a little over a year since I’ve had my new metal roof installed by G&G Roofing. I waited this long to write this review so that I would have the benefit of my new roof for at least 12 months. I am completely satisfied with the work of G&G, before, during, and after, installation. The roof is awesome! I’m sure it has added value to my home. Although it took a while to start the install after signing the contract, it was well worth the wait. Hurricane IRMA was the reason for the delay. Ray kept me updated throughout the process. I must comment on G&G’s installation team, they were great! Punctual, competent, and quick. In closing, I would recommend G&G for roofing work! Thank you Ray, and extend my appreciation to your team."

"Excellent roofing company. Showed on time, used quality underlay and shingles, bonded, insured and work was done in a day & 1/2. When the inspector came he said they did a real nice job. They needed to take off my lightning protection and when they finished the cables were left on the ground. A call to the owner John resolved that by sending his area supervisor over in ten minutes. I recommend them highly."

"Fantastic.. Couldn't have gone more smoothly. Pedro was incredible. We had many conversations during the process and he answered all of my questions easily. I had some scheduling constraints and he was able to get everything done on time. His crew started work at 7am and finished around 6pm. They cleaned up everything and were very professional. Afterwards, I needed some more paperwork for my insurance company and he had it emailed 10 minutes later. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you Pedro and St. John's roofing services. I would recommend them to anyone and the next time I need a new roof, the job is theirs. Thanks again ?"

"We are so grateful for John Keller Roofing and their entire team! From the time of estimate to completion of the project, John Keller Roofing was a pleasure to work with. Because of the demand for roof repair and replacements, due to a recent hurricane in our area, all roofing companies were overwhelmed with customers. But even with such a demand on the roofing industry, the team at John Keller Roofing gave amazing customer service. Gary Blessing came out right away to give an estimate. The estimate was extremely fair, especially, when supplies can tend to increase in price, due to demand. Shingles were high in demand, so there was a bit of a waiting period to get the shingles in stock and to schedule the workers. But Lisa, in the office, kept us posted and made sure that everything moved along as quickly as possible. The team that worked on the roof were professional and efficient. They protected the property and cleaned up after. Lisa and John Keller kept in touch, every step of the way, to make sure everything fell into place. Would definitely recommend John Keller Roofing! Thank you John and Lisa for all your help!!"

"We recently reached out to multiple roofing companies for quotes to replace our roof. Greg Luebbe was our contact at Angie Roofing. We were impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. Greg walked us through everything we would need to know and took the time to answer all our questions. He also took the time to explain the process of reporting our claim to the insurance company. We now have insurance approval and going to set up an appointment with Angi Roofing to install our roof. I would recommend Greg Luebbe and Angi Roofing for anyone need a professional and responsive company to work with."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Alafaya, FL

A typical heat cable uses 5 watts per foot, regardless of the outside temperature. So, if your cable is 100 feet long, it uses 500 watts per hour. Expect to pay an additional $40 to $200 or more per month on your electricity bill. Be sure to turn manual cables off in the summer when you don't need them.

To install heat tape on your roof, place it along the lower edge in a precise zig-zag pattern to maximize coverage and heat distribution. Professional installers secure the tape with specialized clips that attach firmly to your shingles. This method ensures even heat distribution to effectively melt ice and snow while maintaining your roof's integrity during severe winter conditions.

Choosing between heated gutters and roof heating cables usually comes down to budget, appearance, and performance. Heated gutters cost less to install and blend seamlessly with your home’s exterior, making them a discreet, lower-cost option for preventing ice dams. Roof heating cables deliver more customizable and powerful heat along roof edges to handle heavy snow and ice, but they require more material and labor, increasing your upfront investment. Evaluate your roof design, winter weather demands, and energy budget to select the system that works best for your property.

Roof heating cables prevent ice dams by melting snow and stopping ice buildup at the roof edge. Ice damming occurs when melting snow refreezes on a cold roof—often right above the gutter line—and blocks water from draining, which can force moisture under shingles into your home. Heating cables maintain a warm channel that clears ice dams as soon as they form and protects your roof from water damage and structural issues.

Roof heating cables last between two and ten years before replacement is needed, wearing out faster than your roof itself. Their lifespan depends on climate severity, cable type, and exposure to physical damage. Consistent inspections and preventative maintenance—such as clearing debris, tightening clips, and checking electrical connections—can extend their service life and ensure reliable snow and ice protection each winter.

To safely remove snow from your roof, start with a specially designed roof rake, standing firmly on the ground and pulling snow downhill rather than climbing onto the roof. You can also apply calcium chloride ice melt to break up stubborn ice or gently use a secured rope from a safe vantage point. 

Keep in mind that large snow slabs can weigh hundreds of pounds and pose a serious fall risk. If conditions are hazardous or you lack the right equipment, hire a professional to protect your safety and your roof’s integrity.
