I was encouraged to get estimates to compare product and prices.The windows were installed and look great. The installers were on time and cleaned up everything. I would use them again for future projects."

"The inspection, and estimate was done in a very professional manner, which is why we selected them. The replacement had to be done on a Sunday. A large crew showed up and the work proceeded at an impressive pace. 
Post replacement, the lawn was clean. The new roof seems to be working well. 
I was very pleased with their service. "

"Well let me first start off by saying as a home owner having work done of any sort at your home always adds stress to your normal daily routine. When we decided it was time to do some upgrading to our home, we started the task of seeking out quotes for doing our roof first. While shopping roofers and gathering quotes I came across Tony Guzman of Dream Home Remodeling Inc. After sitting and talking with Tony my Husband and myself felt that he and his company would be our choice. I cannot say enough about the great job they did. They arrived on time, there was a foreman present the entire job who was very knowledgeable about roofing, the shingles I choose and was able to address and answer any of my concerns, all the guys were polite and left my home after completing the job spotless with a beautiful new roof. I was pleasantly surprised at the little amount of stress involved while Tony and his crew were here. It was an A+ all around!"

"I had a very good experience with them. They were in and out within three days because they had to wait for the concrete to set. They cleaned up their mess afterwards. I had no problems with them. They also gave me a guarantee that will be good for the next person. I feel that the price was fair for all of the work that they did."

"I met the owner, Benji, in June after a small fire in my home that occurred back in February. The first restoration company that we used had to be fired because they did absolutely nothing for 3 moths. Benji was a God send, he promised that he could restore my home to its condition prior to the fire as well as the majority of the renovation/remodeling and act as my general contractor. I hired Advanced Quality Constructor for the job in June 2022. The framing jobs that he performed were all excellent with the exception of the one of the beams in the kitchen that was apparently cut during the demo but it was the beam of a load bearing wall so that needs to be fixed. The demo and framing that was done in the attic conversion also looked good. The issues started in areas where he didn't have or use the correct tools to do the job. The Master bathroom demo and renovation took almost (3) months for just 1 bathroom and once it was completed and inspected it was not done to my satisfaction. Due to using a circular saw instead of a table saw none of the cuts of a bathroom with tile for floor to ceiling were cut correctly. Each tile has very noticeable rugged ridges. Because of the continuous starting and stopping over the 3 months roughly 75% of the tile is either uneven or visibly crooked. The grouting is incomplete and was never even cleaned off. In the tile shower you can see indentations from each of the individual floor tiles grids. All of the edges of the tile will need some type of trim or crown molding to hide the rugged cuts. The bathroom vanity is a floating vanity and if you lean on it it moves like its about to fall off the wall, it's being held up by pieces of wood behind it that you can see because it wasn't mounted to a stud. He tiled the entire wall and then went back to mount the vanity. It's only been a month and the caulk is already beginning to crack. The shower head is leaking and running down the wall when you turn on the shower so I'm concerned that the leak is also happening behind the wall. My plumber said that it likely is and that I should remove the tile to double check. The hand shower does not work because he used an old handset from a different fixture instead of the one that came with the showered that I purchase. The wall mounted plumbing fixtures purchased for the standing tub are crooked and need to be taken out and redone. The door trim around master bath linen closet was removed and never replaced so now theres absolutely no trim around the door and there a piece of tile that was never cut that hangs about a foot and would prevent a door from being able to be closed anyway. The tile around all electrical wall switches is so unevenly cut that you can't use separate covers. I ordered jumbo size covers from Amazon that I'm hoping will work. The hot/cold faucets on the double sink are installed in the wrong direction so hot is on the right, cold is on the left, and they're faced inward instead of outward. Theres piles of lumber that was left, feet of sawdust that was never swept up, trashed lumber in my driveway that could have simply been put inside of the dumpster instead of leaving it around the dumpster. I also purchased a table saw that I was to be reimbursed for. The most hurtful thing is that I paid in advance for work that was never performed."

"They are very professional, prompt, and the workers' etiquette was great. They were very responsible with my property, cleaned up well, and left my property in great order. I had storm damage and I would never have known it when they were done. It has been about 3 years years ago now and the roof is still in great shape. I would definitely use them again and I do highly recommend them others."

"The replacement of the unit went great. Walker heating and air technicians showed up early with a new unit they picked up ready to work. They did a professional job on the unit installation and a great job of cleaning up. The installation took about 7 hours and they then explained how it worked, the warranty, and what maintenance would be needed. They answered all the questions I had and provided contact info should I have any problems. The ac works great and the family is glad. I would recommend Walker heating and air to everyone."

"It was fantastic. The Project Manager James really listens to the clients, helped them what's best for the work, and he seems to work with more insurance company. I'd recommend this to my friends and I would use them again if needed."

FAQs for heating cable for roof installation projects in Bowdon-junction, GA

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.
